“Premier Smith, Albertans with disabilities want to talk about how your government has betrayed them.
And, dammit, so should you.”

Before they separate, Albertans should really take a good hard look at the US deal they forced on Venezuela.
A separate Alberta would be Venezuela North to the USA, there to be raped and pillaged for resources “at cost”.
I didn’t realize we could complain about the US fire smoke. My job has been shut down twice this year due to poor air quality from US fires. I’d like to be compensated by the US government.

When will we get a public inquiry into the shenanigans?

I’ve been waiting a long time for a neck MRI. Fell and hurt my neck. My arms have been numb and it hurts to swallow since. 24 months by the time I get to it in December. They keep telling me my care is improved with this. 🐂 💩
As someone who had a long, complicated surgery that absolutely changed my life (and saved a kidney beyond all the other organs and helping my spinal trunk), this seriously concerns me for others needing the same.
Would this also affect open heart surgery, organ transplants?
"I think it could put the system further at risk… It's going to pull resources away from other complex surgical procedures [and] other complex care within a hospital." -Stacey Litvinchuk, a former senior program officer of surgery operations at AHS.

So… my bird, named Captain was in a @iamjohnoliver Oliver story about birds masterbating.
Same bird did this in front of a guest while making eye contact with her. And finished by saying “I love you Captain.”
I’m still ashamed of him doing this. Regardless of what John says.
It’s not twisting your words. It’s exactly what you’re saying. You think you’re being fiscally responsible but it’s the opposite. It’s the province pushing costs on municipalities. If you can’t see that you shouldn’t be a council member.
This is not the take you think it is. The changes will cause people to fall through the cracks. When they do, they land in the city in the most in expensive way possible. City social service, emergency services, shelters, etc. Failure to address the root cause will cost you.
Giving someone the option of no real care or MAID is coercion. We were already more likely to be denied a vent during COVID. It’s not good when someone else either decides you don’t deserve decent QoL, or that you just could never have a decent QoL because of disability.

Except it’s not "voluntary or dignified" when instead of being offered the supports and treatments people need instead doctors and nurses are suggesting to patients that MAID is either their best or only option—this is called coercion through denial of adequate care.

Excellent reporter
Govt has been in power three yrs and still the ministers have no clue how beds they need or are being built…
They just get up there and re-announce beds that aren’t even in the plan to plan stages…
Alberta govts & AHS have known for at least 10 years that Edmonton is dangerously short on hospital beds.
I wrote this article about it 3 years ago.
The UCP cancelled the South Edmonton Hospital and started an Alberta is Calling campaign. #ableg
