Canada has been looking outside its borders to fill a critical nurse shortage, but recruitment efforts are leaving Ghana’s hospitals short-staffed. Now Ghana’s nurse association says Canada should foot the bill for their training.

Immigration is entirely a federal matter. The provinces may utilize these nurses once they are here, and reasonably so, but the provinces do not have the jurisdiction to bring them into Canada. The provinces could not 'steal' them even if they wanted nothing more. Only Canada can. Which is also why Ghana is calling on Canada, not the provinces of Canada, to make amends.
