300 Nurses to Saskatchewan, Canada

Posted by filipinocanadian on April 14, 2008 · Leave a Comment

It’s for real. Saskatchewan has been having a shortage of nurses. Mainly because of lots of retirees. The baby boomers. Another reason is because of the nurses who left Saskatchewan for another province. Guess what? They are coming back now. It could be because of the new government headed by Premier Brad Wall but Saskatchewan is just booming. People from Alberta who were originally from Saskatchewan are coming back. The new government promised 800 nurses. 300 of them coming from the Philippines. About 90 plus nurses were recruited sometime in November. The second recruitment was done in March for another 295. All I can say is to my kababayans, “Welcome to Saskatchewan!!!…nothing is easy. Adjustment takes time. And..there’s a reason for everything…” Hope your stay in Saskatchewan and Canada becomes a gateway for you to start your successful lives.

Here’s the article from CBC.CA – http://www.cbc.ca/canada/saskatchewan/story/2008/02/21/nurses-philippines.html
