This is something I've been clamoring for at the federal level, but good to see BC getting to it faster than the other provinces.

The province is making it easier and faster for nurses from the U.S. to get registered in B.C., in an effort to bring more health-care workers north.

During a news conference on Monday, Premier David Eby said "uncertainty" related to U.S. President Donald Trump and his administration creates an "opportunity" for the province to recruit much-needed doctors and nurses.

Eby said American health workers thinking about coming to B.C. will be valued, respected and will have the opportunity to care for people based on what they need, not on their earnings.

"You'll be part of building healthy communities in the best place on earth, and you are very welcome here," he said.

"President Trump's loss is British Columbia's gain."
