        HON. FRED HORNE - FOURTH MINISTER OF HEALTH & WELLNESS
                                        STONEWALLS   ALBERTANS

There have been four Ministers of Health & Wellness in the Stelmach and Redford governments.
Each of these ministers have stonewalled Albertans and shown gross lack of accountability.  The ministers are, in chronologic order:

1. Dave Hancock: - Refused to acknowledge receipt of numerous Registered Letters over a five month period; refused to answer important questions; refused to comment on the contents of Dr. Anderson's three documents; refused to comment on the contents of postings on Blog Site:

http://medics-fail-to-self-regulate.blogspot.com


Dave Hancock did send Dr. Anderson three letters as follows:
- dated Nov. 27/07 - letter labelled by Albertans as "FLUFF".
- dated Dec. 27/07 - letter labelled by Albertans as "DISMISSAL OF DR. ANDERSON".
- dated Mar. 25/08 - letter labelled by Albertans as "PASS THE BUCK" to his successor -
                                                                                        Ron Liepert.

2. Ron Liepert:  Refusal to acknowledge receipt of multiple Registered Letters from Dr. Anderson concerning "Patient Neglect & Needless Suffering". Never any contact with Dr. Anderson.

3. Gene Zwozdesky:  Refusal to acknowledge receipt of multiple Registered Letters concerning wrongdoing by Health Care Authorities. Never any contact with Dr. Anderson.

4. Fred Horne:  Refusal to acknowledge receipt of multiple Registered Letters concerning wrongdoing by Health Care Authorities.  Never any contact with Dr. Anderson.

Following is a copy of Dr. Anderson's Registered Letter to Hon. F. Horne darted Dec. 12/11 -

" Please find enclosed a copy of my Registered Letter to you dated October 21, 2011.  I have not received from you your acknowledgement of receipt of this letter as I had requested.
I have produced three documents that expose wrongdoing by Health Care Authorities within the Health Care System of Alberta.  These documents are the following:
1. Ministers of Stelmach Government Refuse to Answer Surgeon's Questions.
2. The Anderson Journal on the Hon. Dave Hancock.
3. The Addendum to the Anderson Journal on the Hon. Dave Hancock.


Your predecessors in the portfolio of Minister of Health & Wellness - D. Hancock, R. Liepert & G. Zwosdesky - have failed to acknowledge possession of these documents and refuse to comment on the contents. Albertans are asking you to 
'break ranks' with you predecessors.


If you do not possess these documents please contact your cabinet colleagues, A. Redford, D. Hancock & R. Liepert, who have possessed these documents for many months.


Kindly assess these documents and comment to me and all Albertans on the contents.  Also, include your comments on wrongdoing by the Health Quality Council of Alberta which is detailed at Blog Site: 
http://medics-fail-to-self-regulate.blogspot.com


Albertans await Your Early Reply to this Registered Letter ".


UPDATE ON ABUSE OF ALBERTANS BY PREMIER REDFORD

Premier Redford has not communicated with Albertans since the last Blog Posting dated Dec.8/11-
"Premier Redford's Abuse Continues" - concerning proven abuse by authorities within the Health Care System.

UPDATE ON STONEWALLING OF ALBERTANS BY HON. V. OLSON

Hon. V. Olson has not communicated with Albertans on proven abuse by authorities within the Health Care System as revealed at Blog Site -
http://medics-fail-to-self-regulate.blogspot.com

Since June of 2007 until the present, our two Premiers of Alberta - Ed. Stelmach and Alison Redford - have been fully informed of this stonewalling of Albertans in their Health Care and have done nothing to correct it.
ALBERTANS DESERVE AN EXPLANATION FROM:


- Our present Premier of Alberta - Alison Redford
- Our past Premier of Alberta - Ed Stelmach

When might Albertans expect clarification of wrongdoing by these two individuals?

PREMIER REDFORD'S ABUSE CONTINUES

          PREMIER REDFORD STILL STONEWALLS ALBERTANS
                                NO  ACCOUNTABILITY

Why does Alison Redford continue this abuse of Albertans?
Does she see no need to be responsible and address the issues that Dr. Anderson has revealed in multiple Registered Letters to her concerning serious wrongdoing by Health Care Authorities within the Health Care System of Alberta?  Albertans question her promise to be accountable and visible to Albertans!

Premier Redford has failed to acknowledge receipt of Dr. Anderson's two most recent Registered Letters to her dated Nov. 11 & Nov. 23 and copied in Blog Posting of Nov. 23/11.

HON. V. OLSON RECEIVES REGISTERED LETTER ON WRONGDOING


Hon. Verlyn Olson (Minister of Justice and Attorney General) was sent the following Registered Letter by Dr. D. Anderson dated December 7, 2011:

"I am very disturbed by the 'STONEWALLING' I have received by your two predecessors, Ron Stevens & Alison Redford, from this office which you now occupy - MINISTER OF JUSTICE AND ATTORNEY GENERAL.
This stonewalling is recorded.  I would suggest that you review this record. You are the third minister to occupy this office since this stonewalling began.  I hope that you will not continue this unacceptable practice.


Please find enclosed the following:
BLOG POSTINGS at - http://medics-fail-to-self-regulate.blogspot.com

2. Mar. 3/11: 'Ron Stevens - Criminal Negligent?'.
3. July 15/11: 'Candidate Redford Accepts Wrongdoing'.
4. Sept. 21/11: 'Horner-Mar-Redford Fail Albertans'.


I would suggest that you review all postings at this website.


LETTERS FROM DR. ANDERSON TO PREMIER REDFORD
These letters are copied in Blog Posting of Nov. 23/11 - 'PREMIER REDFORD ABUSES SURGEON'.


You were appointed Minister of Justice by Premier Stelmach after Alison Redford resigned from this portfolio in order to launch her campaign to be the next premier of Alberta.
Since your appointment I have sent you the following letters & information:


1. My letter to all MLAS in the Legislative Assembly of Alberta dated May 28/11 which states in part - 'As you are aware , there is a serious problem of WRONGDOING involving the College of Physicians & Surgeons of Alberta and the Health Quality Council of Alberta'.
2. Email copies of many of the Blog Postings at the above Blog Site.
3. Copy of Blog Posting dated October 20/11 - 'Criminals Sit in Redford's Cabinet' sent to you by Registered Mail (copy enclosed)'.


I have yet to receive any reply from you - why?




Refusal to acknowledge receipt of registered letters concerning wrongdoing by authorities within the Health Care System of Alberta is the Antithesis of good government and democracy;
Any government official who is guilty of refusal to acknowledge receipt of a Registered Letter addressed to that official concerning serious wrongdoing within the Health Care System of Alberta, is showing gross lack of accountability.
Unfortunately, two Premiers of Alberta and several ministers in their cabinets are guilty of this wrongdoing.


