Some new nurse clinicians in Quebec face significant salary

A Montreal-area nurse is considering leaving Quebec after finding out that she will be making $10 per-hour less than others in the same position at the same hospital. Union leaders say while some establishments have been paying nurse clinicians based on rules outlined in the collective agreement, others have been incentivizing them and paying them more to recognize additional schooling. As Global's Felicia Parrillo reports, the practice is no longer being tolerated by Quebec's Health Ministry.
