More Bad News

I went to my doctors office today, my heart sank when he read my MRI, and said it is entirely possible that I will now require surgery on my neck. Just as I have said for a very long time (June 13, 2006) there is something wrong with my neck. MARCH 04, 2006 Scans. MARCH 09, 2006 Scans. I even wrote a letter to Kathy Morgan (LETTER ORIGINAL) back then because I was floored with my Spinal Surgeons' response, that he was, "only being paid to fix my back". That was back in 2006.
Corporate Alberta rears its ugly head. (This is all consistent with, Crappy Contracters=Crappy Disability Insurer). I cannot figure out why N.B. does not want to be assimilated by the Alberta Corporate model. You think they would welcome assimilation.
Not only did I complain to Dr. Jiang about my neck, but I also told Dr. Wilson of my neck difficulties, popping 10 times a day. Here is one of his physician reports before WCB Alberta shut him down by cutting me off permanently. No danger of WCB paying for anything they already ambushed me last week by telling my Doctor that I never complained in the hospital. I told my doctor, " I was on Morphine!"
I wonder how many specialists the Alberta Government and the WCB Alberta Sponsor to come here and work? Then they can pre-program them for their true objective, ToryCorp Health. ToryCorp Health will of course be a superior organization run by non other than, their very own "Superboard". Kinda has a private club sound to it, doesn't it? You know, there was this super race one time. ... They had the very same dilemma. Being superior you know.
In the final analysis, it has to be stated. You know what? There was nothing wrong with my neck before I fell. It has been giving me hell ever since and I want something done about it, before I end up like Superman did.
Here is the link to the results My MRI report on my C-Spine (neck)., page 2 of the report. I am just so tired of unqualified predator doctors posing as medical experts and ambushing me without qualifying credentials or exploratory evidence. WCB Alberta has a new rent a doc, who is a Mr. Charleton.
My doctor is understandably being misled by WCB Alberta. Legitimate health care professionals simply cannot understand how their very own medical alumni, are willfully maliciously applying medical skills.
Dr. Charleton did write a letter to my doctor. I did not discover this until months later. I requested to see the WCB doctors letter, from my doctor. Obviously doctor Charleton does not feel that maliciously attacking my medical condition would warrant sending me a copy of his findings. Doctor Charleton did act maliciously, by not acquiring further medical evidence. Non treatment is considered under Acts of threats and co-ercion within a licensed medical facility in the Province of Alberta. Millard Health Center is so used to using this technique that they think this is standard operating procedure for a medical facility. Why wouldn't they. Their model is a American HMO model. Proper investigation of my case would include, appropriate radiographs, examination by spinal surgeons or any chronic pain specialists, by actually opening up my medical records and reviewing all available documentation on my case. Here is a shocker, how about the WCB Alberta actually perform a proper spinal IME? A proper Independant Medical Examination of my Spine that follows all of the procedures laid out in the AMA Guide to Permanent Impairments. Unqualified medical workers employed by Alberta WCB producing felonious reports, and not even bothering to send me a copy of these bogus findings. STAKEHOLDERS, so Alberta WCB won't have to look it up. This is just one more felonious method that the WCB Alberta uses in its toolbox of creating felonious evidence against my case. "Corporate health care coming to a loved one near you." Colleen Bamford if you were terribly injured, is this how you would like to be treated? I wish my doctor would tell WCB that if it is important enough for their doctor to phone him with, than it is important enough to put in a letter. Superboard, can you Feel the rush?
I drove by the Charles Camsell Hospital and could not help but think... that its giant hulking ghost towers as a monolith to the Alberta Governments mismanagement of health care. They took a 100% completely working mechanism of the health care system and destroyed it, good job. And to this day they have never been able to approach that level of care that existed within its walls. The echoes of true pioneers will never fade.

Guy Boutilier gets booted is a good thing!!

Well Guy getting booted is good. A MLA standing up against "ToryCorP" is a gallant gesture. Now Guy Boutilier knows how the opposition to the government feels every day. I could go on about what a brave soul he is. But I have no time to beat his drum, I stand alone against this government every day. It is a lonely battle, with "no" rewards except more pain. Time to put my blog back on track. I originally started this blog not to rail against the government. That is no longer a lonely sport for the political outcasts. I started this Blog to educate the uneducated on my condition and situation. I have gone way off target on my original intent to supply relevant and educational subject matter to the masses who do not understand the all the medical issues regarding my condition and treatment, or lack thereof. And some of the policy distortions, perversions and abuses that I have been subjected to. I feel for Guy Boutilier, but you should try standing against the machine with absolutely no support or financial help. This government governs by fear. They keep everyone, contractors, teachers, doctors, nurses, hospitals, municipalities in line with the implied understanding that if you buck the government. They will starve you.
Anyways, I am going to spend this week posting documents, both medical and administrative. It is a huge learning curve for me, learning all this new technology. Just for a faint glimmer of hope that is fainter than a distant star, that maybe with a huge stroke of luck, my government might throw me a cookie crumb. It has been over three years now, that a seriously Injured worker with a broken back has been asking for a orthopedic bed. Updating my blog is limited to how long I can sit without laying down for awhile and resting my back. Dammit, I looked outside and Gravity is still working. I just find it laughable that this government has advocated for years, less government. If that ain't the Pot calling the Kettle black. All I do now is fill out forms.

