STELMACH REFUSES COMMENT ON MINISTERS ABUSE

PREMIER STELMACH REFUSES TO COMMENT ON DOCUMENT


Premier Stelmach has been in possession of the document of Douglas L. Anderson MD., FRCS(C) for many months, entitled - "Ministers of Stelmach Government Refuse to Answer Surgeon's Questions".

The document reads as follows:

"Two ministers of Health & Wellness in the Stelmach Government along with their deputies have refused to even acknowledge receipt of numerous registered letters concerning Patient Neglect & Needless Suffering, yet alone discuss serious contents of these letters.  These letters were sent to the following persons from Dr. Douglas L. Anderson (an active ophthalmic surgeon in Edmonton for over 30 years before retirement).

                        Dave Hancock & Deputy Ms. P. Meade

                        Ron Liepert & Deputy Ms. L. Miller

Unfortunately the former Minister of Justice, Ron Stevens also refused to acknowledge receipt of several registered letters sent to him by Dr. Anderson concerning Patient Neglect & Needless Suffering and did not answer important questions.

Premier Stelmach ignored numerous Registered Letters sent to him by Dr. Anderson concerning the above neglect by his ministers (Addendum to The Anderson Journal on Hon. Dave Hancock - Oct./08).

Albertans consider it a basic courtesy to at least acknowledge important correspondence.

Dr. Anderson presented four important questions to all of the above individuals but no one in the Stelmach Government will address them.  The questions are:

1. Would you please confirm for me my understanding that the Government of Alberta has the ultimate & final responsibility & authority of assuring that all Albertans receive the best possible health care?

2. Why did it take five months of receiving numerous registered letters concerning Patient Neglect & Needless Suffering, before the Department of Health & Wellness (Minister Dave Hancock) was stimulated to contact Dr. Anderson?

3. Are the Senior Staff Doctors of the College of Physicians & Surgeons of Alberta and the Medical Doctors serving on the Council of the College, 'Regulated Members' of the College?

4. Why was Ms. P. Meade appointed to HEAD the new Health Super Board after she demonstrated clearly unethical & irresponsible performance while serving as Deputy Minister of Health & Wellness?

This behavior of the Stelmach Government is a blatant affront to democracy.  This appalling behavior demands public exposure and correction".

Why would Premier Stelmach not convey to Albertans his analysis of this document?
Instead of dealing with his ministers in a responsible fashion, Premier Stelmach protects them and hides their gross negligence from the public.

ALBERTANS REQUIRE COMMUNICATION FROM PREMIER STELMACH




                        AN OPEN PUBLIC JUDICIAL INQUIRY
                                  into health care for Albertans
                                        IS ESSENTIAL

STELMACH LOSES HONOR

over 30 years before retirement.

PREMIER ED STELMACH LOSES HONOR


Many Albertans regret to see Premier Stelmach leave his office of Premier of Alberta, with loss of honor.  However, Premier Stelmach has demonstrated several actions and lack of actions within the Alberta Health Care System that are far from honorable and are truly grossly negligent.

1. Refusing to communicate: Ed Stelmach has ignored numerous Registered Letters (30+) sent to him from Douglas L. Anderson (retired Eye Surgeon) over a period of almost four years, concerning gross neglect by several of his cabinet ministers over concerns of Patient Neglect & Needless Suffering.  The most recent Registered Letter sent to him by Dr. Anderson was dated March 2, 2011.  The Premier has not even shown the courtesy of acknowledging receipt of a single letter!

2. Refusing to address Dr. Anderson's three documents:
     (sent to him by Registered Mail many months ago)
- "Ministers of Stelmach Government Refuse to Answer Surgeon's Questions";
- "The Anderson Journal on the Hon. Dave Hancock";
- "Addendum to the Anderson Journal on the Hon. Dave Hancock";

3. Refusing to answer Four Important Questions that many Albertans have asked him (contained in the document above "Ministers --- Questions")  Ref to Blog Site: Http://medics-fail-to-self-regulate.blogspot.com.

4. Protecting Ministers in his cabinet (present & past) from public exposure of their gross negligence concerning Patient Neglect & Needless Suffering, and for not doing the honorable thing of taking responsibility with decisive action.

5. Protecting himself and the other nine members of the "Infamous Ten", Health Care Authorities of Alberta, from public exposure of their gross negligence. (Blog of April 3, 2011).

6. Authorizing a "REVIEW" of very limited scope of health issues by the Health Quality Council of Alberta (HQCA) behind closed doors even though the HQCA has been accused of gross negligence and comprises two members of the "Infamous Ten".


7. Resists authorizing an OPEN PUBLIC JUDICIAL INQUIRY which would be broad in scope, honest (under oath) and would expose all errors in the Alberta Health Care System.




         PREMIER STELMACH IS HIDING AND NOT BEING HONEST
                       Communication with Albertans is essential

ALBERTANS ACCUSE INFAMOUS TEN


Albertans have accused the following ten Health Care Authorities with Gross Negligence within the
Alberta Health Care System:
(refer to Blog Posting Apr. 1/11 - "Stelmach Lacks Accountability").

1. Ed Stelmach                (Premier of Alberta)
2. Dave Hancock            (Previous Minister of Health & Wellness)
3. Ron Liepert                (Previous Minister of Health & Wellness)
4. Ron Stevens               (Previous Minister of Justice)
5. Alison Redford           (Previous Minister of Justice)
6. Dr. Trevor Theman    (Registrar - CPSA)
7. Dr. James Bell            (Past President of Council of CPSA)
8. Dr. Harvey Woytiuk  (Investigation Chairman of CPSA patient complaint file 060421.1.4)
9. Dr. John Cowell         (CEO - HQCA)
10. Dr. Lorne Tyrrell      (CHAIR - HQCA)

These accusations are based on only the truth.

Albertans would expect that if any accusation was considered false, there would be an immediate challenge.  No challenge, is therefore accepting accusations as the truth.

"SICKNESS" WITHIN ALBERTA HEALTH CARE SYSTEM


Albertans need desperately to "flush-out" Sickness from the system. Those authorities within the Alberta Health Care System who have been grossly negligent must be made accountable for their actions and lack of actions. It is not possible for a "REVIEW" by the Health Quality Council of Alberta
(behind Closed Doors) to accomplish this issue of accountability, especially when the HQCA has been grossly negligent and lacks accountability itself!

The only way the "Sickness" can be flushed from the Alberta Health Care System is through an OPEN PUBLIC JUDICIAL INQUIRY.
The infamous ten should welcome this as the truth will be revealed under oath.


PREMIER STELMACH STILL REFUSES TO COMMUNICATE


Albertans are being abused by Premier Stelmach through his WEAPON OF SILENCE.
Albertans have been waiting for years to have Premier Stelmach address Dr. Anderson's
document - "Ministers of Stelmach Government Refuse to Answer Surgeon's Questions" -
Blog Posting Jan. 27/11 (http://medics-fail-to-self-regulate.blogspot.com)

Albertans will be informed of any communication or lack of communication by Premier Stelmach or any other member of the infamous ten via the above Blog Site.
