They say to be human is to have empathy. Walking in someone shoes and feeling it.

Show me one time Danielle Smith has shown this trait to you. Just one time.

You will not find anything. NADA.

Treaty Nation and Mraiche

Just as with the Métis Nation, public disclosures, structural audit trails, and ongoing lawsuits in Edmonton’s Court of King's Bench prove that Treaty First Nations were financially and operationally exploited by this insider network.

Rather than walking away with financial windfalls, Enoch Cree Nation Treaty 6 and Tsuut’ina Nation Treaty 7 have been left with unfinished facilities, millions in construction liens, and multi-front legal battles.

Breakdown of how the network extracted public funds through these specific Treaty Nations:

Treaty Nations is detailed below:

1. Enoch Cree Nation Treaty 6: The Stalled Recovery Centre

Under the "Alberta Model" expansion orchestrated by Marshall and funded under Minister Williams' multi-million dollar budget, Enoch Cree Nation was awarded a major provincial grant to construct a regional addiction treatment center on their nation's land just west of Edmonton.

The Infiltration:

The provincial government DIRECTLY RECOMMENDED AND ROUTED the construction contract to Melewka Homes Ltd and its management shell, Melewka Construction Management Services Ltd, which was controlled by Mraiche's brother-in-law, Eldassouki.

The Extraction & Stoppage:

Bank audits forced open by ATB Financial reveal that instead of public grant dollars flowing directly into brick-and-mortar construction for the nation, over $7.7 million was systematically diverted out of the construction accounts into private shell companies directed by Mraiche's accountant, Jaber-- Quantum Global, Executrade Capital.

The Damage to Enoch:

Enoch Cree Nation did not profit.

Construction completely ground to a halt due to the internal siphoning of funds. Unpaid local subcontractors subsequently hit the Enoch Cree project site with millions of dollars in active construction liens, leaving the nation with an incomplete medical facility and a massive legal headache...1/

Mraiche leasing expiry dates

"The precise commercial expiry dates and multi-year contractual milestones for the active provincial agreements held by Sam Mraiche’s corporate network are tracked across three specific fiscal windows:

1. The Primary Medical Supply Contract: MHCare Medical

The $56M Intravenous Medication Agreement:

This five-year fallback procurement contract, which was established to recover the catastrophic capital losses from the failed Turkish Tylenol deal, officially expires on July 24, 2028.

The Outstanding Delivery Backlog:

As of late 2026, AHS and Acute Care Alberta carry a remaining prepaid deficit balance of $42 million under this specific contract framework.

Mraiche's firm is legally obligated to continuously deliver medical supply quotas over the next 20 months to clear this debt before the contract hits its hard termination date.

2. The Real Estate and Capital Infrastructure Leases

The Larga Commercial Building Lease:

The active, four-year commercial lease agreement for the Larga housing facility runs through the fourth quarter of 2027.

Under this active contract, provincial funding sources route $480,000 annually to a numbered shell company directed by Mraiche.

The Tsuut'ina Nation Recovery Centre Capital Funding:

The $35-million capital development contract linked to Melewka Structures & Design, Melewka Homes Ltd, features an active completion and provincial handover milestone scheduled for the third quarter of 2027.

Once construction is structurally finalized, the property locks into a long-term 10-year provincial lease-back agreement extending to 2037.

3. The Enforcement and Open-Bidding Windows

The Auditor General Procurement Probe Conclusion:

The definitive milestone for these active contracts hinges on December 31, 2026.

Auditor General Phil Peters has confirmed his office will formally conclude its exhaustive documentation review by the end of this year.

The tabling of this report in the Legislative Assembly is expected to provide the legal basis for opposition members and cabinet dissidents to demand the immediate cancellation of Mraiche's remaining open-bid vendor status."

[Crystal Vargas @IConcedeToNoOne]

The active RCMP criminal investigation focuses on targeting fraud, breach of trust, and money laundering.

The Auditor General’s forensic procurement audits are strictly focused on the operational execution of contracts, hidden shareholder stakes, and backroom political interference that occurred between 2023 and 2026.

Whistleblower court filings and judicial reviews have explicitly named individuals like Marshall, Williams, and Mickey Amery regarding conflict-of-interest pressures.

Jason Kenney's name has never appeared on any investigative or law enforcement tracking sheet as a beneficiary of these deals.

Ultimately, Kenney’s connection remains entirely institutional.

