🇨🇦🍁⚕️Canadian Doctors Join Nursing Colleagues in Grieving Minneapolis Nurse Alex Pretti
Monday, 26 January 2026 08:02.PM
Doctors across Canada stand in solidarity with the Canadian Federation of Nurses Unions and our nursing colleagues as they grieve Alex Pretti, the Minneapolis nurse who was senselessly killed Saturday by United States' Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents. The death of one of our own under these circumstances has left many of us filled with anger and disbelief.
Doctors and nurses work closely together each and every day to provide care to patients. The tragic, avoidable death of a colleague is heart-wrenching.
