PREMIER REDFORD'S " RESPONSE"

On July 4, 2012 a copy of the last posting on this site - "Shame on Alberta Health Care Authorities" was sent by Registered Mail to Premier Redford.  Premier Redford has ignored this mail.
The only response from the Alberta Government was a letter dated July 9, 2012 from Hon. G. Zwozdesky (Speaker of the Legislative Assembly of Alberta) which stated the following:

"Thank you for providing me with a copy of your letter addressed to the Honourable Stephen Harper regarding Health Care in Alberta specific to patient neglect and needless suffering.  Please be assured that I appreciate being made aware of your concerns.  As such, I have taken the liberty of forwarding a copy of your letter to me colleague, the Hon. Fred Horne, Minister of Health and Wellness, for his review.
Thank you, once again, Douglas; best wishes with all of your endeavours as well"

It is curious that Hon. Zwozdesky feels it necessary to inform Minister Of Health - Fred Horne, when a Registered Letter was sent to Fred Horne with a copy of the Registered Letter dated July 4, 2012, sent to Prime Minister  Harper.

It is very curious that Hon. Fred Horne and Premier Redford have not communicated with
Douglas L. Anderson, MD., FRCS(C).

Albertans are patiently awaiting communication on this serious wrongdoing in the Canadian Health Care System from:

Prime Minister of Canada - Stephen Harper
Premier of Alberta - Alison Redford


A copy of this Current Blog - "Shame on Premier Redford - Unanswered" was sent by Registered Mail an August 8, 2012 to Hon. Harper and Hon. Redford.

PREMIER REDFORD IGNORES MORE REGISTERED LETTERS


The following Registered Letters were sent to Premier A. Redford by Douglas L. Anderson, MD., FRCS(C) as follows:

May 28, 2012: " I am disturbed by the Throne Speech written by you and delivered by Lt.-Gov. Donald Ethell on May 24, 2012.  Please find enclosed a copy of an editorial in the Edmonton Journal (May 25/12) concerning this Throne Speech entitled -  'Tories promise open government as guiding principle' and 'Throne Speech outlines push for greater transparency'.  Why am I Disturbed?   Unfortunately your Throne Speech is hollow.  Words are cheap but it is action that counts.  PREMIER REDFORD'S WORDS [The above editorial states this clearly] Open Government & Greater Transparency.  PREMIER REDFORD'S ACTION - Premier Redford has had ample opportunity to fulfill her words but has failed.  Health Care for Albertans is a prime example.
Douglas L. Anderson, MD., FRCS(C) has exposed serious wrongdoing for many years by the Health Care Authorities in Alberta and has informed Alison Redford of this wrongdoing for a very long time. This time frame is:
1. While she was the Justice Minister in the Stelmach Government.
2. While she was campaigning for the leadership of the PC Party.
3. While she has held the role of Premier of Alberta.


Alison Redford has refused to acknowledge receipt of numerous REGISTERED LETTERS (40+) during this entire period, concerning wrongdoing by health care authorities.


Serious wrongdoing by Health Care Authorities is datailed at Blog Site-
medics-fail-to-self-regulate.blogspot.com


REDFORD WORD - ideal
REDFORD ACTION - dismal


Would you kindly resolve this serious problem. I await your early reply "


June 8, 2012:  " Please find enclosed a copy of current Blog Posting ' Premier Redford Hides Criminals in Health Care'
                                 Albertans await your response to Registered Letter of May 28, 2012.


UPDATE


The Registered Letters sent to Dr. L. Tyrrell (May 23/12 and Dr. P. Byrne (May 11/12) have also been ignored.

ALBERTANS  ASK

When will Premier Redford and the Alberta Health Care Authorities start showing
ACCOUNTABILITY and TRANSPARENCY?

