Doctors to rally against Bill 2 this Sunday

Doctors and medical students plan to rally against Quebec’s new legislation, Bill 2, which modifies the remuneration structure for doctors Sunday afternoon.

Specialists, residents and family doctors belonging to multiple unions will gather at the Bell Centre to call for the suspension of Bill 2.

In addition to linking doctors’ salary to performance metrics, the law also imposes restrictions on collective action, such as the pressure tactics to not teach medical students which doctors used in the past few months.

This weekend’s rally in Montreal will follow last Saturday’s demonstration in front of the National Assembly in Quebec City where over 1,000 people attended.
