      PREMIER "ED" - RUNNING SCARED - REFUSES TO COMMUNICATE


Since Premier Stelmach's weekly progress report of Apr. 17 - 24, 2011, Ed Stelmach has made no progress and continues to refuse to communicate with Albertans. He continues to abuse Albertans by
STONEWALLING.

Since his PROGRESS  REPORT of April 24, 2011 he has continued to ignore:

1. Dr. D. Anderson's three documents:
- "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".

2. The gross negligence suffered by Dr. D. Anderson at the hands of the Health Quality Council of Alberta  (Dr. J. Cowell - CEO & Dr. L. Tyrrell - Chair).

3. Dr. D. Anderson's PRIVATE FILES ON THE CPSA "hihacked" by HQCA.

4. BLOG POSTING April 27/11 (emailed to all Alberta MLAS)
      (http://medics-fail-to-self-regulate.blogspot.com)
    in which evidence is provided that Hon. Dave Hancock is:
     - dishonorable
     - is guilty of Criminal Negligence
     - is a "phony"
     - is irresponsible

   in which evidence is provided that Premier Stelmach refuses to take responsibility for the irresponsibility of his ministers and is a passive observer on the sidelines!

WHY IS PREMIER STELMACH RUNNING SCARED?


Ed Stelmach does not want Albertans to know the truth about the negligence of the Health Care Authorities in Alberta (of which he and his cabinet are central components). This is why he insists on limiting the "probe" into this neglect, by a REVIEW by the HQCA which is recognized by Albertans as completely inadequate.  How could the gross negligence of Premier Stelmach, his cabinet, the CPSA and the HQCA be given public exposure by a "review" conducted by the HQCA.  The HQCA has shown clearly its refusal to expose the Stelmach Government & the CPSA in wrongdoing (Blog Postings Jan. 27 - May 1, 2011). A REVIEW by the HQCA will not expose the Stelmach Government, the CPSA or the HQCA to the wrongdoings of these three Health Care Authorities.
To " CLEAR THE AIR " these wrongdoings must be given public exposure - this demands a Judicial Inquiry.  AN OPEN PUBLIC JUDICIAL INQUIRY IS ESSENTIAL.


Premier Stelmach is fighting furiously to prevent this inquiry, as it will present the "guilty" to public exposure.

Would Premier Stelmach please show his authority over the quality of health care for Albertans and
FORCE DR. LORNE TYRRELL (Chair of HQCA) to return to Dr. D. Anderson his private files, files that incriminate the College of Physicians & Surgeons of Alberta, of wrongdoing?
It would appear that Premier Stelmach is assisting in the hiding of evidence of abuse of Albertans by
Health Care Authorities in Alberta.

Would Premier Stelmach, Dave Hancock & Ron Liepert show some courage & honesty by addressing Dr. D. Anderson's three documents and stop abusing Albertans by stonewalling them?

WOULD PREMIER STELMACH, DAVE HANCOCK & RON LIEPERT CARE TO CONTACT DR. DOUGLAS L. ANDERSON TO DISCUSS THESE SERIOUS PROBLEMS?


Their input (if they dare to compromise themselves in a PUBLIC JUDICIAL INQUIRY, will be posted in the future on:  http://medics-fail-to-self-regulate.blogspot.com

DAVE HANCOCK IS A CRIMINAL

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.

              ALBERTANS ACCUSE HON. DAVE HANCOCK 
                           OF CRIMINAL NEGLIGENCE 
                (Definition: : "Reckless disregard for the lives & safety of other persons").

This dishonorable, experienced politician is an embarrassment to Albertans.
Dr. D. Anderson's three documents prove the honesty of this statement:

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).

These documents show clearly the following:

1. Dr. D. Anderson appealed to Dave Hancock (Minister of Health & Wellness) for help, and stated the reasons why he had rejected the APPEAL PROCESS of the CPSA for addressing patient complaints and asked for the Alberta Government to assist him with this serious problem (Letter - Dr. D. Anderson to D. Hancock June 29/07).

2. DR. D. ANDERSON SENT REGISTERED LETTERS TO D. HANCOCK
(& DEPUTY P. MEADE) REQUESTING HELP -


- AUG 17/07
- SEPT 3/07
- SEPT 21/07
- SEPT 28/07
- OCT 6/07
- OCT 12/07
- NOV 21/07


ALL OF THESE LETTERS WERE IGNORED. THESE LETTERS DID'NT EVEN GET AN ACKNOWLEDGED  RECEIPT (A BASIC COURTESY IN ANY DEMOCRACY).


3. The Stelmach Government's first response was a letter to Dr. D. Anderson from D. Hancock dated
Nov 27/07 which states:

"Thank you for your letter regarding your complaints to the College of Physicians & Surgeons of Alberta.       I  APPRECIATE  THE  OPPORTUNITY  TO  RESPOND. 
D. Hancock proceeds to say what Albertans would like to hear, but resolves none of Dr. D. Anderson's problems.

