Not living under fascism and the threat of going to prison for doing your job is worth a pay cut for some. That said, we shouldn't underpay medical professionals.

They're already very well paid. A bit too much in my opinion. Sure they have a lot of responsibilities and there's a lot of risks. But so do engineers, and they're not even close to what medical professionals do. (Correct me if I'm wrong though)

Edit:

Here's a link with data about medical professional salaries in Canada:
