Welcome to Alberta, where we give you no notice of our choices!
🚨 This is inexplicable news to share. If in Alberta and you want flu and covid shots for NEXT year (2026-2027), you have only until December 15 of THIS year to order them.
This is not incompetence. It’s a deliberate choice to prevent as many people ..

Get your new Alberta license plates now!
You’ll need it when you have to drive your loved one to a hospital 3 hours away because the closer one is closed and there’s no EMS available in your area.
Keep voting conservative, Alberta!

Got the map updated: basically, if you are anywhere outside a major centre you'd best check and see that the services you need are available at your local hospital before you go.
We had to expand the map to list ER, OR, OB and acute bed closures in separate lists.

Did not have this on my bingo card today..
Alberta Health Services is demanding a contracted ambulance provider repay millions after a financial audit identified a $4.1-million “overpayment” dating to 2013 — including nearly $1 million the health authority says was “misappropriated” by the EMS operator.
Audit finds nearly $1M ‘misappropriated’ by EMS provider as AHS moves to recover $4.1M 'overpayment'
AHS is demanding a contracted ambulance provider repay millions in surplus funds after an audit found more that $4 million in overpayments.