PREMIER REDFORD HIDES HEALTH CARE AUTHORITIES,
GUILTY OF CRIMINAL NEGLIGENCE OF PATIENTS

DEFINITION:  CRIMINAL NEGLIGENCE - "RECKLESS DISREGARD FOR THE LIVES & SAFETY OF OTHER PERSONS"


HEALTH CARE AUTHORITIES WHO HAVE SHOWN CRIMINAL NEGLIGENCE


1. College of Physicians & Surgeons of Alberta (CPSA):
      Staff:  Drs: T. Theman (Registrar), K. Mazarek, J. Ritchie
      Councilors: Drs: J. Bell, H. Woytiuk.


This College has conducted a totally flawed and incompetent investigation, (patient complaint file       #060421.1.4)   This College has failed to address proven Patient Neglect and Needless Suffering caused by Medical Doctors.  This College has even stooped to lying to provide reasons to close a patient file.

2. Health Quality Council of Alberta (HQCA):

CEO - Dr. John Cowell;  CHAIR - Dr. L. Tyrrell


The HQCA have willfully ignored numerous Registered Letters and files detailing Patient Neglect and Needless Suffering ignored by CPSA. The HQCA refuses to discuss necessary reforms to address the Investigative Process of Patient Complaints by the CPSA.
These doctors refuse to meet or correspond with Dr. Anderson and refuse to comment on any of his documents showing wrongdoing by Health Care Authorities.


WHO ARE THE AUTHORITIES HIDING THE WRONGDOING OF CPSA & HQCA?


1. Premier A. Redford


2. Dave Hancock; Ron Liepert; Gene Zwozdesky; Fred Horne
     Four Ministers of Health & Wellness (Past & Present)

3. Ron Stevens; Alison Redford; Verlyn Olson
     Three Ministers of Justice.


WHO ARE THE AUTHORITIES HIDING THE WRONGDOING OF
CPSA, HQCA AND THE GOVERNMENT OF ALBERTA?


John Dossetor Health Ethics Centre (Dr. Paul Byrne - Interim Director)


PARTIES INFORMED OF THIS WRONGDOING


1. Opposition Party Leaders in the Alberta Legislative Assembly.
After receiving multiple Registered Letters concerning Wrongdoing of Health Care Authorities the response from leaders was:

Brian Mason (Alberta NDP): Acknowledgment of receipt of Registered Letters but no action plan on addressing wrongdoing by Health Care Authorities and no request to meet with Dr. Douglas Anderson to discuss this serious problem.

Dr. Raj Sherman (Alberta Liberal Party): same response as Brian Mason.

Glen Taylor (Alberta Party): No acknowledgment of receipt of multiple Registered Letters.

Danielle Smith (Wildrose Party of Alberta): No acknowledgment of receipt of multiple Registered Letters.


2. ALBERTA  HEALTH  CARE  WORKERS


Who are these workers? Medical Doctors, Registered Nurses and their assistants, Pharmacists, Dentists, Physiotherapists. Optometrists, Ocularists. Audiologists, Chiropractors, Medical Labs, Radiologists and many other groups of health care workers.
These Health Care Workers were given information which included Edmonton Journal Editorial "Angry MD's Demand Inquiry" - Mar. 17/12.  This information was circulated throughout the greater Edmonton area and as far south as Red Deer , Alberta.
What was the response from the Health Care Workers?
After circulating material to the hospitals (nursing stations and most departments), medical clinics, pharmacies etc. from Edmonton to Red Deer, Alberta, the response was clear -

AN OPEN PUBLIC JUDICIAL INQUIRY IS ESSENTIAL


3. NEWS  MEDIA


Lucinda Chodan (Editor-in-Chief) Edmonton Journal. This Editor has failed Albertans.

HEALTH QUALITY COUNCIL OF ALBERTA (HQCA)  - FAILS


Albertans demand an OPEN PUBLIC JUDICIAL INQUIRY into the ills that plague the Health Care System of Alberta.
Premier Redford, while seeking to become the leader of the Progressive Conservative Party of Alberta, promised Albertans this open inquiry.  Since becoming the Premier of Alberta she has reduced this inquiry into a sham. She has limited the HQCA to investigate "allegations that politicians have jumped the queue to access health services faster".
Premier Redford has ignored completely PROVEN ABUSE OF MEDICAL DOCTORS AND ALL HEALTH CARE WORKERS by the Health Care Authorities in the Health Care System.