Albertans insist that you, as their Minister of Justice, take action against this irresponsible and undemocratic performance of Premiers Redford & Stelmach and their respective cabinets.
Albertans await your prompt reply".


As Albertans have grown to expect, the following officials remain silent with no comment on Dr. Anderson's three documents:
D. HANCOCK, R. LIEPERT, R. STEVENS & E. STELMACH


It is essential for Premier Redford & her cabinet to acknowledge receipt of Registered Letters sent by Dr. D. Anderson concerning wrongdoing by Health Care Authorities in Alberta and to comment on the contents of these letters and documents.  Albertans insist that Premier Redford and cabinet address Dr. Anderson's three documents which they refuse to do.

HOW ACCOUNTABLE & VISIBLE IS PREMIER REDFORD?

The new Premier of Alberta, Alison Redford, since she began her campaign to become Alberta's 21st Premier, has shown shocking lack of accountability.

She has shown this through her refusal to acknowledge receipt of numerous registered letters sent to her by Dr. D. Anderson and one letter delivered to her campaign office personally by Dr. Anderson.
These letters were dated: May 28/11; July 15/11; Aug. 29/11; Sept. 6/11; Sept 22/11; Sept. 26/11;
Oct.11/11; Oct.21/11; Nov 11/11.

All of these letters were concerning serious wrongdoing by Health Care Authorities within the
Health Care System of Alberta.
Why would Premier Redford refuse to acknowledge these letters and show shocking lack of accountability?  The answer lies in the contents of these letters which she dare not make public!
The contents of these letters shows:

1. Severe wrongdoing by the following Health Care Authorities of Alberta:
E. Stelmach, A. Redford, D. Hancock, R. Liepert, G. Zwosdesky, F. Horne, Drs. J. Cowell, L. Tyrrell, T. Theman,, J. Bell, H. Woytiuk.

2. Refusal of these authorities to assess and comment on Dr. Anderson's three documents.

3. Refusal of these authorities to comment on the contents of Blog Postings (Jan. 27/11-Nov.23/11)
               http://medics-fail-to-self-regulate.blogspot.com

The following is a copy of Dr. Anderson's letter to Premier Redford dated Nov.11/11:
"Please find enclosed a copy of the current Blog Posting - 'Health Care Authorities Stonewall Albertans'.
I, along with all Albertans, await your acknowledgment of receipt of my multiple Registered Letters sent to you concerning wrongdoing within the Alberta Health Care System.  When might Albertans expect your acknowledgment? Albertans naturally expect you to fulfill your promise of strict accountability for yourself and your cabinet.
cc: Hon Fred Horne, Drs. J. Cowell, L, Tyrrell & T. Theman"


The following is a copy of Dr. Anderson's letter to Premier Redford dated Nov. 23/11:
"Please find enclosed a copy of the current Blog Posting - 'Premier Redford Abuses Surgeon'. Also enclosed is a copy of my last Registered Letter to you dated November 11, 2011 in which Albertans requested answers from you.  I have had no communication from you.
1. Why would you choose to break your promise to Albertans: To be Accountable and Visible?
2. Why would you choose to ignore me - not even the courtesy to acknowledge receipt of the multiple registered letters that I sent you concerning the serious wrongdoing by authorities within the Health Care System of Alberta?
3. Why do you continue to abuse me and all Albertans in this manner?


Albertans deserve your explanation for this unacceptable behavior.


cc: Brian Mason, Dr. Raj Sherman, Danielle Smith, Glen Taylor, Edmonton Journal & Edmonton Sun"


WHEN WILL PREMIER REDFORD STOP THIS ABUSE OF
DR. ANDERSON AND ALL ALBERTANS?

DR. D. ANDERSON'S THREE DOCUMENTS

Alberta Health Care Authorities have possessed copies of Dr. D. Anderson's three documents for several years and have refused to assess and comment on their contents despite numerous requests from Albertans.
When will any Health Care Authority in Alberta be brave enough to comment on any of Dr. Anderson's following three documents. Ignoring these documents does not make them disappear:

1. "Ministers in Stelmach Government Refuse to Answer Surgeon's Questions"
               (This has now extended to the Redford Government).
2. "The Anderson Journal on the Hon. Dave Hancock" - July 2008
3. "The Addendum to the Anderson Journal on the Hon. Dave Hancock" - October 2008

THE HEALTH CARE AUTHORITIES ARE:

PREMIER ED STELMACH - past Premier of Alberta
   (Ref: Addendum to the Anderson Journal on the Hon. Dave Hancock)
PREMIER ALISON REDFORD - Present Premier of Alberta
   (Ref: Addendum to the Anderson Journal on the Hon. Dave Hancock)

ALBERTANS WAIT PATIENTLY FOR COMMENTS FROM THE ABOVE HEALTH CARE 
AUTHORITIES ON THE CONTENTS OF DR. ANDERSON'S THREE DOCUMENTS


Albertans wish to thank Hon. Ken Kowalski for acknowledging receipt of the following letter dated May 28 2011 sent to him (and all MLAS in the Alberta Legislative Assembly) from Dr. D. Anderson and his acknowledgment of the wrongdoing by authorities in the Alberta Health Care System. Following are copies of Dr. Anderson's letter of May 28 & Hon. K. Kowalski's reply dated June 7, 2011 -

May 28/11: "As you are aware, there is a serious problem of WRONGDOING involving the College of Physicians & Surgeons of Alberta and the Health Quality Council of Alberta. Would you kindly inform your constituents of this wrongdoing by directing them to Blog Site: http://medics-fail-to-self-regulate.blogspot.com  This site details the wrongdoing.   Would you please copy this letter to members of your constituency executive for distribution. This will assist in informing Albertans"


June 7/11: "Thank you for your letter date May 28, 2011 regarding the College of Physicians & Surgeons of Alberta and the Health Quality Council of Alberta. Please be assured that I appreciate your comments in this regard.  Again, thank you for sharing this information with me".


Albertans request that Hon. Ken Kowalski inform Albertans of the response he received from his constituents after being informed of this wrongdoing.

Premier Redford has still not acknowledged receipt of several Registered Letters sent to her by Dr. D. Anderson outlining wrongdoing by Authorities in the Alberta Health Care System. Where is Premier Redford's promised accountability?

ALBERTANS WAIT PATIENTLY FOR PREMIER REDFORD'S ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF RECEIPT OF THESE REGISTERED LETTERS.

CRIMINALS SIT IN REDFORD'S CABINET

over 30 years before retirement.

TWO CABINET MINISTERS GUILTY OF CRIMINAL NEGLIGENCE

These two ministers in Premier Redford's cabinet are guilty of criminal negligence.
DEFINITION OF CRIMINAL NEGLIGENCE: THE RECKLESS DISREGARD FOR THE LIVES OR SAFETY OF OTHER PERSONS".


