Want proof that govt policy and leadership matters in HC?
This is what happens when a govt:
- muzzles and hides active Public Health leadership
- micromanages and chooses containment over prevention in HC
- caters to "contrarian" opinion
- won't advocate that vaccines work
I’m not a journalist. I’m an Alberta dad, husband, and trades worker. Over the past few days, I’ve been reading everything I can about the CSIS findings regarding Pierre Poilievre’s compromised position and lack of security clearance. Here’s what I’ve found.

Private health care reduces costs. Right….
“Ms. Mentzelopoulos alleges that Alberta Surgical Group received better rates than comparable private companies and that AHS was potentially paying for services it was not using.”
And then the UCP fired her and the entire board.
United Nurses of Alberta President Heather Smith said the allegations demand a formal investigation followed by a public report that includes the true cost of the contracts and who profited.

Provincial investment corporations, like AIMCO - trustees of Albertans’ savings, pensions, and investments, MUST be independent of any political interference. Board and executive MUST be made up of industry leaders from across Canada.
We’re witnessing a UCP takeover.

👉 All this talk about forced recovery treatment is a red herring. Long🧵 (breakdown)
I can’t understand “experts” who advocate for involuntary (FORCED) treatment.
1. The specific cohort mentioned in this @globeandmail op-ed (people who “lack capacity to make decisions for themselves”) is way too vague. That could be anyone! During the election, David Eby said the B.C. program will be for people with substance use disorder AND brain injuries.
2. But … why focus on the far downstream tactic of waiting until people are very sick or injured, then locking them up for unproven forced treatment? WE NEED TO PUT RESOURCES INTO PREVENTION! Let’s STOP preventable overdose-related brain injuries before they happen, instead of making plans to warehouse people AFTER they’re permanently injured!
3. The headline says involuntary treatment is “better than doing nothing.” WTAF? There is no province in Canada where “nothing” is being done to combat the toxic drug crisis! Some provinces are focused only on recovery treatment, while B.C. offers a full spectrum of programs and services … but no province is doing “nothing.”
4. The most crucial element in recovery treatment is addressing past trauma. The majority of people turn to drugs because of physical, sexual, verbal abuse; poverty; loneliness. Addressing that kind of trauma is HARD, and requires a LOT of trust. You can’t build that in forced treatment.
5. Which is why we need MORE VOLUNTARY TREATMENT! Why — when there are waiting lists for voluntary programs — are we even talking about forced treatment??!! We need more treatment models, more capacity, more transparency, and more data in recovery treatment programs that people WANT TO GO TO, and we need to make them more affordable.
As the article says, there isn’t much research on the use of forced treatment … but what does exist isn’t promising. This is clearly not about helping people recover, it’s about locking them away out of sight. Let’s focus instead on upstream strategies that are evidence-based, and on building more capacity in our existing system.

Pleased to report #yyccc voted down the motion to ask the provincial government to close Calgary’s lone supervised consumption service. A small win for science and compassion today.
To everyone Smith is going to punch down on tomorrow…
Hold on.
Please.
You are important. You are awesome.
The next bit is going to hurt.
But it won’t stand.
Good people won’t allow it.
You are not alone.
This is not the end.
Good people won’t allow it to be.
Promise.
Some people have greatly minimized the free hockey tickets during the playoffs. But its not about tickets. Nate links the free hockey tickets ↔️Tylenol deal ↔️ political staffing appointments ↔️ Smith's UCP leadership review ↔️ private health care companies. Plus much more.
Hey Alberta… ever used a public service! Value it?
These are the people who make those public services run/work… our provincial govt does NOT value those services or these people…
How misguided is that?

This is @ABDanielleSmith Alberta. Where people can stand on the side of the road and in a ditch for months on end breaking law after law yelling "axe the tax", but working professionals don't have rights to peacefully strike. Danielle, you are a god damn clown.

A national expert on mortality data says Alberta has been underreporting drug deaths on its dashboard and to PHAC for several years. This underreporting worsened in 2023 and may help explain the sudden drop in deaths seen so far in 2024.