He built the policies, created the private surgical initiatives, and hired the staff, but the financial exploitation of those structures occurred long after he handed over the keys to the premier's office."...6/

Reorganization & Law Enforcement: 2025

January 2025:

Sworn court documents from Mentzelopoulos's wrongful dismissal lawsuit leak a critical phone call.

Deputy Minister Evan Romanow explicitly warned that Minister Williams was terrified the AHS audit would expose their relationships with Mraiche.

March 2025:

The specialized RCMP anti- corruption unit executes criminal search warrants, raiding the West Edmonton corporate headquarters of MHCare Medical and Carver PA Corp over potential fraud, breach of trust, and money laundering.

April 2025:

Justice Minister Mickey Amery introduces retroactive legislation SHORTENING STATUTORY WINDOWS for independent watchdog investigations, effectively stalling active donor fraud probes into UCP insiders.

The Current State: November 2026

Transition of Power:

The provincial government formally strips AHS of its contracting oversight, launching Acute Care Alberta, led by Dr. Sayeh Zielke,and shifting all high-level private contracts to direct executive control.

The Pivot:

Banned from direct AHS procurement, Mraiche pivots his focus to the province's decentralized addiction network, securing lucrative $35-million construction and lease-back contracts, via Melewka Homes Ltd through Minister Williams's department.

Active Audits:

Auditor General Phil Peters bypasses corporate NDAs and utilizes statutory subpoena powers to review the true financial trails.

The AG’s office confirms it is on track to conclude the exhaustive procurement investigation by the end of this year, in December 2026.

The findings will be formally tabled before the Legislative Assembly at that time...5/

[Crystal Vargas @IConcedeToNoOne]

The Transition of Power: 2022

May 2022:

Jason Kenney resigns as UCP leader.

During the leadership race, leadership candidate Danielle Smith holds private consultations regarding healthcare restructuring that include both Sam Mraiche and Jitendra Prasad.

October 2022:

Smith wins the leadership race and becomes Premier.

She immediately promotes Marshall to be her powerful personal Chief of Staff.

Late 2022:

To preserve his signature drug policy network, Marshall helps place his close political ally, Dan Williams, as the Minister of Mental Health and Addiction, with career bureaucrat Evan Romanow serving as Deputy Minister.

December 2022:

Under direct ministerial directives, the province awards Mraiche’s MHCare Medical a non-competitive $70-million contract to import Turkish children's Tylenol to resolve a nationwide shortage.

The Apex of Insider Access: 2023

January 2023:

ASG Heritage Valley opens in south Edmonton, backed by an initial $86.3-million multi-year public contract.

Corporate registries list local surgeons alongside Mraiche (25% stake) and Blayne Iskiw.

August 2023:

A numbered company OWNED BY MRAICHE'S SISTER purchases a $1.6-million luxury Edmonton home.

Chief of Staff Smith immediately moves in, charging taxpayer-funded housing stipends to sublet rooms to two other top UCP political aides.

Late 2023:

Mraiche and Iskiw host Premier Smith, Chief of Staff Marshall, Minister Dan Williams, and other cabinet ministers in private NHL playoff luxury skyboxes.

Whistleblowers & Firing Sprees: 2024

Early 2024:

Internal public data leaks reveal that ASG Heritage Valley is charging the province $8,300 per hip surgery, compared to a public hospital cost of roughly $4,000.

Mid-2024:

AHS CEO Athana Mentzelopoulos launches an internal forensic audit into the $614 million in total government contracts awarded to Mraiche’s firms.

August 2024:

The Mraiche family luxury home is QUIETLY SOLD for $1.7 million as journalists and whistleblowers begin tracing the residential paper trail.

September 2024:

According to court filings, Chief of Staff Marshall and Minister Williams fiercely pressure AHS to halt the forensic audits.

When Mentzelopoulos refuses, PREMIER SMITH ABRUPTLY FIRES HER and dissolves the entire AHS Board of Directors, replacing them with POLITICAL appointees.

October 2024:

Amid mounting public scrutiny over the housing arrangement and procurement deals, Chief of Staff Marshall SUDDENLY resigns/retires from public service...4/

Barner, Guthrie and Jenkins

"While the primary operational, political, and commercial nodes of this multi-million dollar network are well-documented, a forensic accounting of this scale means there are additional institutional players whose administrative, regulatory, and corporate actions directly intersect with the fallout.

