Really only on twitter to advocate and raise awareness. Always happy to see funny memes.

A brief summary of why I decided to vote "no" on ratifying the agreement between @Albertadoctors and @GoAHealth.
A thread. #abhealth#abpoli#ableg 1/16
2/16
This decision was difficult and I contemplated both options since the potential agreement was announced. In speaking with colleagues it is clear this vote will be a difficult decision for all of us. It truly feels like a lose-lose situation.

We need to start talking about the real problem with #AlbertaHealthcare and why @shandro and @jkenney plans will not work, will harm patients, and will cost the system more while delivering less. MDs leaving (and they are) is not the primary problem. 1/x
The biggest issue, is that we started with too few.
I have worked all over this province, and from day one there has been a massive shortage of MDs. Where I work (rural and remote AB) the problem is most apparent. Large % of people unable to get a FM doc. 2/x
