urgent transfers to hospitals for emergency appointments and so forth.
They might be able to get them today.
No, no, I'm sitting... It's Mark.
Yes, I'm not disagreeing exactly anything that you said, but
as an essential service, is a right for half of them to go on strike.
Like you said, as an hour and a half, and we all see what goes on in the Midwest of the country.
And it is an essential service.
So many people are going to be disrupted today, and lives are going to be...
in jeopardy because of the strike that they're going to have.
That's just my opinion.
I'm not saying I'm 100% right.
Well, I think that's very wrong to put it in that context, to say that, you know, we all have bills to pay, we all have mortgages to pay and this, that and the other, but them as an essential service.
What I'm saying is that in essential service, I'm more sorry to the ambulance than anyone.
No, I'm not saying that, but there should be a better mechanism in place where if they have all the qualifications they have through degrees and diplomas and master's degrees in medicine and so forth, they should be remunerated as nurses are and so forth.
But they said to put an essential service to go on strike, half of them going on strike, and ambulances past the hospital today, and there was four ambulances parked up right beside where they were striking.
They were probably on standby for call, which was brilliant.
But overall, I think that where does it end?
Maybe there should be new mechanisms.
in place that can be done.
Strike action for an essential service, especially an ambulance service, for me, I don't think it's right.
