I don't have a problem with MLAs here making more than other provinces either. We're not way above them and the cost of living is higher here as well.

What about the doctors Redford is pointing out in the media? Their costs involved in operating Alberta are higher so why tell them they have to take a cutback?
If you want doctors to buy in then cuts have to start at the top also.

First point - doctors are not looking for a fee increase, we are fighting a wage cut. The propaganda that has been out saying that they were imposing a wage "raise" were false. They are trying to cut the retention benefit and business cost program (which results in an average of 10-15% paycut). This is tough to swallow especially in light of the pay raise the MLAs gave themselves.