Hon. Dave Hancock & Hon. Ron Liepert are guilty of criminal negligence while serving as Ministers of Health & Wellness in the Stelmach Government.  This criminal behavior has never been addressed.
Details of this criminality are contained in Dr. Anderson's three documents:

1. "Ministers of Stelmach Government refuse to answer Surgeon's Questions".
2. "The Anderson Journal on the Hon. Dave Hancock" - July 2008.
3. "Addendum to the Anderson Journal on the Hon. Dave Hancock" - Oct. 2008.

Although being fully informed by Dr. Anderson of severe wrongdoing within the Health Care System of Alberta, no Health Care Authority, including Premier Stelmach & Cabinet (which included Alison Redford), & the Health Quality Council of Alberta dares to comment on the contents of the above three documents.
Dr. Anderson sent the following letter to all MLAS on May 28, 2011: "As you are aware, there is a serious problem of WRONGDOING involving the College of Physicians & Surgeons of Alberta and the Health Quality Council of Alberta.  Would you kindly inform your constituents of this wrongdoing by directing them to Blog Site: Http://medics-fail-to-self-regulate.blogspot.com
This site details the wrongdoing.  Would you please copy this letter to members of your constituency executive for distribution.  This will assist in informing Albertans".

Among the replies was a letter dated June 15/11 from Pearl Calahasen, MLA Lesser Slave Lake Constituency which states: "Thank you for your recent letter regarding the College of Physicians & Surgeons of Alberta and the Health Quality Council of Alberta. Your information has been shared with my constituents".

The only reply from the Stelmach Cabinet was a letter from Hon. Ken Kowalski dated June 7/11 which states: "Thank you for your letter date May 28, 2011 regarding the College of Physicians & Surgeons of Alberta and the Health Quality Council of Alberta. Please be assured that I appreciate your comments in this regard.  Again, thank you for sharing this information with me". Hon. Kowalski copied his letter to Hon. G. Zwozdesky, Minister of Health & Wellness (even though Dr. Anderson had sent his letter dated May 28/11 to all MLAS, which of course included Hon. Zwozdesky)

Hon. Kowalski has not informed Dr. Anderson if he has shared this information with other Albertans other than Hon. Zwozdesky.

It is noteworthy, that Dr. Anderson received no reply from Premier Stelmach or any of his three Ministers of Health & Wellness (Hon. Zwozdesky, Hon.Liepert, Hon. Hancock) nor Alison Redford.

Albertans trust that Hon. F. Horne, the current Minister of Health & Wellness will not stonewall Albertans on their Health Care as was so painfully experienced from former Premier Stelmach and his three Ministers of Health & Wellness, Hon. Zwozdesky, Hon. Liepert, Hon. Hancock).

Albertans trust that the current Minister of Justice & Attorney General, Hon. V. Olson will not stonewall Albertans such as Ron Stevens (Previous Minister of Justice) painfully stonewalled Dr. D. Anderson in the past.

PREMIER REDFORD PLEDGES ACCOUNTABILITY

What happened to PREMIER REDFORD'S PLEDGE?
Premier Redford, while holding her grandmother's bible on October 7, 2011  pledged accountability & visibility for herself and her government to all Albertans during her Swearing-In Ceremony as the 14th Premier of Alberta.
Dr. Anderson sent the following Registered Letter to Premier Redford dated October 8, 2011:
"During the Swearing-In Ceremony for the 14th Premier of Alberta, while holding your grandmother's bible, you pledged to Albertans ACCOUNTABILITY & VISIBILITY for yourself and your government.
Unfortunately, your record shows your refusal to acknowledge receipt of my multiple Registered Letters sent to you concerning wrongdoing within the Health Care System of Alberta.  Please find enclosed copies of these letters as follows:
May 28/11; July 15/11; Aug.29; Sept.6/11; Sept. 22/11; Sept. 26./11; Oct. 5/11.


During your campaign to become the Leader of the Progressive Conservative Party of Alberta and our next Premier, you made the following promises to Albertans:


1. Create an INDEPENDENT Health Quality Council.
2. Call a Public Judicial Inquiry into the ills of the Alberta Health Care System.


I await your prompt reply to this Registered Letter dated October 8, 2011".

As of October 20, 2011 Premier Redford has made no contact with Dr. Anderson.

Has Premier Redford honored her pledge? Albertans say "no".
Why would Premier Redford select two individuals for senior positions in her cabinet who have a record of CRIMINAL NEGLIGENCE?

Can Premier Redford be trusted by Albertans?  Albertans hope so.
Albertans will vote soon for their representative MLAS to show their answer.

               EDMONTON JOURNAL REFUSES TO PUBLISH WRONGDOING
                          WITHIN THE ALBERTA HEALTH CARE SYSTEM


Contact between Dr. Douglas L. Anderson and the Editor-in-Chief, Lucinda Chodan of the Edmonton Journal (newspaper) follows with Dr. Anderson's email to L. Chodan:


"Thank you for acknowledging by your email dated Sept. 23/11 receipt of my Registered Letter to you dated Sept. 22/11 in which you state 'I received your letter this morning: thanks for sending it to me - Sincerely, Lucinda Chodan'
I am disappointed that you provided me with no comment on the contents on my letter to you of Sept. 22 which states 'Dear Editor-in-Chief - Please find enclosed a copy of my letter to Ms. Jodie Sinnema dated Sept. 9/11: a copy of my letter to Mr. Gary Mar dated Sept. 22/11; a copy of my Blog Posting - 'Horner-Mar-Redford: Fail Albertans'.  It is important that the three Premier-Elect candidates - Doug Horner, Gary Mar and Alison Redford- address proven wrongdoing by Senior Medical Doctors within the College of Physicians & Surgeons of Alberta and the Health Quality Council of Alberta as well as proven wrongdoing by three Ministers of Health & Wellness in the Stelmach Cabinet, before the next Premier of Alberta is 'Crowned' on October 1, 2011'
I did not receive a reply from Ms. Sinnema.  I consider it urgent that you reply as soon as possible'

The following is my letter to Alison Redford dated Sept. 26/11 which states - 'Dear Ms. Redford - I am disappointed that you have refused to acknowledge receipt of my multiple Registered Letters sent to you since the beginning of your campaign to win the leadership of the P.C. Party of Alberta.
'NEWSROOM' on your Web Site (www.alisonredford.ca) on Sept. 25/11 posted the following 'AN INDEPENDENT HEALTH QUALITY COUNCIL FOR ALBERTANS' - (copy enclosed).
In this posting you state 'Currently, the Health Quality Council reports directly to the Minister of Health ....THIS DOES NOT PROTECT ALBERTANS ...'
Please find enclosed copies pf my Blog Postings as follows: Mar. 31/11: 'HQCA FAILS';
July 15/11: 'CANDIDATE REDFORD ACCEPTS WRONGDOING'; Sept. 21/11: 'HORNER-MAR-REDFORD: FAIL ALBERTANS'. Http://medics-fail-to-self-regulate-blogspot.com   I heartily endodrse your plea for an INDEPENDENT  Health Quality Council (HQC).  This is essential.  How can the present HQCA function to get the best health care for Albertans when it receives its 'Orders' from the Minister of Health, when the Premier (Stelmach) and his three ministers of Health & Wellness (Gene Zwozdesky, Ron Liepert, Dave Hancock) are guilty of severe proven wrongdoing within the Albert Health Care System? Please give me the courtesy of acknowledging receipt of this letter that was personally delivered by me to your Edmonton Campaign Office today.  This letter will be posted to my Blog Site in the near future'.

