Public bodies are being forced to pay nurses more. Due to shortages, they are forced to offer existing nurses overtime. Some have figured out how to game that system. If done properly, you can work, for example, only call shifts that automatically pay overtime. And private clinics, both locally and in the USA are poaching Canadian nurses with higher salaries.
You can definitely make a mint right now as a nurse. If you need medical treatment in Canada, that's a different story.
