The provincial government has for years kept a hand in the contracting-out of private surgeries through Alberta Health Services, despite repeated comments by the premier and health minister that any potential issues with procurement are AHS's own responsibility.
October's directive on chartered surgical centres, LaGrange notes that the Provincial Health Agencies Act allows the minister to "do any thing the minister considers necessary to carry out the minister's responsibilities for the strategic direction of the health system."

Take your division and your hatred somewhere else.
Canada has had a belly full.
We're breaking up.
It's not us.
It's YOU.
Elbows UP 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
The convoy crew held the people of Ottawa hostage and tried to divide people with rage politics.
No wonder they are freaked out by Canadian solidarity and goodwill.
They promote bitterness.
We stand for a better nation.
#elbowsup my friends Canada is strong.

Price comparisons of surgeries done at private facilities vs AHS costs, courtesy of the new documents obtained by the Globe and Mail.

Given what has been going on within the public health care system, especially the ongoing closures in rural Alberta, this data is horrifying.

An excellent 'big picture" analysis about the levers being used to transition to an oligarchy.
Make no mistake: Trump’s first week was a catastrophe for many vulnerable people. But the biggest story was his startling initial moves from democracy to oligarchy.

My hope lies in Americans noticing this. robertreich.substack.com/p/trumps-fir...
