Danielle Smith Threatens AHS...Will It Work?

Real Talk Ryan Jespersen

Alberta's got at least two disasters to manage, with the Jasper rebuild and an overburdened healthcare system dominating news headlines. We go straight to the source for updates from Jasper Mayor Richard Ireland and Alberta Medical Association president Dr. Paul Parks.

4:30 | Mayor Ireland talks to us about losing his home to wildfire, and the early stages of Jasper's rebuild. When will tourists be able to return? Does he share Premier Danielle Smith's concern Parks Canada will "shrink" Jasper's footprint?

21:20 | Danielle Smith says she expects competition and fear to go a long way in improving healthcare outcomes in Alberta. We ask Dr. Paul Parks how the AMA feels about the whole AHS/Covenant Health situation, and what he thinks about our Covid vaccine class action interview with lawyers Jeff Rath and Eva Chipiuk on August 28 (58:30).

1:26:25 | Real Talker Lorne became disabled in 2023 by a yet-to-be diagnosed neurological condition. He delivers his prognosis on the healthcare system. (You may not like what you hear...and he's probably not wrong.)
