A vote in favour of seniority – and against the Ontario doctor deal
Perhaps the most important of several reasons why I will vote against the tentative Ontario Medical Association-Ontario Ministry of Health Physicians Services Agreement is the abandonment of the Service Recognition program. Personal economic loss is not a consideration here, since I now work to keep the brain from boredom rather than because I have to. But relinquishing this single item illustrates better than any other I can think of why the OMA not only seems to have lost its way, but also seems befuddled in its role as bargaining agent.
