A Canadian woman who spent decades impersonating nurses and other professionals by using fake identities was sentenced Friday to seven years in prison for fraud.

Brigitte Cleroux, 50, was arrested in Ottawa last August after her latest deceit was discovered by a colleague seeking to file a complaint against her with a governing body for nurses and an imposter alert popped up.

Ontario Court Justice Robert Wadden was quoted by public broadcaster CBC as saying her fraud struck "at the core of the trust our society puts in our health-care system."