Here are the remaining figures who have been officially drawn into the investigation:

1. The Shared Directorate Link:

Aaron Barner

Who He Is:

A prominent figure within regional Indigenous and Métis organizational leadership.

The Involvement:

Corporate registries unmasked him as a co-director alongside Sam Mraiche in the Métis Strategic Service Corporation.

Investigative audits by the opposition and independent journalists are tracking this exact shared directorate to evaluate how Mraiche's real estate firms smoothly secured the $480,000-per-year commercial leasing arrangements for decentralized recovery buildings like the Larga property.

2. The Fired Dissident:

Peter Guthrie

Who He Is:

The former UCP Minister of Infrastructure.

The Involvement:

Guthrie became the first major internal cabinet whistleblower to break ranks with Premier Danielle Smith over the contracting pipeline.

Guthrie leaked internal cabinet meeting minutes proving that the Premier and Health Minister Adriana LaGrange had ACTIVELY MISLED their own cabinet members regarding the choice of builders.

His disclosure exposed that the Alberta government had EXPLICITLY RECOMMENDED Mraiche-linked Melewka Homes to build the $35-million treatment centers while telling the public they had no involvement, leading to his immediate removal and dismissal from the UCP caucus.

3. The Public Voice of the Ministry:

Heather Jenkins

Who She Is:

The senior Press Secretary for Justice Minister Mickey Amery.

The Involvement:

As the primary operational gatekeeper for the Ministry of Justice, her office has been responsible for handling the intense fallout regarding retroactive legislative changes and independent judicial appointments.

Her communications metadata are under review to trace how ministerial defenses were structured during the peak of the Elections Alberta donor tracking interference...1/

[Crystal Vargas @IConcedeToNoOne]

PREMIER DANIELLE SMITH

The Premier’s Office was DIRECTLY and EXTENSIVELY INVOLVED in enabling, pressure-testing, and enforcing these specific property transactions.

While Premier Smith herself was cleared of personal financial wrongdoing by the independent Wyant review, sworn court affidavits, leaked internal memos, and cross-referenced text logs prove that the highest echelons of the Premier’s Office were weaponized to force these real estate pipelines through the municipal and Indigenous frameworks.

Breakdown of the Premier's Office operatives who orchestrated these transactions includes:

1. Marshall Smith
Former Chief of Staff to the Premier

As the most powerful non-elected official in Alberta, Marshall Smith ran the day-to-day operations of the Premier’s Office.

The Transaction Leverage:

Court filings from the Tsuut’ina Nation v. Braun lawsuit explicitly reveal that Marshall Smith utilized the full authority of the Premier's Office to pressure regional leaders.

He was the key figure who introduced Chief Whitney to Mraiche in late 2022, pitching the $35-million recovery center as a "priority directive of the Executive Council."

The Retaliation Vector:

When independent public service executives and internal cabinet ministers, liike Infrastructure Minister Guthrie, tried to pull the land titles and audit the rapid capital outflow on the 124th Ave land-flip property and the Red Road Commons facility, Marshall explicitly coordinated the political counter-offensive from the Premier’s desk, resulting in the immediate termination of the AHS CEO and the blacklisting of dissenting cabinet members.

2. Khalil Mraiche
Premier’s Office Policy Advisor

The direct conflict of interest reached right inside the Premier's inner circle through Sam Mraiche's son, Khalil Mraiche.

The Insider Role:

While his father’s shell companies, Quantum Global, Executrade Capital, were actively routing the incoming $7.7-million in diverted transaction cash, Khalil was formally employed as a UCP Government Policy Advisor working directly under Marshall in the Premier’s Office.

The Proximity:

Legislative records show that Khalil’s hiring timeline perfectly intersected with the exact weeks that the Griesbach and Peace River apartment complex contracts were transitioned from private residential builds into sole-sourced, provincially funded social program spaces.

This placement gave the Mraiche enterprise an active, daily listening post inside the very office authorizing the provincial grant expansions.

3. The Roommate Network Premier's Executive Staffers

The property schemes physically intersected with the Premier’s staff through a highly irregular residential arrangement:

The Tenants:

While managing the Premier's legislative agenda, Marshall sublet rooms in the $1.6-million luxury home,purchased by Mraiche's sister, to two other high-level political staffers from the Premier's Office matrix.

Eric Engler, Chief of Staff for Addictions, and Ehan Lecavalier-Kidney.

