[Jon Meddings @JMeddings]

Another extremely perceptive analysis here.

AB, the richest province, is also the only large province to have *decreased* hospital funding over the last decade.

The result? Dramatic increases in ER wait times and ER deaths.

Does GoA think this cost-effective?

With all the talk about the UCPs $50M non-binding questionnaire... it shouldn't be forgotten almost 3M ABs had their private information leaked...

A “fiercely loyal” Canadian would not have spent two years trying to burn down Canada.

A “fiercely loyal” Canadian would not have made a deal with separatists to give them everything they wanted.

A “fiercely loyal” Canadian would not ride the fence and only say she stood for Canada when it became politically convenient.

Danielle Smith is not an innocent bystander. She cannot blame 700,000 Albertans for this. She has been driving the separatist bus the entire time.

@ABFreePress @ctvedmonton Why did you cut off the rest of the page?? Others have posted it and the box was checked to have the question put to the legislature not a provincial referendum.

[The Breakdown @TheBreakdownAB]

Today, Rajan Sawhney had the opportunity to be a deciding vote and stop the madness of a referendum on separation.

She did not.

And at least one person in the Gallery called her and the rest of the UCP out.

(Watch to the end)

Sickening, how far has the Data breach reached?

[The Breakdown @TheBreakdownAB]

Brandon Lunty…

Who was involved in one of the most agregious breeches of parliamentary rules in recent history just yesterda…

Has been appointed as government whip.

Smith rewards loyalty, not competence.

Danielle Smith just promoted Jason Nixon to Finance Minister today….replacing Nate Horner who resigned in disgust over the separation referendum

Let’s talk about who Jason Nixon ACTUALLY is.. and it’s NOT good

[Hon. Thomas A. Lukaszuk @LukaszukAB]

.@ABDanielleSmith now we know.

You decided to give separatists a referendum and you already pre-recorded your tomorrow’s TV announcement, before the Legislature committee even had a chance to vote on the #ForeverCanadian petition.

The 500,000 Albertans don’t matter.

Fresh blog: Six reasons to stop relying on the NPi (neurological pupil index)

👁️ NPi is based on a secret, proprietary formula used by one company

👁️ The neuroICU field was somehow convinced that we're too stupid to understand pupillometry tracings, so we need the NPi...(#1/2)

Can the staffer who manages this for @Dave_Eby actually pass this along. It’s impressive he is screwing this up https://t.co/8RR5I4YNJ0

ScvO2 is so hot right now.

About a decade ago we had a patient in shock with terrible echo windows. ScvO2 was high, so the team thought sepsis. Antibiotics failed. Autopsy showed MI.

We had an M&M conference.

Everyone was confused about why the ScvO2 misled us.

Pulmonary teaching case: you are called to the bedside of a 60yo man who was admitted for pneumonia a week ago. You were called because “he coughed and now his chest is PULSATING!”

This is what you see at the site of a previously removed chest drain:

What’s the diagnosis?
