YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Premier Danielle Smith is defending Health Minister Adriana LaGrange and how she handled allegations made by Athana Mentzelopoulos, former CEO of Alberta Health Services, in a wrongful dismissal lawsuit. The claim alleges LaGrange and staff in Smith's office applied pressure to renew and sign contracts connected to chartered surgical facilities. A third-party review is expected, but the Alberta NDP are calling for a judge-led public inquiry.
