Premier Jason Kenney is here at the federal building to give an update on Covid today. I’m told Hinshaw came by earlier but she’s not in the room now. #abhealth #covid19ab #ableg #yeg Image
Kenney says it doesn’t look like we had a Thanksgiving spike. He’s talking a bit about vaccines — we’re at 87.2% of first doses and 80.6% who had both.
He says while it’s important for everyone to get the jab some more vulnerable groups need them more so that’s why they went first and got booster shots.

One year ago today, Premier Jason Kenney’s Health Minister Tyler Shandro tore up the government’s contract with doctors, plunging Alberta’s healthcare system into crisis. A full recap and my comments in the thread to follow 1/10 #ableg #abhealth
He did this with a deadly pandemic on Alberta’s doorstep. This was a profound failure of leadership.
After the contract tear up and discussions broke down with doctors, Shandro imposed loads of new billing paperwork and cuts to family doctor’s practice. 2/10 #ableg #abhealth
Shandro and Kenney refused to enter arbitration, a constitutional right for workers who cannot strike. This prompted the AMA to launch a constitutional challenge in April. The Kenney government also gave itself the authority to tear future contracts. 3/10 #ableg #abheath