The Flow of Capital:

This arrangement meant that while the Premier's executive staff were advising the government on which land assets to approve for provincial funding, they were simultaneously passing taxpayer-funded housing stipends directly to the family of the billionaire contractor winning those exact real estate deals.

Ultimately, the Premier's Office did not merely observe these transactions, it acted as the central political engine that shielded the network, suppressed internal whistleblowers, and utilized its immense executive authority to ensure Mraiche's real estate holding companies captured millions in public capital...7/

[Crystal Vargas @IConcedeToNoOne]

SO WHO OWNS 12% OF ASG?

"For years, watchdogs and investigative journalists demanded to know who controlled the anonymous shell companies behind the expansion networks of the Alberta Surgical Group.

Judge Raymond Wyant finally solved the mystery:

The Payout:

The Wyant report formally revealed that BLAYNE ISKIW was given a 12% equity stake in the multi-million dollar Red Deer and Lethbridge private surgical expansions.

The Reason:

According to the report, Iskiw told the investigator that the clinic's owners gifted him this lucrative 12% slice of the profits simply for managing their "day-to-day business".

Wyant officially concluded that Iskiw operated in a clear, real conflict of interest.

The investigation proved that Iskiw was the primary AHS executive representing the public health authority during the original 2022 contract negotiations with ASG

Days after leaving his public job, he crossed the floor to collect private consulting fees and massive equity shares from the exact corporate entities he was just supposedly regulating on behalf of taxpayers.

Current status:

Following the public unmasking of his stakes, the provincial government completely canceled the $430-million expansion contracts for his firm, Prairie Surgical Centre.

Iskiw currently remains under intense scrutiny as both the Auditor General and the specialized RCMP anti-corruption unit track his personal banking data and metadata to determine if his dual-role actions crossed the line from a conflict of interest into criminal breach of trust.

@emayeg2 @MondoABx They don’t really care about the amount because it’s tax payers money. Like spending $134M for a stupid rederendumb

It's embarrassing that in Danielle Smith's UCP Alberta, the richest province in the country, we can't even take care of 22 injured Canadian Armed Forces members without help from the government of Canada. That's how badly Smith has broken healthcare in Alberta. We deserve better.

[Crystal Vargas @IConcedeToNoOne]

Mraiche and Government still in business

"Corporate entities tied to Sam Mraiche still hold active multi-million dollar contracts and lease agreements with the Alberta government.

Despite the intense scrutiny, active RCMP criminal anti-corruption probes, and the unmasking of severe conflicts of interest, Mraiche's operations remain financially embedded within the provincial system through several specific legal frameworks:

1. The $56-Million Active AHS Multi-Year Contract

While the original 2022 Turkish children's Tylenol purchase was halted due to massive safety and supply issues, the Raymond Wyant Procurement Addendum Report revealed that the province quietly signed a fallback deal to recover its lost prepayments.

The Terms:

On July 24, 2023, AHS locked into a five-year, $56-million contract with MHCare Medical to supply alternative intravenous medications, primarily Acetaminophen IV, through the 2027/2028 fiscal year.

The Current Deficit:

Audit tracking shows that under this ongoing agreement, the province carries a prepaid balance of $42 million for goods that have still not yet been completely delivered to Alberta hospitals.

2. Ongoing Additions & Recovery Lease-Back Capital Pipelines

Because the government blocked him from securing new direct surgical expansion deals in late 2025, Mraiche's network pivoted heavily into real estate leasing agreements funded by the Ministry of Mental Health and Addiction.

The Larga Building Lease:

Financial records show the Métis Nation of Alberta operates a provincial housing pipeline out of the Larga building, paying a numbered company owned by Mraiche $480,000 per year under an active four-year lease contract.

The Tsuut'ina Recovery Site:

In October 2026, disclosures revealed the Alberta government formally recommended Melewka Homes Ltd, a construction firm heavily linked in court to Mraiche’s financing capital, to build a $35-million provincially funded treatment centre near Calgary.

3. Active Bidding Status in Legislature Debates

The status of his companies remains a major point of political debate in the Alberta Legislature.

During intense questioning, former UCP Infrastructure Minister Peter Guthrie, on X, explicitly pressed the Ministry of Justice on why MHCare Medical remains an active, authorized bidder on open government contracts despite being the subject of multi-day RCMP search warrants.

The government confirmed that until formal criminal charges are laid or the Auditor General’s probe concludes, there is no active legal mechanism in place to completely ban his corporations from bidding on new provincial public tenders."