I have reveived no acknowledgment of receipt of my letter of Sept 26/11 addressed as URGENT to Alison Redford and delivered by me to the Edmonton Campaign Office to Alison Redford shortly before her expected arrival to this office on Sept. 26/11.

I would suggest that you review Alison Redford's Web Site (www.alisonredford.ca) on her stand on AN INDEPENDENT HEALTH QUALITY COUNCIL (HQC) for Albertans and her strong stand on the need for an OPEN PUBLIC JUDICIAL INQUIRY into the ills that plague the Alberta Health Care System. My proof of wrongdoing of Medical Doctors within the College of Physicians & Surgeons of Alberta and the Health Quality Council of Alberta as well as the proven wrongdoing of three Ministers of Health and Wellness in the Stelmach Cabinet, further stengthens Alison Redford's above stand for the need of an Independent HQC and a Judicial Inquiry.

All Albertans should be informed of this serious wrongdoing in their Health Care System and the proposed action to correct this wrongdoing.  ALBERTANS REQUIRE ACTION FROM THE EDITORIAL STAFF OF THE EDMONTON JOURNAL to publish this information for Albertans before the new Premier of Alberta is 'crowned' 0n ) October 1, 2011.

I await your prompt reply to this email.

This email has been copied to the new President of the Alberta Medical Association - Dr. Linda Slocombe"

October 5, 2011
As of today none of the six candidates competing  for leadership of the Progressive Conservative Party of Alberta (which was won by Alison Redford) has had the courage or courtesy to acknowledge receipt of multiple Registered Letters sent to them detailing WRONGDOING WITHIN THE ALBERTA MEDICARE SYSTEM:

THESE CANDIDATES WERE:

1. Alison Redford - Elected Leader of P.C. Party of Alberta.
2. Gary Mar - Minister of Health in Ralph Klein Government.
3. Doug Horner - Deputy Premier to Premier Ed Stelmach.
4. Ted Morton - Minister of Finance in Stelmach Government.
5. Rick  Orman -  Cabinet Minister in previous Alberta Government.
6. Doug Griffiths - Current MLA in Alberta Legislative Assembly.


Non of these six persons will acknowledge PROVEN WRONGDOING WITHIN THE ALBERTA HEALTH CARE SYSTEM.
Why would Alison Redford appoint Hon. Dave Hancock to be her House Leader in the Legislative Assembly of Alberta when he has shown severe wrongdoing while serving as Minister of Health & Wellness in the Stelmach Government (Reference: The Anderson Journal on the Hon. Dave Hancock
(July 2008)
Dr. D. Anderson has received no reply from Lucinda Chodan from his email of Sept. 27, 2011.


Albertans must insist that Hon. Alison Redford fulfills her promises to:
1. Create an INDEPENDENT Health Quality Council.
2. Call for a PUBLIC JUDICIAL INQUIRY into the ills of the Alberta Health Care System.

This Blog Posting is being sent to the following:
1. Hon. Alison Redford & the five defeated candidates for leadership of P.C. Party of Alberta.
2. Lucinda Chodan; Editor-in-Chief - Edmonton Journal.
3. Opposition Leaders of Parties in the Legislative Assembly of Alberta.
4. President of Alberta Medical Association - Dr. Linda Slocombe

HORNER-MAR-REDFORD: FAIL ALBERTANS

                 ALL THREE PREMIER-ELECT CANDIDATES -
           DOUG HORNER, GARY MAR, & ALISON REDFORD
            HAVE BROKEN THEIR PROMISE TO ALBERTANS


During their campaign to win the leadership of the Progressive Conservative Party of Alberta, each of these three candidates promised Albertans that they would be fully ACCOUNTABLE and fully VISIBLE for their actions and lack of actions.  Unfortunately, each of these three candidates has broken this promise.

All three candidates have refused to acknowledge receipt of several Registered Letters sent to them by Dr. Douglas L. Anderson detailing proven WRONGDOING by Medical Doctors within the College of Physicians & Surgeons of Alberta and proven WRONGDOING by Medical Doctors within the Health Quality Council of Alberta as well as proven WRONGDOING by three Ministers of Health & Wellness in the Stelmach Cabinet - Hon, Gene Zwozdesky, Hon. Ron Liepert & Hon. Dave Hancock.

Proof of wrongdoing is detailed clearly in the following:

1. " The Anderson Journal on the Hon. Dave Hancock " - July 2008.
2. " The Addendum to the Anderson Journal on the Hon. Dave Hancock " - October 2008.
3. " Ministers of Stelmach Government Refuse to Answer Surgeon's Questions ".
4. BLOG POSTINGS:   Jan. 27 - Sept. 21, 2011 -  Http://medics-fail-to-self-regulate.blogspot.com

The following Registered Letter was sent to Premier-Elect Candidates Doug Horner, Gary Mar & Alison Redford by Dr. D. Anderson on Sept. 22, 2011:

" Please find enclosed my current Blog Posting: ' HORNER-MAR-REDFORD: FAIL ALBERTANS '
Http://medics-fail-to-self-regulate.blogspot.com


During your present campaign to win the leadership of the P.C. Party of Alberta you have promised Albertans that you will be FULLY ACCOUNTABLE to Albertans and FULLY VISIBLE to Albertans


During your present campaign you have refused to acknowledge receipt of several Registered Letters which I sent to you detailing the proven WRONGDOING of Senior Medical Doctors within the College of Physicians & Surgeons of Alberta and Senior Medical Doctors within the Health Quality Council of Alberta as well as proven WRONGDOING by three Ministers of Health & Wellness within the Stelmach cabinet - Hon. Gene Zwozdesky; Hon. Ron Liepert; Hon Dave Hancock.   YOU HAVE BROKEN YOUR PROMISE  to Albertans to be fully Accountable and fully Visible.


ALBERTANS DEMAND that you along with the other two Premier-Elect Candidates- Doug Horner, Gary Mar, Alison Redford - address this wrongdoing before October 1, 2011 the date that by a vote of Albertans, one of you three will be "crowned" the next Premier of Alberta.


I demand that you acknowledge receipt of this Registered Letter, dated Sept 22, 2011".


This letter copied to Dr. Patrick White - President of the Alberta Medical Association.

