NDP health critic says UCP has created the doctor shortage

The NDP Health critic believes the UCP government needs to restore trust with doctors if the province has any chance of resolving the acute shortage of family doctors.

David Shepherd says when the government tore up the master agreement with physicians, the province immediately started to hemorrhage doctors to the extent that even popular destinations like Cochrane have been severely impacted.

Guthrie believes UCP should go straight to leadership race

Airdrie-Cochrane MLA Peter Guthrie says the United Conservative Party (UCP) should discard the mail-in vote on Jason Kenney's leadership and instead proceed directly to a leadership race.

Guthrie says the integrity of the voting process has completely disintegrated and has divided the party's membership.

"It has changed so many times," says Guthrie. "It has gone against what the members of the party wish, what the constituency associations would like to see, and for that reason, trust in the system has evaporated."
