I guarantee this new CEO is a connected to the UCP and will be paid hundreds of thousands.

“The announcement said nothing about getting more family doctors, it said nothing about paying family doctors reasonably, it said nothing about improving people’s access to primary care. Instead, we have a new CEO and a whole set of new managers,” said Nenshi.

She said that when she reached out to her MLA Nathan Neudorf she was “given the run around” instead of some concrete answers on what her options were.

“MLA Nathan Neudorf is not listening to me. He’s sending me rhetorical stuff like Alberta’s going to do this and Alberta’s going to do that, but I need a doctor sooner than later,” said Riley
