Rebel MLA bound for Medicine Hat .Friday, 14 January 2011 02:00 Angus Henderson .Medicine Hat News
The local chapter of Friends of Medicare will be featuring Edmonton MLA Dr. Raj Sherman as its special guest speaker on Saturday, Feb. 19 at 7 p.m.
"Friends of Medicare chapters look forward to hosting Dr. Sherman to encourage a frank, non-partisan discussion about health care in Alberta," says David Eggen, provincial executive director of Friends of Medicare.
"Dr. Sherman has many insights to share, and is looking forward to hearing from Albertans about their concerns."
The meeting will be open to the public, and will include plenty of opportunity to ask questions and offer comments.
A venue for the town hall meeting will be announced in the next week or so.
Dr. Sherman was expelled from the Alberta government in November caucus after criticizing Alberta Health Services, saying the health care system in the province was broken. An emergency room doctor who still works weekends, Dr. Sherman now sits as an independent MLA.
Sherman had been the parliamentary assistant for health prior to his ouster.
