It takes years of great decisions to build a world class health system.

It takes a handful of bad decisions to burn it to the ground.

Hope Canadians pay attention.

It won’t take too long for healthcare to slide from

good->tolerable

tolerable->bad and

bad->desolate

Please look at this map of hosp service disruptions!

This is NOT:
"docs taking holidays at that same time"

and will NOT be fixed by:
"changing management"

the govt of AB funds/owns/controls these hospitals... FULL STOP.

Very disturbed about our new premiers’ comments about the anti-vaccinated. Maybe she could visit our ICU’s and emerg docs and discuss this with them?

All of Edmonton and people around the world mourn the loss of Dr. Michael Marshall.

Dr. Marshall’s work on trans health and his compassion will never be forgotten. We have lost a trailblazer but the work we do in his honour to fight for human rights goes on. #ableg #yeg

To Alberta frontline healthcare workers,

We respect you and thank you for all you do. We will work around the clock to end UCP chaos in Alberta hospitals.

An Alberta NDP Government will be your ally, not your enemy. #ableg #abhealth
