The job is the same, as is the stress.
If they are arguing that they should be paid more to match Calgary's inflation - that also makes more sense to me. But not the stress one.

I disagree. Stress is definitely a determining factor in salary. You are stating as though when they first got into their job the amount they were paid was adequate for the stress of the job. How do you know that is the case? I don't know if what they are payed is adequate or not for their stress, I'm not a EMT.
It can be hard to gauge aspects of a job until you are in that job. School can only give you a glimpse, not the whole picture.
