## Resource

Ontario and Alberta have added over 100,000 health-care jobs since the U.S. trade war, fueled by billions in new provincial spending—driving more employment than any other sector. But experts warn that job growth doesn’t equal better care: many roles are administrative, not front-line; some reflect past hiring delays or wage bumps; and inflation and aging populations mean the real gains may be modest. The true test? Whether this investment actually improves patient outcomes—and proves Canadian tax dollars are working for Canadians when they need care most.