Must Albertans anticipate similar lack of accountability and visibility from their next Premier as was experienced from their present Premier - Ed. Stelmach and several of his cabinet ministers?

THE SIX CANDIDATES CAMPAIGNING FOR PREMIER'S CHAIR
REFUSE TO ADDRESS SCANDAL IN ALBERTA HEALTH CARE

Dr. D. Anderson sent the following Registered Letter dated September 6, 2011 to all candidates campaigning to be the next Premier of Alberta:

" Please find enclosed the following - 1. Ultimatum to all Six Premier Candidates; 2. Copy of current Blog Posting
' Next Premier Hides-Health Scandal'   Http://medics-fail-to-self-regulate.blogspot.com.
Candidates, D. Griffiths, D, Horner, T. Morton & A. Redford have been fully informed on this abuse of Albertans in their Health Care for four years and have taken no action. They have been informed by the following sources:
- ' The Anderson Journal on the Hon. Dave Hancock - July 2008'
-' The Addendum to the Anderson Journal on the Hon. Dave Hancock-Oct. 2008'
- Document: ' Ministers of Stelmach Government Refuse to Answer Surgeon's Questions'.
Blog Postings (Jan. 27 to Sept. 6/11) :  Http://medics-fail-to-self-regulate.blogspot.com


Candidates G. Mar & R. Orman have been fully informed recently and have taken no action.
Please reply promptly with your proposed plan of action"
(Letter copied to Dr. Patrick White-President of the Alberta Medical Association)




The ULTIMATUM follows:
" ULTIMATUM TO ALL SIX PREMIER CANDIDATES- Definition: Ultimatum - 'A final uncompromising demand or proposal - Randomhouse Webster's College Dictionary'  Albertans issue this Ultimatum to all six candidates seeking to replace Ed Stelmach, as the next Premier of Alberta:
  Mr. D. Griffiths; Mr. D. Horner; Mr. G. Mar; Mr. T. Morton; Mr. R. Orman; Ms. A. Redford
' ADDRESS THE ISSUES OF PROVEN ABUSE OF ALBERTANS BY THE COLLEGE OF PHYSICIANS & SURGEONS OF ALBERTA, THE HEALTH QUALITY COUNCIL OF ALBERTA AND ABUSE BY PREMIER STELMACH & HIS CABINET, BEFORE THE NEXT GENERAL ELECTION OF MLAS IN ALBERTA, OR SUFFER THE CONSEQUENCES


( Ultimatum copied to Dr. Patrick White-President of the Alberta Medical Association )

Dr. D. Anderson's letter to all six candidates, dated August 29/11, follows:

" Please find enclosed a copy of my Registered Letter to you dated July 15, 2011.  I have not received a reply from you, which I requested. Please find enclosed my Blog Postings dated July 28/11 ' Hon Zwozdesky Silent on Wrongdoing-Why?' & Aug. 3/11 ' Third Minister of Health & Wellness Stonewalls Albertans'.
(Http://medics-fail-to-self-regulate.blogspot.com)
Albertans are being abused in their Health Care by several Health Care Authorities:
     The College of Physicians & Surgeons of Alberta
     The Health Quality Council of Alberta
     The Stelmach Government
The most recent abuse has been clearly demonstrated by Hon. Gene Zwozdesky, Minister of Health & Wellness, by his refusal to acknowledge receipt of three Registered Letters concerning this abuse. Premier Stelmach has been informed of this abuse and has taken no action!  This STONEWALLING of Albertans by Health Care Authorities must stop.
I insist on your acknowledgement of receipt of this Registered Letter.
I request that your reply address this serious problem of abuse, and that if you should become the next Premier of Alberta
YOU PROMISE TO ALBERTANS that you will not tolerate abuse to Albertans in their health care as is displayed today by Premier Stelmach & Hon. Gene Zwozdesky in their refusal to acknowledge receipt of multiple Registered Letters concerning wrongdoing within the Alberta Health Care System.  
I insist on your early reply to this Registered Letter".


Dr. D. Anderson's letter to candidate G. Mar & R. Orman dated July 15/11 follows:

" There is proven and uncorrected wrongdoing of the College of Physicians & Surgeons of Alberta and the Health Quality Council of Alberta.  Four Candidates seeking the leadership of the PC Party of Alberta have been fully informed of this wrongdoing but have taken no action.  These four are current MLAS in the Legislative Assembly of Alberta -
Doug Horner; Ted Morton; Alison Redford & Doug Griffiths
Please find enclosed a copy of a letter that I sent to all MLAS of Alberta on May 28, 2011.  Please find enclosed a copy of my letter to Hon. Doug Horner dated July 15, 2011.
Albertans await you to expose this wrongdoing during your campaign for leadership of the PC Party of Alberta.
I await your early reply"


Not a single candidate among these six has had the courage or courtesy to acknowledge receipt of any of Dr. Anderson's Registered Letters.  This tells Albertans that the NEXT PREMIER OF ALBERTA, despite being fully informed about serious wrongdoing in the Alberta Health Care System, HAS REFUSED TO ACKNOWLEDGE PROVEN WRONGDOING during their campaign preceding the CANDIDATE'S VICTORY for the PREMIER'S SEAT.

As the next Premier of Alberta, this victor will no doubt continue to ignore serious wrongdoing in the Alberta Health Care System.

Albertans will not tolerate this conduct by their upcoming Premier of Alberta and demand a clear statement from each candidate on the necessity of AN OPEN PUBLIC JUDICIAL INQUIRY on the ills that plague the Alberta Health Care System, including proven wrongdoing within the CPSA and HQCA and proven wrongdoing by the three Ministers of Health & Wellness in the Stelmach Government.

        PRESIDENT OF THE ALBERTA MEDICAL ASSOCIATION
                                DR. PATRICK  WHITE
                HIDES BEHIND  "MANDATE" SCAM"

( Definition: SHAM - "a spurious imitation; fraud or hoax"  - Webster Dictionary)


The following letter was sent to Dr. Anderson by Dr. P. White dated Aug. 18, 2011:

" I am replying in response to your letters dated July 27, August 3 and August 15. Respectfully, the answer I provided in my last letter to you on July 21 still applies: THE ALBERTA MEDICAL ASSOCIATION DOES NOT HAVE A MANDATE TO FOLLOW UP ON YOUR REQUEST.  Once again I am returning your correspondence".


Dr. Anderson's letter to Dr. White dated August 15, 2011 follows:

" You have not replied to my Registered letter sent to you dated Aug. 3, 2011 (copy enclosed).
Please find enclosed a copy of my letter dated June 27/11 in which I enclosed TEN BLOG POSTINGS  which show clearly the willful obstruction  by the Health Quality Council of Alberta (HQCA) to revealing the WRONGDOING  of the College of Physicians & Surgeons of Alberta (CPSA).   Http://medics-fail-to-self-regulate.blogspot.com  
In your only letter to me dated July 21/11 (copy enclosed) you have made no mention of HQCA and returned to me the 
TEN BLOG POSTINGS ON HQCA with your words "The AMA does not have the mandate to follow upon up on your request"  -  WHY?
Please find enclosed a copy of my Blog Posting "AMA Accepts Wrongdoing of Medics" - dated July 27/11.
I have had membership in The Alberta Medical Association (AMA) for over 30 years.  AMA commitment to AMA members and all Albertans, is detailed under AMA - MISSION / VISION / ROLE.


