Love this idea to track healthcare funding I’d also take internet sleuths on Reddit, Inc. as an interim step, a lot of the info is out there it just has to be put together Great reporting by The Canadian Press bringing this info together for the first time in a news story recently

Reminded of this post today. Canadian Medical Association has finally apologized for its role in the healthcare harm First Nations, Inuit and Metis Peoples experienced historically and today. Apologies are a promise of what might yet be, the future still needs creating. Lets get to work.

This season's vaccines were available in the US a month ago and are already approved by the Health Canada. @adrianalagrange is lying to and hampering Albertans ability to choose to protect themselves. #ableg #abpoli

Well said. This is really why #Alberta family doctors are leaving. Everytime we hear "politician-speak" instead of honesty it becomes more clear that those in power want to stay in power more than they want to help.

You can train ‘‘em all you like but until you fix working conditions it won’t mean a twopenny damn, in my humble opinion

The biggest mistakes we’ve made in health system management have been at the political and administrative level But we keep pushing accountability, responsibility and blame down to providers and patients for why healthcare is dysfunctional Doesn’t make a ton of sense

How to be a better critical thinker: 1. Be 10% more skeptical of people you agree with—and 10% more charitable to people you disagree with 2. Look for flaws in ideas you like—and strengths in arguments you dislike 3. Learn from sources that engage with competing ideas

I was standing beside Dr John Cowell when the Premier called and told him we had to fire Deena Hinshaw. She denied that also. I have zero confidence in her denials. ⁦Carrie Tait⁩ keep pushing for the truth calgaryherald.com/opinion/column…

While there will always be people willing to engage in terrible acts, I choose to focus on those who choose instead to resist them, who say “No, not on my watch”. I find myself intractably owing a great debt of gratitude to people like that. Thank you. #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

It needs to be recognized and internalized - Albertans take their very first and very last breaths in our hospitals. Adriana LaGrange and Danielle Smith have no place politicizing these spaces. The HCWs that staff our hospitals are not pawns. They are life's caretakers. #ableg

"Trump's message is that being his ally serves no purpose as he will not defend you, he will impose higher tariffs on you than on his enemies, and he will threaten to seize your territories while supporting the dictators that invade you." 🎤🫳

When disaster strikes gov’t’s 1st priority should be protecting people. But a new report reveals that during the Jasper wildfire, Danielle Smith & the UCP put politics 1st, interfering & making it harder for frontline workers to do their jobs. Albertans deserve better. #ableg

We spend too much time arguing like we're right—and too little time listening like we're wrong. Diatribes don't change minds. Productive disagreement depends on showing respect, curiosity, and humility. The most compelling teachers are the ones who are most eager to learn.

You really, really should take the time to read this open letter to Albertans asking why they are allowing this province to be run into the ground. #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

“This isn’t a left-right issue. It’s a constitutional one. UCP chose to use time allocation & the notwithstanding clause not because it had no other legal path, but because it wanted to set a precedent: When opposition & rights are inconvenient, it will override them.” #ableg

Bill tabled in AB that will allow dr dual practice. This is different than the status quo here and elsewhere in Canada that allows opting out out of the public system entirely. Instead, drs will be able to have both public and private pay patients. /1

A message from a Danish friend that really hit home: “Dear Americans, Look Inward I write this as a Dane, from Denmark. From here — and with Greenland very much in mind — it may appear that we fear the direction the United States is heading. And we do. But the truth is that you
