This is a clickable link to a OIPC decision on sharing medical information. July 10, 2001.
Just as I have always said, and wrote about in my Blog. Plus I have filed complaints with the College of Physicians about these evil shill bastards sharing my information with 3rd party bogus doctors who have never met me and never examined me. A judge in Saskatchewan has just ruled on our Privacy rights. I have always said, they have violated my FOIP privacy rights. Wow one more complaint to file. This is better than going to Law School. Here is the Link http://www.leaderpost.com/news/complaint+well+founded/2204362/story.html Run little bugs run!! Friggin Cockroach CM's and shill doctors. The reason I know what these doctors credentials are is because I went to the medical association office and checked. Canadian College of Family Practitioners, not a orthopedic or spinal specialist at all. It's all here in my blog, this is government sponsored racketeering. You can file complaints with any agency, flush these shill bastards out of their crevices. I know it is enormously time consuming, from experience. But I do believe that somehow in the end it will be worth it. I hope. Here is a letter from Dr. Charleton,(Page 01)(Page02) this is part of my file and as such I own it. This is the document that my claims manager continues to hold up as a medical investigation into my injuries, even after my C-spine MRI was produced. I was able to find doctors reports dating back to when I was seeing my Orthopedic Surgeon in 2006, corroborating my neck pain complaints. I now know why they refuse to release my complete file to my lawyer, they know there is incriminating evidence of their racketeering operation in my file. They refuse to acknowledge these documents and refuse to even return phone calls to my Doctor. I have always said if they want to know anything, just pick up that weird looking device called a telephone and call my physician, as he is my primary care giver. Like I told the appeals commission, their entire organization is one big Joke. It is not a true legal entity, since it does not adhere to any known legal principles, or incorporate any true legal devices. The whole gong show is ripe with corruption. Truly bringing shame to the legal system. I do believe that the government does not like social networking sites that cut them down. But the Gods honest truth to the matter is that the entire WCB network and their substantial network of highly specialized lawyers have been collaborating on a hybrid corporate networking system for many years. And they have governments on their side to make sure that you believe that the problem is the worker, and not the system. This is just the Globalization Machine at work. If the media thinks they are immune, then they are just not paying attention. Stand up for what is right. Unite for the next generation. WCB is trying to turn Patrick Clayton into a enemy of the state. This is a fight for democracy. How will you be counted? What legacy will we leave for our children if we do not stop the enemies of democracy? These people (WCB) have perverted every known law in the land. It is too late to save me, for gods sake save yourselves.

Why does Canadian Law Discriminate Against Injured Workers
During this trip down the road of legal redemption I have ran across a whole cross section of interesting humans. A good deal of injured workers some active, some just fed up fighting a system that is so heavily stacked in favor against them. It truly is a daunting beast to go up against. It has been said that a man that has been stripped of everything, is the most dangerous man in the world. Because in his mind he simply does not have anything to loose. It struck me yesterday in one of my trips down the road of discovery that every single side road that the WCB sends you down ends up being a dead end. When every single avenue of legal and administrative, medical road you turn down ends up a dead end it tears at the very fabric that you once thought was a working part of our society. I used to dream that if I where ever to get a IME, that it would be conducted properly. Video Link example.
The AMA Guidelines to Evaluation of Permanent Impairment, Vol. 4, pp3/98, indicates that a loss of vertebral motion segment integrity is a 20 percent impairment, without positive exam findings. The guidelines also indicate that pain with a loss of function is reason for impairment (Chapter 15).
This is a LIVE Link to a Spine Simulator, helps in your understanding of the complexities of a spinal Injury. I hope this emphasizes how critical these medical decisions are, they cannot be left to drop out flunkies (claims managers).
After so many friends, and other injured workers I have met revealed that they where completely screwed over by the bogus WCB IME exams and ended up with nothing or on welfare for life, I don't live that dream anymore. I was on the misguided belief that once that was conducted, then I would at least have a ELP and a NELP pension to live on. I had dreamed that then if there was any money whatsoever from a genuine IME, and not some play acting charade conducted by a felonious hired doctor with malicious intent, that I could apply those monies to going to the Mayo Clinic to have my injuries treated. I now know that that dream will NEVER happen. Across the board government corruption is spilled across our airwaves every day, and every day nothing is done about it. Firing flunkies, and not the man in charge of flunkies is not dealing with corruption. Not showing true transparency and not revealing the true flaws in the system and working on correcting those corrupt mechanisms, does not show true leadership.