Candian Forces mission in Afghanishtan

Canada sends its brave young men and women overseas to protect our sacred values and beliefs. Brave young Men and Women are dying overseas to protect our human rights. Yet there are individuals and corporations that are allowed to operate outside of those values and laws that we hold so dear to our hearts. And it is high time that our federal government stood up and be counted. It is time they (fed gov.) pursue these white collar criminals that pervert our laws and values. They operate under the guise of legitimate insurance corporations. You would know them as the WCB. I am a Canadian. I come from a long line of Canadians, and I do not enjoy having my individual rights and freedoms stripped from me, simply because I was injured at work. The charter was not written for persons or corporations to simply "Opt out" at will. Our charter is universal in its application across this great land, and it is time that these criminals are brought to justice for their crimes against innocent citizens in our society.

As it turns out the WCB Kook doctor that they claim is their expert is in fact a family physician. His is in no way an expert, or in anyway qualified to make a rational determination of my spinal condition. As stated previously, the AMA Guide to permanent impairment is the clinical benchmark for determining my permanent disability. The WCB Alberta organization producing this person as a qualified specialist in this field is just one more act of malicious fraud perpetrated by their claims managers. They do this every day. It is nothing new for them. That is why the majority of their documentation is not even signed by them personally. It is so they can avoid prosecution. They produce documents with mechanical signatures. They willfully put the wrong date on documents or simply no date at all. Apparently they don't have access to Microsoft Word. When called upon to produce a response, they just wave around old documentation. This corporation has fraud written all over their faces. For any doctor to come to the conclusion that their is nothing wrong with my back is a blatantly fraudulent conclusion. Perhaps these WCB doctors should read their own guidlines on page 35, even though it is more than 10 years old. Yep this is Alberta alright, stuck in the last century.
Considering the fact that, that same doctor, Dr. E.D. Charleton works within the confines of the Millard Health Center, he knows full well that they never did order, nor complete my IME. He and their organization are fully cognizant of this fact. The also are completely aware that the only way my condition can be fully examined is by the completion of a proper IME according to the standards laid out in the AMA Guide to permanent impairment. Any other determination is a act of outright malicious fraud. These self professed specialists, and experts have full access to all of my medical information. The don't even bother to read their own guidlines.
For any medical professional to produce documents of this nature, considering the fact that they are claiming some sort of expertise in the Spinal Injury field of medicine is outright malicious defamatory fraud. These professionals are acting with deliberate malicious fraudulent intent. And they are acting willfully and with the full cognizant awareness that their false misrepresentations are malicious and fraudulent in nature. To claim that they have reviewed my case or all available documentation is 100% pure malicious fraud. These professionals and the corporation of the WCB Alberta are colluding in the production of malicious fraudulent documents.
Which is punishable by law.
By their continued determination that my current neck difficulties are not related to my fall backwards onto the frozen earth, is in itself evidence that they have not in any way, shape or form reviewed or investigated my evidence or claim. Their statements are false, malicious and outright lies, perpetrated by their own doctors and claims managers. There is clear cut evidence of a conspiracy to commit fraud.
It is no secret that the WCB gets there victims to sign a access to information consent form, so that they can share your medical information with doctors and other medical staff, who require it in order to perform their duties. They would hold this up as a legally binding agreement.
However this contract is null and void if one of the participants is acting with malicious and fraudulent intent (Alberta WCB). In any contract their is an unwritten understanding that the party you are signing an agreement with, will not act in an inappropriate malicious fraudulent manner against you. In this case, one of the contractual signatories is guilty of violation of that contract. That being the WCB Alberta. In agreeing to share my medical information, I would only sign into such a contract with the explicit understanding that; any or all of my medical information would only be share with medical professionals who are directly involved in my treatment. Or who are directly interested in assisting me in being medically treated. Why would I want to share my medical information with a Doctor for Hire, who's only vested interest is profiteering from my continued pain. He is not a expert, he is not a Spinal Surgeon. He is not a medical investigator, or he would have come to a different conclusion. His only interest in my medical case or any fool who would come into his gun sights is his own financial gain from producing negative and outright false reports on my condition. The WCB Alberta, the doctors who write these defamatory reports, and the claims managers are all guilty of violating my Access to Information rights.
I did not, do not, and never will consent to the sharing of my private medical information with medical professionals whose intentions are 100% clearly malicious in their intent, and execution. Once again the

WCB

has violated my rights.

