The Nova Scotia government is creating a retirement benefits program for doctors in hopes the public money will keep more physicians in the province.Premier Tim Houston announced Wednesday the annual contributions are going to be available to the province’s roughly 3,000 doctors at an estimated cost of up to $22 million for the 2024 tax year – with the cost expected to grow as more physicians sign on.The annual retirement benefit top-ups were cited by Houston as evidence his party is fulfilling an election platform promise to create a “retirement fund” for doctors.
