Rebuilding Alberta Healthcare — Or Breaking It?

Alberta’s healthcare system has gone through a major overhaul since 2023 — new agencies, new legislation, and a new way of thinking about care delivery. But is it actually working?

In this episode of The Discourse, Erika Barootes is joined by emergency physician and former Alberta Medical Association president Dr. Paul Parks for a candid, no-spin conversation from both the frontline and the policy table.

They break down what’s changed, what’s at stake with dual practice, and what real solutions could look like — without the political talking points.
