Screenshot of an e-mail. It reads: ":Hello
I’m contacting you because Alberta is currently refusing to fund a federally-approved chemotherapy drug (Trabectedin) that my oncologist prescribed at the Cross Cancer Institute.
Despite Health Canada approval (2016) and a national reimbursement recommendation (Oct 2025), Alberta has not added it to the funded list.
I’m facing a $60,000 bill (10k every 3 weeks) while fighting metastatic cancer (Leiomyosarcoma)
This is a major policy failure and an example of how provincial decisions override national standards at the expense of patients. Im hoping you would share my story not only to help me but also other cancer patients impacted by lengthy delays.

Thank you"

This Albertan needs help. She has cancer (Leiomyosarcoma) and was prescribed a specific drug, Trabectedin (Yondelis), which has been approved by Health Canada, and recommended by the Canadian Drug Agency, but Alberta doesn't cover it.

Just thought I’d share some Calgary Bluesfest pics at the new location at The Confluence. Amazingly, we didn’t get wet all weekend!

Awesome, I actually got to see 4 shuttle launches from ‘99 to ‘02. I was a foreign contractor at the time. The night launch was so cool. Also saw one right at sunrise.

I have and the experts I have read say it enhances authorities that already exist. Also, it’s just the first reading and amendments are already being looked at. Let’s see where it goes before we over react.

The Throne Speech is written by Carney/cabinet which outlines Carney’s plan. The Governor General usually reads the throne speech.

Need to watch for the Oval Office ambush like they did on Zelensky. They’ll try to defame you on live TV. All the best to you!

He has a house in Ottawa that he was renting out to a fellow conservative MP. Double dipping with public money.