The TOP OFFICIALS of the HQCA are:

1. CEO:  Dr. John Cowell.
2. CAIR: Dr. Lorne Tyrrell.

Ironically, the very people empowered by Premier Redford to question others on possible wrongdoing, have abused Dr. Anderson for over one year - the HQCA - CEO Dr. John Cowell & CHAIR Dr. Lorne Tyrrell.  These two medical doctors have :
1. Refused to meet with Dr. Anderson.
2 Refused to communicate with Dr. Anderson.
3. Refused to comment on Dr. Anderson's documents showing criminal activity in Health Care by the Premiers and their ministers.

ALBERTANS DEMAND AND OPEN PUBLIC JUDICIAL INQUIRY

PREMIER REDFORD FACES VOTERS - APRIL 23, 2012

retired Eye Surgeon, having conducted his surgery in Edmonton, Alberta  Canada for over
30 years before retirement.

                 PREMIER REDFORD FACES VOTERS APRIL 23, 2012
                            DISMAL  HEALTH  CARE  RECORD




Premier Redford's record shows:

1. Premier Redford continues to refuse to acknowledge receipt of multiple Registered Letters from Albertans concerning wrongdoing by Health Care Authorities, while she was Minister of Justice and now as Premier of Alberta.
2. Premier Redford refuses to honor her promise to Albertans to call for a
            FULLY OPEN PUBLIC JUDICIAL INQUIRY
into Health Care in Alberta.
3. Premier Redford refuses to make public three criminal documents which prove abuse of Medical Doctors by the Health Care Authorities of Alberta:
- "Ministers of Stelmach Government Refuse to Answer Surgeon's Questions"
- "The Anderson Journal on the Hon. Dave Hancock".
-  " The Addendum to the Anderson Journal on the Hon. Dave Hancock".


WHY IS A PUBLIC JUDICIAL INQUIRY ESSENTIAL?
This is the question that Douglas L. Anderson, MD., FRCS(C) is asking all candidates.
Dr. Anderson has an important statement for all candidates:

" I am a retired Eye Surgeon. Minister of Health, Fred Horne has stated that the present Health Inquiry will not include alleged intimidation by medical doctors.

Alleged intimidations is not the issue.  The issue is PROVEN LONG-TERM ABUSE OF MEDICAL DOCTORS BY HEALTH CARE AUTHORITIES IN ALBERTA. 
The emphasis is on proven and not alleged.


I have been abused personally for advocating against patient neglect and needless suffering of patients.
This abuse came in the form of  STONEWALLING  me and refusing to communicate with me because the Health Care Authorities had not other method of punishing me. This abuse has caused me great pain.

I have been abused for almost five years by Premier Stelmach and more recently premier Redford. I have been abused by the past four ministers of Health, including the present minister, Fred Horne.

I have been abused by three ministers of justice including the present minister Hon. V. Olson.

Ironically, the very people empowered by Premier Redford to question others on possibkle wrongdoing, have abused me for over one year - the Health Quality Council of Alberta - CEO Dr. John Cowell & Chair Dr. Lorne Tyrrell.  These two medical doctors have refused to meet with me or correspond with me or comment on my documents showing criminal activity in Health Care by the Premiers and their ministers,     and finally I have been abused by the Registrar of the College of Physicians & Surgeons of Alberta - Dr. Trevor Theman and several medical doctors serving on the Council of that body.

Details of this abuse can be found at: http://medics-fail-to-self-regulate.blogspot.com

Now my question to all candidates is -

Are you prepared NOW - TONIGHT to demand that Premier Redford call for a Fully Open Public Judicial Inquiry into the ills that plague the Health Care System in Alberta?
Albertans must hear the answer from each candidate.


ALBERTANS LOSE TRUST - INQUIRY IS ESSENTIAL
