AG's report finds improper payments to some top managers at Health P.E.I. | CBC News A report released by Prince Edward Island's auditor general has prompted Health P.E.I.’s CEO to ask the province's attorney general to weigh in on whether acts of fraud were committed at the agency.

Why is this Health Board still operating? Is there no oversight on them?What have they achieved to improve health care for Islanders for all they money they’ve gotten?We need to see some concrete results from them quickly or they need to go. Baby out with the bath water! www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Wonder if the local CBC would be open to me giving them a list of pointy-end-of-the-stick critical thinking questions to ask during interviews. A guest should never be allowed to use the time for a “rehearsed” PR monologue as was done last night on Compass, almost without interruption.

Public clinic at UPEI's new medical school opening next week, says Health P.E.I. CEO | CBC News The new patient medical home located at UPEI will open next week and will bring in 100 patients to start, says Melanie Fraser.

Where are the doctors and nurses who will be staffing this brand new “patient medical home” at UPEI’s new medical school coming from? Are they brand new to the health PEI system and not already practicing on the Island or …? www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

We pay for CANADIAN content.
CBC our “Canadian” broadcaster, is busy featuring US govt shutdown news & discussing the impact this will have on Americans …. Too much time CBC spends discussing US news. So much happening in Canada with Carney at the helm, it can’t be for lack of our own news. #cdnpoli

Simply unbelievable the level of incompetence and we, the taxpayers, probably don’t know a tenth of it! How much are we paying these people to not capture critical data? The article’s last sentence says it all!

I hope the PM cuts him down to size right out of the gate this afternoon. Otherwise, he will derail the session (as he had done in the past) and MPs will get no work done for Canadians. He’s childish and immature and lacks respect for the HoC and Canadians with his asinine behaviour, imo.

I said the same thing yesterday. Showed no class whatsoever and made it all about himself. Disgraceful behaviour, imo, and he should be ashamed of himself.

There goes any hope of a return to civil discourse and decorum in the House for the good of getting work done for Canadians.

I missed seeing what the nurses issued. Where can I access it?

I fear, with Health PEI’s latest stunt, they may have pushed us over the brink of no return to secure health care. Why, oh why, can’t someone do something about Health PEI?

The last thing we need is to lose family doctors. While there are lots of other ways and opportunities they can work in the medical field, we need ones dedicated specifically to family medicine. A good family doc is worth their weight in gold!

An infographic titled 'How a Bill Becomes a Law' showing six color-coded steps in the Canadian legislative process: 1) First Reading – bill introduced in Senate or House of Commons; 2) Second Reading – debate and vote on main idea; 3) Committee Stage – detailed examination and possible amendments; 4) Third Reading – final debate and vote; 5) Other Chamber – repeats the process in the other chamber; 6) Royal Assent – Governor General approves the bill into law. The background includes a blue sky with clouds and the Parliament of Canada.

Ever wonder what happens after a bill is introduced in the House of Commons? 📜

It starts as an idea and, if approved, becomes law after debate, committee review, and votes in both chambers. 🇨🇦

Sean Casey keeps his name in the hat for Speaker of the House of Commons | CBC News Charlottetown MP Sean Casey says he's letting his name go forward to be considered for the role of Speaker in the House of Commons.

This guy needs to stop publicly whining about being passed over for a Cabinet post. His “entitlement” attitude does not speak positively of maturity or professionalism.

It is a sad situation. Poilievre is not worth the cost. #cdnpoli

MP Casey needs to stop publicly whining and sulking over being overlooked for a Cabinet post. It’s neither a mature attitude nor a good look. There are only so many Cab posts and not every MP can be appointed to one. Then, of course, there is Casey’s past behavior to be considered …

Ohhh Pierre. Wish we could say we miss you! But we LOVE not hearing your nasally, negative voice. Can’t wait to see #Parliament opened with #KingCharlesIII and see your face pressed up against the glass looking in. (It’s petty… 😬😉) #NeverPoilievre #PierrePooPoo #AllQuietInTheHouse #cdnpoli