Keep in mind, I walk through multiple mine fields the two most dangerous of which are the WCB Alberta minefield, and the AHS minefield. You could die waiting for treatment from either of these agencies, because they are both trying to fix you for under ten bucks.
Then creating even more secretive mechanisms, amendments to (FOIP) to hide cronyism, corruption and bungling is not the "Spirit to Achieve". That is giving corrupt bureaucracies even more powerful tools and mechanisms to DECEIVE, that is not an achievement in my books. I originally thought that some sort of political solution could be arrived at in my situation. I now know that is another dead end. The politicians in charge are too busy with their own greed agenda, and creating even more bureaucracy and more layers of insulation to cover up their bungling, and ineptitude. This party can't be called the Tory party anymore, it has become the GORY party. Because everything they touch becomes a horribly messy Gory Hackjob, complete with Hackmen, Hatchetmen, and of course the obligatory Bagmen. Why do we not have a Honest Leadership and Open Government Act. So a political solution to my situation is now 100% impossible with these bunglers in charge.
Digging in the Crony pot of moron candidates to run our most critical systems in our society is not paving the road of the future. JFK did not get living breathing men to the moon with cronyism. Remember what happened with George Bush and Katrina? A society built on making sure only your contractor buddies have any involvement in achieving solutions to the problems of the day, is not a progressive society. Hardly leading edge policies. The road forward to meet the challenges of an increasingly complex society is rooted in leadership that can envelop all people. All persons, regardless of ethnicity, political stripe, gender or how big their brown paper bag contributions are. This is not Baghdad, and we do not want a Halliburton and Blackwater mercenary style right wing society. Creating a society with a increasingly divided, agitated population and large parts of that society feeling alienated and discriminated against is not progressive. Openly mocking, bullying and smugly trashing your political opponents because they want real answers to real time crisis', is not indicative of leadership in any arena. I was stunned when I heard Hector Goudreau say there was no need for a overhaul of the WCB Alberta. How can these elected officials stand up and say they represent our citizens? We don't all dream of having a Upgrader built in our back yard, I'm not mentioning any names here. The worlds most powerful economy is shifting gears on how it produces and consumes energy, it is focusing on new technologies. The new American Administration is focusing on new ideas, they don't want their landscape carpeted with SO2 flares. We can either be part of the solution, or be left behind. Having our politicians go to the US and brag about how frigging great we are is not what they want to hear. They want to here how we are going to help our largest trading partner get out of this economic jamb, and pave a new future. Harper and Ed just don't get it. They try to claim that they created the economic climate during the boom. BS, We live in a energy/mineral based commodity economy and that is why we ride on these boom bust waves. They knew the bust was coming and lied to the population, and now they try to distance themselves from the outcome. Claiming, "how could we have known?" And, "this is worldwide, we didn't cause it." WE need real leaders, with real reform. If we do not get on board with reform, when we wake up on the day the Americans have completed theirs it will be too late. For us to support leaders who think they can do a end-run around American policy is just plain stupid. By the time they are done reforming their government policies and labor standards, if we have not, we are going to be in big trouble. Harper was bragging about the Mulroney Free Trade Agreement. That document will come back to haunt Canada if there is not real reform here.
This is Alberta and if the people in charge can not see the future coming, then those people need to be replaced. I believe that my remedy to my WCB situation is a Constitutional Challenge. Our rights as a group or as a individual injured worker have been stripped from us because we got hurt at work. We are being discriminated against by the act of denying us true legal remedial tort. Talk to any judge, he will tell you that is not a board made up off old bagmen. All other citizens, under all other circumstances may apply to the courts for tort remedy, except us. All we want is too stand in front of a real judge(s), not a tea club of old crony bagman from the WCB. When the Charter was signed there existed on the books laws that are contrary to the Charter. The WCB acts in All provinces are in violation of the Charter. You cannot strip us of the right to seek true legal remedy, the charter guarantees it. To have laws on the books that discriminate and strip individuals or groups of rights guaranteed under the Charter, is in direct conflict with the Charter of Rights and Freedoms. We are all protected equally under the Law.
The validity of the Workers Compensation Act should be challenged on the basis that it infringes the equality rights guaranteed in section 15(1) of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms (“the Charter”).
In particular to be specific Section 17 is discriminatory, and as such unconstitutional:
Jurisdiction of Board
17(1) Subject to section 13.1, the Board has exclusive jurisdiction to examine, inquire into, hear and determine all matters and questions arising under this Act or the regulations and the action or decision of the Board on such matters and questions is final and conclusive, and is not open to question or review in any court.
