U.S. Health-Care Workers Relocating to Nova Scotia

Heather O’Dell, a newly qualified nurse in Vermont, moved to Halifax, Nova Scotia, fearing for her safety under a potential Trump re-election. She joined many American healthcare workers relocating for a more welcoming environment, as Nova Scotia Health reported an increase in such hires. Similarly, Steve and Matt Ortiz, fleeing anti-2SLGBTQ+ sentiments in Florida, found a supportive community in Nova Scotia, significantly reducing their stress. A volunteer-led initiative, started by Tod Maffin, aims to assist more American healthcare professionals in relocating to Canada.
