UCP STOPS TRACKING WAIT LIST DATA, ALBERTANS SUFFER AND SOME DIE
EDMONTON – Albertans are suffering in extreme pain, and some are even dying while waiting for surgery, diagnostics, or treatment, according to a recent report. 🧵 The report revealed that more than 15,000 Canadians died in 2023-24 alone before receiving surgery or diagnostic information. But there is a huge hole in the data so the think tank believes that number could be higher.

Yesterday, Alberta Health Services reported that every Edmonton hospital is pushing patients into hallways in an attempt to free up space in overwhelmed emergency rooms. 🧵1/8 Hallway medicine is an urgent signal of a healthcare system in crisis. My heart goes out to all the Albertans who are being treated in a busy hospital hallway, to their families, and all the frontline healthcare professionals being forced into this situation. 2/8

Since the start of the school year the #UCP refused to contact-trace cases of #COVID19 in #abed schools & they didn’t require close contacts to isolate. We know via a leaked document the UCP deliberately covered up info gathered by AHS about the spread of #Covid19 in schools. 1/3 The document shows numerous schools with dozens of confirmed #COVID19 cases in the Central Zone. @JasonCoppingAB and @AdrianaLaGrange had this information and they covered it up. They hid it from students, staff and families at these schools. That is gross negligence. 2/3

So @TracyAllardUCP acknowledges that this @jkenney @AdrianaLaGrange curriculum is a mess and that it needs to be stopped. Albertans have been telling all MLAs this for months. Keep it up parents, educators, students and academics. See the 6 page letter below. #ableg #abed

#ableg documents prove that @AdrianaLaGrange lied to Albertans about maintaining school funding. We knew #abed Budget 2019 was short of school districts' June expectations, but now we have proof it's also $135 million below 2018 funding levels. 1/4 @AdrianaLaGrange Minister @AdrianaLaGrange can't spin this away. Documents from her own dept, found by @albertateachers through a FOIP request, leave no doubt that @jkenney is paying for his $4.7B corporate handout by taking away from Alberta schoolchildren and their families. #ableg #abed
