"Any cancer-related and life-threatening conditions, regardless of specialty, will remain publicly funded and exempt from the dual practice model."

this is nonsensical...

🚨AB drs raise the alarm over surgical privatization:

"This has resulted in a perverse prioritization. Simple elective orthopedic & cataract cases are given preference, while cancer & emergency procedures in public hospitals are delayed or cancelled."

Oversight Matters

Tens of millions in public funds.

Sole-source contracts. Intermediaries inserted. Projects stalled.

Now Alberta businesses are unpaid, liens filed, and disputes are before the courts.

And the question remains:

If government isn’t accountable - who is?

I get it. The Alberta health care procurement controversy can be super confusing. So here's a cheat-sheet, explaining who's who: https://t.co/pcUrpMv2S8 By @moirawyton and friends

"Since 2022, Alberta’s population has gone up by 11 per cent. That population growth has driven a 34 per cent increase in revenue from both personal & corporate income taxes.

Health-care and education expenses... rose by only 12 and 16 per cent"

Not long ago, a bill tried to ban floor crossings.

Conservative MP Michelle Rempel Garner delivered a blunt, clear-eyed case for why that’s a terrible idea — and why she and her colleagues voted it down.

[Markham Hislop @politicalham]

Modern Conservatives are not conservatives. They’re authoritarian libertarians. Just like MAGA cultists.

Both are parasites who ate their hosts from the inside.

You can’t fix something until you correctly name it.

Authoritarian libertarians. Not conservatives.

Wherein Smith claims that "newcomers" are costing the province $9 Billion in social programs.

In order for that to be true, every single newcomer would have to be accessing social programs that most don't even have access to.

These are evil misrepresentations.

We’re spending $319 million on forced treatment, which will almost entirely go to private operators.

Trudeau added $150B of national debt in 10 years WITH a pandemic and a recession

Smith added $138B of provincial debt in 3 years off of record oil prices and profits. And with a new pipeline coming online

Yet I don’t hear anything from those that skewered Trudeau?

Premier Danielle Smith said she doesn't know how much newcomers cost Alberta’s health care and education systems, despite scheduling a referendum to ask whether social services to those residents should be limited b/c of cost

Nooooooo. You mean she made it up?

Where's the money going? Not public health or public education.

"Since taking office, the UCP has averaged nearly $16 billion in borrowing per year, approximately 38% more than the preceding NDP government."
