The AB government has moved forward on Activity-Based Funding, forcing hospitals to compete for funding by performing surgeries as fast as possible.
Yet another convoluted privatization scheme instead of properly staffing & resourcing our hospitals!

On the 42nd anniversary of the Canada Health Act, it's in danger from AB's Bill 11.
50+ orgs across Canada have signed a letter we sent to PM @MarkJCarney & Health Minister @MarjoriePLC, urging them to enforce the Act to protect our public health care!