AMA COMMITMENT TO MEMBERS - Past & Present
AND ALL ALBERTANS
(AMA Website: www.albertadoctors.org)


1. ' AMA stands as an advocate for its physician members, providing leadership and support for their role in the provision of quality health care'  IS AMA FULFILLING THIS COMMITMENT TO DR. D. ANDERSON?
2. ' Patients First - Reg. Trade Mark - compels the AMA to advocate VALUE FOR PATIENTS - Reg. Trade Mark - expresses a 365-day-a-year commitment to pursue and support ideas and initiatives that provide real value for our patients'
IS AMA FULFILLING THIS COMMITMENT TO DR. D. ANDERSON?
3.' The AMA makes every effort to ensure physicians are involved in the health care decision-making and their voices are heard - by government, Alberta Health Services, other health care professions and the public.
Communication is a priority internally with members as well as externally with governments and the public".
IS AMA FULFILLING THIS COMMITMENT TO DR. D. ANDERSON?


The AMA has returned to Dr. Anderson his Ten Blog Postings, without comment!  These postings show, an assault to the Alberta Health Care System by the College of Physicians & Surgeons of Alberta and the Health Quality Council of Alberta.  The AMA refuses to make any comment on this assault - why?
Would you kindly rectify the AMA's above commitment to members and all Albertans and at the same time its refusal to comment on Dr. Anderson's TEN BLOG POSTINGS ON HQCA, which show in detail unacceptable wrongdoing within the Alberta Health Care System".




AMA staff has informed Dr. Anderson that the AMA does not have " A  MANDATE  " and that the principles that guide AMA CONDUCT are contained in Mission / Vision / Role  on the
AMA Website (www.albertadoctors.org) under  " Inside AMA - Who We Are".

These principles are detailed by commitments that AMA has made to its Medical Doctor Members as well as commitments  to all Albertans.

If Dr. Patrick White is unwilling to clarify the AMA's stand on this serious problem of wrongdoing by medics within the Alberta Health Care System, then Albertans will consult with the 28 Medical Sectional Heads of the AMA in the near future, to obtain further medical opinions on this assault.

HON. GENE ZWAZDESKY - MINISTER OF HEALTH & WELLNESS
continues to stonewall Albertans on their Health Care by refusing to acknowledge receipt of Registered Letters ( May 28/11, June 29/11, July 7/11), concerning wrongdoing of the College of Physicians & Surgeons of Alberta and the Wrongdoing of the Health Quality Council of Alberta.

HON. ZWOZDESKY SILENT ON WRONGDOING - WHY?

 Douglas L. Anderson MD., FRCS(C) is the owner of this Blog Site.  Dr. Anderson is a 
retired Eye Surgeon, having conducted his surgery in Edmonton, Alberta  Canada for
over 30 years before retirement.

                   HON. GENE ZWOZDESKY IGNORS WRONGDOING OF
     COLLEGE OF PHYSICIANS & SURGEONS OF ALBERTA (CPSA), AND
  WRONGDOING OF HEALTH QUALITY COUNCIL OF ALBERTA (HQCA)

Dr. Douglas Anderson has sent three letters to Hon. G. Zwozdesky, Minister of Health and Wellness, concerning wrongdoing of CPSA and HQCA. Unfortunately all three letters have been ignored - Why?

LETTER DATED MAY 28, 2011
Dr. Anderson sent this letter to all MLAS of the Legislative Assembly of Alberta which resulted in positive action by MLAS who informed many of their constituents of this wrongdoing. Hon. Ken Kowalski recognized this wrongdoing in his reply to Dr. Anderson and sent a copy of his letter to Hon. G. Zwozdesky.  Hon. G. Zwozdesky failed to acknowledge receipt of Dr. Anderson's letter.  This letter of May 28/11 states:

" As you are aware, there is a serious problem of WRONGDOING involving the College of Physicians & Surgeons of Alberta. Would you kindly inform your constituents of this wrongdoing by directing them to Blog Site:
Http://medics-fail-to-self-regulate.blogspot.com
This site details the wrongdoing. Would you please copy this letter to members of your constituency executive for distribution.  This will assist in informing Albertans"


LETTER DATED JUNE 29, 2011
The following Registered Letter was sent to Hon. G. Zwozdesky from Dr. D. Anderson:

" Please find enclosed a copy of the letter I sent to you at your Constituency Office dated May 28, 2011. Please find enclosed a copy of my letter to Dr. P. White, President of the Alberta Medical Association, dated June 27, 2011. 
Please find enclosed a copy of a letter from the Speaker of the Legislative Assembly of Alberta (Ken Kowalski) to me dated June 7, 2011,and copied to you in which he recognizes wrongdoing by the College of Physicians & Surgeons of Alberta and the Health Quality Council of Alberta.  As Minister of Health & Wellness I am sure that you are very concerned about wrongdoing by the College of Physicians & Surgeons of Alberta (CPSA) and the Health Quality Council of Alberta (HQCA) as detailed at my Blog Site:Http://medics-fail-to-self-regulate.blogspot.com    Please find enclosed a copy of my Blog Posting of Jan. 27/11.
You are no doubt very concerned with the contents of my document 'Ministers of Stelmach Government Refuse to Answer Surgeon's Questions' which details STONEWALLING of Dr. Anderson's concerns by two previous Ministers of Health and Wellness along with their deputies in the Stelmach Government.
Would you kindly comment for Albertans on the contents of Dr. Anderson's three documents as detailed at the above site?
It is most important that all wrongdoing by CPSA & HQCA be shown clearly to Albertans so that proper corrections to the Health Care System in Alberta will be instituted. I (along with all Albertans) await your early reply to this letter".


LETTER DATED JULY 7, 2011
The following Registered Letter was sent to Hon. G. Zwozdesky from Dr. Anderson:

" I sent you a REGISTERED LETTER dated June 29, 2011 (copy enclosed). I closed this letter with - 'I (along with all Albertans) await your reply to this letter'.  In this letter I showed serious wrongdoing by the College of Physicians & Surgeons of Alberta (CPSA) & the Health Quality Council of Alberta (HQCA) with the following enclosures:
1.Letter  May 28/11: Dr. D. Anderson to Hon. G. Zwozdesky
2. Letter June 27/11: Dr. D. Anderson to Dr. P. White.
3. Letter June 7/11: Hon. K. Kowalski to Dr. D. Anderson.
4. Copy of Blog Posting Jan. 27/11 on Site:
Http://medics-fail-to-self-regulate.blogspot.com
Since my first letter to you dated May 28/11 (copy enclosed) I have received no communication from you!
ALBERTANS AWAIT YOUR EARLY REPLY TO THIS LETTER".


