Province’s attack on doctors is both laughable and dangerous

By Letter to the Editor on August 8, 2020.

Jason Kenney’s cynical attempt to portray Alberta’s physicians as a small group of elites who are taking a disproportionate amount of funding to provide medical care for Albertans is so flawed as to be laughable if it were not so dangerous to the well-being of every citizen who relies on our public health-care system.

The physicians who voted no confidence in Tyler Shandro’s handling of the health portfolio represent tens of thousands of Albertans who are their patients and agree with the doctors.

Quit trying to divide and conquer, Mr. Kenney. This senior citizen has far more trust in the medical profession than I have in Tyler Shandro.
