I don't think doctors should be forced to violate their own personal beliefs. This will open the flood gates to all kinds of unwarranted complaints. I feel that this will also encourage doctors to move to a more friendly region that does not force them to violate their belief system. We are already having issues finding qualified doctors for Alberta, actions such as this would make many look elsewhere to practice medicine. I feel many doctors that are close to retirement will just also shut down their practices in Alberta and be done with the whole sector. I feel this move is a knee jerk reaction to many of the demands coming from the federal government which is based more on ideology than actual facts. The CPSA may be opening a pandora's box here in my opinion if they go through with these changes.