In the United States of America there are clear cut laws to deal with these felons. They are the RICO Laws and they were created to stop just such activity. Time will tell if our federal government has any true "GUTS".

Alberta Firefighters Compensation

I just can not understand how a Seriously Injured Ironworker can fall off a building smashing his body in the process and not be covered by Compensation. How that same injured worker in Alberta does not even qualify for a BED after breaking his back. I am flabbergasted at this, and in total disbelief that my Case Manager Colleen Bamford can stand by this determination.
I know firefighters and admire them for their bravery in the execution of their duties. I risked my life for many years and cannot even get my medications paid for by WCB Alberta. I did fall at work and did shatter my vertebrae, and according to Colleen Bamford I don't qualify. I am permanently disabled according to the American Medical Association Guides to the Evaluation of Permanent Impairments. (Note: See Links to Documents on bottom of page.) But Colleen Bamford still says I do not qualify, and closed my file due to inactivity she wrote.
Colleen are Ironworkers exempt from coverage when they fall and break their backs?? Why am I being discriminated against?
She did manage to dig up some Rent-a-doc that she tries to pass off as an official medical consultant on my condition. Humpff, strange.. the Guide to the Evaluation of Permanent Impairments is very specific in who is qualified to make that assessment on a spinal injury, and if you read the guide it lays out in specific detail the accompanying combination of scans and X-rays, and other specialists that are required to do a proper and legal assessment of my spinal injury.
Colleen Bamford, I am going to the RCMP and file a fraud complaint against WCB Alberta. You have not acted in good faith, and you have engaged in acts of fraud against a legally entitled seriously injured worker. By producing documents that you know to be fraudulent, you and your organization are liable. This is not some kind of administrative fau paus. This is willful and deliberate fraud. The WCB Alberta has acted with deliberate "Malice".
I know firefighters and have worked with them, and they would not approve of your treatment of a hard working injured Ironworker. People who risk their lives everyday are all cut from the same cloth. It is very tragic their comrade lost his life to his work related medical problems.
I do believe that the WCB Alberta needs to stand up and quit committing fraud against hard working seriously injured citizens of this community. Millard and WCB Alberta, bringing shame to the Health Sciences in Alberta for 30 years.

WCB Alberta employees could never understand this since they have never built anything or contributed anything to this community. BTW, you never hear of any medical miracles coming out of Millard now do you. That's because meat grinders do not produce miracles.
The entire WCB operation from head to toe is one big JOKE operation. Sad part is, the joke is on the injured worker.
The only people who think Millard is great are the ones paid to say so. You never hear of great humans' achievements at Millard do you. I guess that is what happens in a Rehabilitation facility that thinks threats and coercion are useful tools for your recovery. They do have to help some people to put in their magazines, like I said, people who are paid to say so.
Isn't the ruling party of Alberta's corporate solution to everything just frigging great? Huh? Yup, thanks ED, sending people to the poor house. 1000 at a time. Thanks to narrow minded ToryNomics. How many people are unemployed in Alberta now?

Stand by your brothers in arms, at their most perilous time. And others shall bath in warm glow of your memory forever.

Alberta Appeals Commission

My worst fears have been realized regarding the Alberta WCB appeals commission
This is not a true legal dispute mechanism, it is a ultra cushy BS appointment of even more friends of the government. This is nepotism gone bezerk. Seriously injured Ironworkers with broken backs cannot even qualify for a bed, while the trough feeders continue to swell in number. I can guarantee you that they sleep on pocket coils. These people do not even feign concern, or interest in your plight.
Democracy died in Alberta, a very long time ago. The real shame in all of this, is the fact that almost no one showed up for the funeral. Elected officials running this province ended a long long time ago.
These people are making a mockery of Canada. It makes me sad to know that so many will suffer from the abuses of this government sponsored Super bureaucracy run amuck. The trough has been allowed to balloon to an unimaginable bloated and deformed size. The "demockery bureaucracy" has written their own laws(policies) for so long they actually believe that they are Law makers. They only need Law makers as figurehead puppets.
I thought that a true legal entity with a balanced representation would be a good solid place to consult on how to battle a corrupt and fraudulent corporation.
I really am only beginning to grasp what a completely naive and stupid idea that was. After a brief visit, their non action was obvious. I now know how naive I really am. The Office of the Appeals Commission as far as I am concerned is one more part of their farce. This is just one more layer of stupidity. This is a super corrupt organization whose chief mandate is defrauding seriously injured workers of any form of compensation.
Obviously a made in Alberta solution that was farmed out to an American consultant.
This is what happens when corporatism is allowed to run amuck.
How's that Health Super Board working out for the general population?
The response from the commission representative was typical in its merry-go-round approach to a solution. This entire situation never even needed to reach this point, if the dispute resolution process was an actual working mechanism. It's originators intentions have been grossly perverted by the demockery bureaucracy. In doing so they have created a squirrel cage that you simply cannot escape. The process is so mind numbingly drawn out that it is almost guaranteed to discourage even the most seasoned mangled human.
The Alberta WCB is just one big SHAM wow. Claims managers mindlessly grinding out more of their southern consultants well rehearsed BS.
This is not a problem that is unique to the the Alberta WCB, this is a giant "Corporate Culture" created and nurtured by our government. It is ridiculous in it's premise, and even more retarded in actual practice. Hello, did anyone notice how all this corporate BS backfired in the US? Albertans bought the Corporate Hallelujah stuff hook line and sinker.
More corporation, less government. Hmm, how's that working out for you?