It would appear that  Hon. Gene Zwozdesky is continuing the same policy of STONEWALLING
Dr. Anderson as has been demonstrated in the past by Premier Ed Stelmach and two previous Ministers of Health & Wellness in the Stelmach Government, Hon. Dave Hancock and Hon. Ron Liepert.

ALBERTANS WAIT PATIENTLY FOR COMMUNICATION ON THIS WRONGDOING FROM MINISTER OF HEALTH AND WELLNESS, HON. GENE ZWOZDESKY.

AMA ACCEPTS WRONGDOING OF MEDICS

Douglas L. Anderson MD., FRCS(C) is the owner of this Blog Site.  Dr. Anderson is a 
retired Eye Surgeon, having conducted his surgery in Edmonton, Alberta  Canada for
over 30 years before retirement.

ALBERTA MEDICAL ASSOCIATION (AMA) ACCEPTS WRONGDOING
OF THE COLLEGE OF PHYSICIANS & SURGEONS OF ALBERTA (CPSA) &
WRONGDOING OF THE HEALTH QUALITY COUNCIL OF ALBERTA (HQCA)

Dr. Patrick White (President of the AMA) sent the following letter to Dr. Douglas Anderson
dated July 21, 2011:

" I was asked to respond to your registered mail package containing letters about your concerns with the functioning of the College of Physicians & Surgeons and the Alberta Government. The Alberta Medical Association does not have the mandate to follow up on your request. Accordingly, we are returning your correspondence".


The letterhead on AMA stationery states " PATIENTS FIRST " Registered Trade Mark.
This means PATIENTS NEEDS SUPERSEDE - AMA needs; CPSA needs; HQCA needs
                                                                                  & Stelmach Government needs.
The Website of the AMA states:


MISSION: The AMA stands as an advocate for its physician members, providing leadership and support for their role in the provision of quality health care.
VISION:  Patients First .  Patients First compels the AMA to advocate "value to patients".
                  Value for Patients - Registered Trade Mark  expresses a 365-day-a-year commitment to pursue
                  and support ideas and initiatives that provide real value for our patients.
ROLE: The AMA makes every effort to ensure physicians are involved in the health care 
              decision-making and their voices are heard - by government, Alberta Health Services,
              other health care professionals and the public. Communication is a priority internally 
              with members as well as externally with government and the public.


It is obvious that the concerns of all Albertans on the wrongdoing of the CPSA and HQCA fall within the "Mandate" of the AMA.

Dr. Anderson's letter to Dr. White darted June 27, 2011 states:

"I am a retired Ophthalmologist having conducted my surgery in Edmonton for over 30 years before retirement. I am very concerned about the wrongdoing of the CPSA and the HQCA. I have been STONEWALLED by the Stelmach Government and the HQCA. In January 2011, I established a Blog Site to record this wrongdoing:
Http://medics-fail-to-self-regulate.blogspot.com  Please find enclosed copies of the postings on this site relative to the HQCA:
1. Jan.27/11: Who Does the CPSA Protect?
2. Feb. 21/11: Dr. Anderson Asks HQCA for Help.
3. Mar. 16/11: HQCA - Trustworthy?
4. Mar.31/11: HQCA Fails
5. Apr. 13/11: Selmach using HQCA to Hide Truth.
6. May 5/11: Coverup by Health Care Authorities.
7. May 14/11: Shame on Dr. Lorne Tyrrell.
8. May 21/11: Tyrrell - Stelmach Sly Alliance.
9. June 22/11: Dr. Lorne Tyrrell Charged with Wrongdoing.
10. June 23/11: Shame on Two Deans of Medicine.


I suggest that the AMA review my private files on the wrongdoing of the CPSA which I am happy to release on loan.  Would you kindly obtain answers to my questions directed to Dr. J. Cowell (CEO-HQCA) and Dr. L. Tyrrell
(CHAIR-HQCA)  as both of these doctors refuse to correspond with me.
It is clear that the HQCA is not a suitable body to expose the ills of the Health Care System of Alberta.  An Open Public Judicial Inquiry is essential. I look forward to your reply to this letter and trust that you are able to obtain answers from 
Drs. Cowell & Tyrrell to my questions".


Addressing and trying to solve serious wrongdoing within the Health Care System of Alberta is certainly within the "Mandate" of the Alberta Medical Association and should be pursued promptly.

Would Dr. Patrick White, President of the Alberta Medical Association, please put
" PATIENTS  FIRST " and provide Albertans with a reply to this letter and Blog Posting.

Dr. Anderson sent a Registered Letter to Dr. White on July 27 with a copy of the current Blog Posting -
" AMA Accepts Wrongdoing of Medics " enclosed.

CANDIDATE HON. ALISON REDFORD ACCEPTS WRONGDOING


Hon. Alison Redford has started her campaign to win the leadership of the Alberta Progressive Conservative Party and become the next Premier of Alberta.

Unfortunately there is proof of wrongdoing of the College of Physicians & Surgeons of Alberta (CPSA) and wrongdoing of the Health Quality Council of Alberta (HQCA) which Alison Redford  refuses to acknowledge and correct.

Proof of this wrongdoing is detailed at Blog Site:

Http://medics-fail-to-self-regulate.blogspot.com

Hon. Alison Redford is a lawyer with distinction (QC), who recently resigned her position as Minister of Justice in the Stelmach Government, in order to make her bid to become leader of the Alberta Progressive Conservative Party and the next Premier of Alberta.  Unfortunately, Alison Redford has failed Albertans - she has:

1. Refused to acknowledge receipt of Dr. Anderson's three documents or make any comment on the contents therein.

2. Refused to answer important questions contained in Dr. Anderson's document " Ministers of Stelmach Gov. Refuse to Answer Surgeon's Questions".

3. Refused to answer Dr.  Anderson's questions on the breakdown of self-regulation in the College of Physicians & Surgeons of Alberta.

4. Would not accept her responsibility and suggested the problems Dr. Anderson presented to her should be handled by hired private legal counsel.

5. Failed to understand why a breakdown in self-regulation in the CPSA cannot be solved by an appeal of a patient complaint.

( Ref:  Blog Posting "ALLISON REDFORD FAILS " - Feb. 23/11 )

Albertans demand that all candidates seeking leadership of the Alberta Progressive Conservative Party, address this proven wrongdoing of the CPSA and the HQCA.

