Health Centre plan sparks clash over Bill 48 role in The Pas
The Pas town council rejects a Type II Health Centre integration proposal citing Bill 48 constraints and tax burden risks. The plan would relocate Mental Health and Social Development staff to St. Anthony's under Hospital Board oversight, tying budgets and services across The Pas area. Next steps include further discussion between the Hospital Board, Health and Social Development, and local doctors.

Hospital wage paybacks and northern allowance stance
The article notes no wage increases for some employees while others gain as rates standardize province wide. Full time hospital staff face an average payback of 120 dollars, with single and married totals rising to 450 and 900 dollars respectively if the northern allowance approval is withheld. Magnusson says the AIB ruling is being reviewed with the union, and no action will occur until ALB guidance on northern allowances is received.