Alberta WCB's intentions were clear from the beginning, cutting off a seriously injured Ironworker with a shattered vertebrae and steel bars in his back after only 6 months recovery. Why? Because I refused to be mocked, would not accept WCB Alberta's outright denial of my injuries, and refused to be threatened into signing legally binding documents. It is interesting given the fact that it is against the law in Alberta to threaten persons within the confines of a licensed medical facility in the Province of Alberta.
No need for these people to obey the Law, they will just create a new policy, and have their puppet Lawmakers rubber stamp it into law. Isn't corporatism a wonderful tool for non elected officials to completely strip Citizens of Canada of all of their individual rights and freedoms.

When a government can no longer hear the cries of it's citizens over the bitching and moaning of corporations, then they are no longer a government. This makes them a puppet regime. (See: America)

I filed an appeal, which the WCB never responded to and even though I have repeatedly brought this contentious item up, they refuse to discuss it. How can I have respect for a commission to which my appeal shall never arrive. Just one more BS arm of a very large BS organization. There is not one part of this government that impresses me. Any organization that maliciously pursues defrauding seriously injured workers out of benefits they are legally entitled to, only impresses ultra right wing corporate wing dings. Government BS does not impress me, any farmer will tell you BS ain't worth a hill of beans. Yet, this government doles out BS like it is a valuable commodity. The bureaucrats are doling out horse manure and telling us that it is caviar.
Someone has to put a stop to these lawless bastards, plain and simple.
Since their is no one in this government that is willing to help seriously injured workers. There is no other choice. It is them or us. Democracy is a community, not an idea. Hope may be our only salvation.

C'mon Say what you mean

People always say, C'mon say what you really mean. And that is the purpose of this Blog. It is to express my true feelings toward my Obtuse Obdurate tormentors, you would know them as the Alberta WCB.

The Americans should use NAFTA to put a stop to unfair trading practices in Canada. The Alberta WCB does not help seriously injured workers and cheats all others out of proper compensation. I can't quite see the Meredith Principle from where I am standing. How could the WCB Alberta not have a giant surplus when they won't pay? Giving Alberta employers the lowest WCB rates in Canada. That is an unfair trading practice. I am writing a letter to Hillary Clinton.

Canada Day in Edmonton

How come it doesn't feel like Canada day? I am having a hard time trying to celebrate this day. I live in constant pain and I just can't get excited about today. I was debilitated most of the day. I see people on the television who emigrated here and they are excited. I find that hard to do, considering they did the same thing to my father years ago when he fell. It's not right. I went to see my MP, Peter Goldring's office, she didn't sound to encouraging. My life is not encouraging. I struggle every day to find the courage to continue. I am at my wits end to find someone who can help me get the medical treatment I so desperately need. I did not fall and break my leg. I fell flat on my back and suffered a Spinal Injury..
It is interesting to note that this examination of Evaluting a Spinal Injury of Permanent Clinical Impairment was written in Korea, and is the very best read I have had on the subject.
You see because it was the WCB Alberta's intent to get me to the Millard Health Center and perform an improper FCE, and sell it as a real Spinal IME. Of course their conclusion would have determined that there is nothing wrong with me. They are currently trying to sell a (ROM) FCE performed at REMED as a proper IME, which is ludicrous. The proof of their fraudulent intentions are clear in their Doc in a Box (Dr. Sonnenburg) Page 1, Page 2, Page 3, Page 4, findings that there is nothing wrong with me. Dr. Sonnenburg I am filing a complaint to the College. Perhaps one day we can meet this doctor who's words inflict so much pain.
And this is why it is so important for me to go to a Real multi-disciplinary clinic for assessment and treatment, and a true Spinal IME.
Anyways I hope tomorrow brings a brighter sunshine in my world.