ALBERTANS AWAIT HON. ALISON REDFORD'S PROMPT RESPONSE

HON. KEN KOWALSKI ENDS THREE YEAR SILENCE ON JUNE 7, 2011

Hon. Ken Kowalski is the Speaker of the Legislative Assembly of Alberta.
On June 7, 2011 Hon. Ken Kowalski sent Dr. D. Anderson the following letter:

"Thank you for your letter date May 28, 2011 regarding the College of Physicians & Surgeons of Alberta and the Health Quality Council of Alberta. Please be assured that I appreciate your comments in this regard.  Again, thank you for sharing this information with me".

Hon. Ken Kowalski copied this letter to Hon. Gene Zwozdesky -  WHY?




WHAT IS THIS THREE YEAR SILENCE?


On June 7, 2011 Hon. Ken Kowalski broke the three year silence of the Stelmach Government on
WRONGDOING of the College of Physicians & Surgeons of Alberta, and later the WRONGDOING of the Health Quality Council of Alberta.
The last time that the Stelmach Government contacted Dr. D. Anderson was a letter from Hon. Dave Hancock (Minister of Health & Wellness) dated March 25, 2008 in which he dismissed Dr. Anderson
(concerning Patient Neglect & Needless Suffering) - this is well over three years ago!


(Reference:  "The Anderson Journal on the Hon. Dave Hancock".


WHAT HAPPENED ON JUNE 7, 2011?


Hon. Ken Kowalski recognized wrongdoing of the College of Physicians & Surgeon's of Alberta and wrongdoing of the Health Quality Council of Alberta and yet he had to inform his cabinet colleague
Hon. Gene Zwozdesky (Minister of Health & Wellness) of this wrongdoing - even though each of these ministers were sent the same letter, on May 28, 2011 concerning this wrongdoing.

Why Has Hon. Gene Zwozdesky Not Contacted Dr. Douglas Anderson?

THE ANDERSON JOURNAL ON THE HON. DAVE HANCOCK 


This Journal (July 2008) was sent to Premier Stelmach and other authorities in Health Care Management for Albertans'.  Why has Premier Stelmach and other Health Care Authorities refused to comment on the contents of this document?

"HON"? Dave Hancock was finally Stimulated - Why?

After ignoring Dr. Douglas Anderson's multiple registered letters for over five months the "HON"
Dave Hancock finally contacted Dr. Anderson, after receiving a letter 7 days earlier.  WHY?
The answer is - Hancock's extreme embarrassment over his extreme incompetence.

( The answer to why is?  # 3 in Letter - Anderson to Theman Nov. 21/07 in the "Anderson Journal on the Hon. Dave Hancock").


Why have the following "Health Care Authorities" in Alberta refused to acknowledge Dr. Anderson's document
" THE ANDERSON JOURNAL ON THE HON. DAVE HANCOCK " ?
     
1. Premier Ed. Stelmach
2. D. Hancock
3. R. Liepert
4. R. Stevens
5. A. Redford
6. T. Theman
7. J. Bell
8. H. Woytiuk
9. J. Cowell
10. L. Tyrrell

HONORABLE KEN KOWALSKI RECOGNIZES WRONGDOING


Hon. Ken Kowalski is a senior member of the Stelmach Cabinet and Speaker of the Legislative Assembly of Alberta.

On May 28, 2011  Dr. D. Anderson sent the following letter by regular mail to all MLAS of the Legislative Assembly of Alberta, including Hon. Ken Kowalski and Hon. Gene Zwozdesky.

" As you are aware, there is a serious problem of WRONGDOING involving the College of Physicians & Surgeons of Alberta (CPSA) and the Health Quality Council of Alberta (HQCA).
Would you kindly inform your constituents of this wrongdoing by directing them to Blog Site:

Http://medics-fail-to-self-regulate.blogspot.com

This site details the wrongdoing.
Would you please copy this letter to members of your constituency executive for distribution.  This will assist in informing Albertans".

A letter from Hon. Ken Kowalski to Dr. Anderson dated June 7, 2011 follows:

" Thank you for your letter date May 28, 2011 regarding the College of Physicians & Surgeons of Alberta and the Health Quality Council of Alberta.  Please be assured that I appreciate your comments in this regard.  Again, thank you for sharing this information with me".
Hon. K Kowalski copied this letter to his cabinet colleague Hon. G. Zwozdesky.


Albertans conclude that Hon. Ken Kowalski recognizes WRONGDOING of the CPSA & HQCA and wishes to share his recognition with Hon. G. Zwozdesky.

Dr. Anderson sent the following Registered Letter to Hon. G. Zwozdesky dated June 29, 2011 (copied to Dr. P. White ( President of the Alberta Medical Association):

You are no doubt very concerned with the contents of my document " Ministers of Stelmach Government Refuse to Answer Surgeon's Questions " which details the STONEWALLING  of Dr. Anderson's concerns by two previous Ministers of Health & Wellness along with their deputies in the Stelmach Government.

Would you kindly comment for Albertans on the contents of Dr. Anderson's three documents as detailed at the above blog site?

It is most important that all wrongdoing by CPSA & HQCA be shown clearly to Albertans so that proper corrections to the Health Care System in Alberta will be instituted.

I (along with all Albertans) await your early reply to this letter"

Dr. Anderson has received no reply to his letters sent to Hon. G. Zwozdesky dated May 28, 2011 and June 29, 2011.


Albertans await a prompt reply from Hon. G. Zwozdesky,

WHO ARE THESE DEANS?  WHY SHAME?

Both Deans of Medicine at the University of Alberta, have compromised their ethics and morals; one before a class of graduating medical students and the other before all Albertans.

These deans are Dr. Philip Baker and Dr. Lorne Tyrrell.

DR. PHILIP BAKER


Dr. Baker resigned his position of Dean of Medicine & Dentistry, University of Alberta on June 17, 2011.  His reason for resigning was that his address to the graduating class of Medical
Students was plagiarized from a speech by Dr. Atul Gawande (Stanford University).  In his resignation he was most apologetic and remorseful to the students and the University of Alberta.
His resignation was accepted by the University of Alberta,  His penalty fort this outrageous act is -
the University of Alberta has granted him a FOUR MONTH LEAVE OF ABSENCE WITH FULL PAY before returning to the University of Alberta as a professor. Some penalty - a four month holiday with pay!
What meaning does Morals & Ethics have for the University of Alberta?

DR. LORNE TYRRELL


This man has shamed himself before all Albertans.  He is a former Dean of the College of Medicine & Dentistry of the University of Alberta. He is currently Chair of the Health Quality Council of Alberta.
He is willfully hiding from Albertans, wrongdoing of the College of Physicians & Surgeons of Alberta.  He has compromised his morals and ethics and has failed in his responsibility in the Health Care of Albertans.

DEANS IN ACADEMIA (past and present) must display rigid morals and ethics to students and all citizens. These two former deans have failed.

Albertans demand that the University of Alberta deal firmly with breaches of ethics and morality within the university.

                         ALBERTANS DEMAND MORALS IN THEIR
                                   HEALTH CARE AUTHORITIES