ALBERTANS CONSIDER HON. DAVE HANCOCK TO BE A PHONY


4. Dave Hancock's second letter to Dr. D. Anderson dated Dec 27/07 explains that Dr. D. Anderson's concerns about a breakdown in self-regulation of the CPSA are " legal matters, on which you should continue to seek advice of your legal council".  Hon. Dave Hancock accepts no responsibility to look into this problem himself even though he is a "QC" and formerly the Minister of Justice in the Stelmach Government.  Mr. Hancock then dismisses Dr. D. Anderson..


ALBERTANS ASSESS HON. DAVE HANCOCK AS IRRESPONSIBLE


5. Dave Hancock's third & last letter to Dr. D. Anderson dated Mar 25/08 informs Dr. D. Anderson that he is no longer Minister of Health & Wellness (recent cabinet shuffle) and states "it would be inappropriate for me to provide any comment ".


Hon. Dave Hancock transferred Dr. D. Anderson's files to the new Minister of Health & Wellness,
Hon. Ron Liepert, who subsequently refused to even acknowledge receipt of numerous Registered Letters sent to him by Dr. D. Anderson.

ALBERTANS  ASSESS HON. DAVE HANCOCK AS "PASSING THE BUCK" TO AN EQUALLY IRRESPONSIBLE MINISTER OF HEALTH & WELLNESS, 
HON. RON LEIPERT.



WHAT DOES PREMIER STELMACH HAVE TO SAY?

Unfortunately, Premier Stelmach assumes the role of a PASSIVE OBSERVER and watches all of this incompetence, which is his responsibility to rectify.
PREMIER STELMACH REFUSES TO TAKE ACTION.


Would Premier Ed Stelmach, Dave Hancock & Ron Liepert care to contact Dr. D. Anderson to discuss these serious problems?
Their input (if they dare to compromise themselves in a PUBLIC JUDICIAL INQUIRY) will be posted in the future on:  Http://medics-fail-to-self-regulate.blogspot.com

This Blog Posting is being emailed to the constituency offices of all Members of the Legislative Assembly of Alberta for the MLA'S attention.

Comments for Albertans from MLA'S concerning this accusation of CRIMINAL NEGLIGENCE of HON. DAVE HANCOCK  is urgent, and can be posted at:

STELMACH  STONEWALLS  ALBERTANS


Unfortunately, during the week of April 17 - 24, 2011, Premier Stelmach has refused to communicate
with Albertans.

             STELMACH REFUSAL TO COMMENT ON 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".
3. "Addendum to the Anderson Journal on the Hon. Dave Hancock".

These three documents show clearly the gross negligence (ignoring Patient Neglect & Needless Suffering) of the following persons within the Government of Alberta and the College of Physicians & Surgeons of Alberta who are "authorities" within the Alberta Health Care System:

     Premier Ed Stelmach             (Premier of Alberta)
     Dave Hancock                      (Past Minister of Health & Wellness)
     Ron Liepert                           (Past Minister of Health & Wellness)
     Ron Stevens                          (Past Minister of Justice)
     Alison Redford                     (Past Minister of Justice)
     Dr. Trevor Theman              (Registrar of CPSA)
     Dr. James Bell                      (Past President of Council of CPSA)
     Dr. Harvey Woytiuk            (Councillor of CPSA)

        
       STELMACH REFUSAL TO COMMENT ON GROSS NEGLIGENCE OF
                     THE HEALTH QUALITY COUNCIL OF ALBERTA


The following two top officials in the HQCA have shown gross negligence:

    Dr. John Cowell  (CEO - HQCA)
    Dr. Lorne Tyrrell  (CHAIR - HQCA)

Premier Stelmach refuses to comment on their negligence:

1. Refusal to meet with Dr. D. Anderson to discuss necessary changes that the CPSA must make in the Investigative Process & Appeal Process in addressing patient complaints.
2. Refusal to correspond with Dr. D. Anderson.
3. Refusal to return to Dr. D. Anderson his private files which Dr. D. Anderson lent to
Dr. L. Tyrrell on September 30, 2010.

The following letter from Dr. D. Anderson to Dr. J. Cowell dated April 22/11 was copied and sent to Premier Stelmach:

"Notwithstanding the fact that the HQCA has refused to correspond with me, I am sending this letter to you.
I am appealing to you to have HQCA return my private files to me concerning serious errors made by the College of Physicians & Surgeons of Alberta which Dr. Lorne Tyrrell (Chair - HQCA) has held on loan from me since September 30, 2010.
I have made attempts to repossess these files from Dr. Tyrrell without success as follows -

1. Registered letter to Dr. L. Tyrrell - dated Feb. 7/11
2. Personal Delivery of letter by Dr. D. Anderson to Dr. L. Tyrrell - Mar. 4/11
3. BLOG POSTINGS  (Http://medics-fail-to-self-regulate.blogspot.com)

Would you kindly take necessary action to have these files returned to me".

PREMIER STELMACH REFUSES TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR:


1. Negligence of his ministers.
2. Negligence of CPSA.
3. Negligence of HQCA.