(2) No proceedings by or before the Board shall be restrained by injunction, prohibition or other process or proceedings in any court or are removable by certiorari or otherwise into any court, nor shall any action be maintained or brought against the Board, any employee or officer of the Board or any member of the board of directors in respect of any act or decision done or made in the honest belief that it was within the jurisdiction of the Board.
(3) The Board has authority to reconsider any matter that it has dealt with and to rescind or amend any decision or order previously made by it.
(4) Each matter shall be decided on the merits and justice of the case and the Board is not bound to follow any previous decision or ruling of the Board as a precedent in reaching its decisions or making its rulings.
(5) The Board has the same powers as the Court of Queen’s Bench for compelling the attendance of witnesses and of examining them under oath and compelling the production and inspection of books, papers, documents and things.
(6) The Board may cause depositions of witnesses residing in or outside Alberta to be taken before any person appointed by the Board in a manner similar to that prescribed by the Alberta Rules of Court.
RSA 2000 cW‑15 s17;2002 c27 s10;2005 c48 s2
Because of the publicly renowned mass corruption, abuse of power in creating their own bogus consulted bylaws. The are guilty of mass abuse of human rights. These boards and their Acts of legislation can no longer stand the legal test of legitimacy.
The purveyors of WCB's across this nation have so 100% completely perverted that act, that those documents can no longer be raised as legitimate acts of LAW. To do so is embarrassing the legal profession itself. For any legal intellect to hold that perverted sicko system up as a true legal mechanism, with real tort remedy is completely assinine.
Additionally, no human wants to be forced into a lengthy legal battle for the right to medical treatment of injuries suffered at work. We just want help, real true honest help. I was injured at work, there is no human who wants to be dragged into a legal and medical mine field, laced with bogus medical expert boobie traps. George Bush's crew lost their election, so deal with it.
HMO's are evil.
A famous quote about the Charter he helped shape.
I read a article in the Post by a lawyer who deals with WCB claims across the country, secret agent/buddy. A fantasy out of touch rag, if you believe that BS you ARE a moron. Another sell out, no shortage of them. Level playing field, talk about deluded. Smelly journalism without investigation is not journalism.
The idea of a law firm that advises large employers, while representing injured workers is a old american platform. If you cannot see the trap door in that arrangement, you deserve what ever you get.

Patrick Clayton Defense Fund
I can sympathize with Patrick Clayton. I know what it is to be abused by these shill bastards. When you talk about Drug Addicts, let us not forget the Heroin addicts, crack addicts, meth freaks and drunks who work for WCB Alberta. It is a matter of public record that this gang of drunks and druggies have stolen MILLIONS OF DOLLARS from hard working Albertan s. They don't even have to go to jail, why? You got it. Alberta Hillbilly Nepotism at work. These people are a gang of evil shill bastards. Want proof. Here is a link to the Mother Corp. American Association of State Compensation Boards. When Patrick Clayton went up against these dirt bags, he was unaware that he was going up against a very sophisticated, highly refined and honed legal machine. I have always said right from the start of my dealings with this gang of fools, "This is an American Model". Canadians are too dumb to pull off a Insurance Scheme of this magnitude. The very last people on earth who have any latitude whatsoever for mudslinging in this affair, is any shill WCB employees, anywhere in Canada. Is your neighbor suddenly moving, now you know why. Boy, this government sure hang with some highfalutin classy types. I wonder what other things Jethro and company have been doing. I am going to start going to the leg regular to see exactly why our elected officials are getting paid and I am not. Remember what I said about a puppet regime? Bunch of Pinnochio's. The real hostages in this entire mess, are the seriously injured workers who were cheated out of their future, by a felonious sham operation known as the WCB Alberta
. These people are the true victims, and have been robbed of medications, medical care in all forms, retraining, and the ability to feed and clothe their families. These people have had their future stolen from them, not just from having to live their lives with disabilities left untreated, which can cause a whole litany of complications as a result. But from not having proper retraining, for occupations that will NOT result in further damage to their already broken bodies. Hostages because of the malicious attack unleashed on them by WCB Alberta, resulting in bankrupt families, families torn to pieces with the survivors left broke, depressed and stigmatized by our government. So as a result these victims are left to their own devices to fend off depression and suicidal tendencies. To be shut out of the opportunities we used to enjoy in society as fully functional, happy contributing members of society is a hell in itself. To be denied proper medical care, medications and medical treatment that could help ease some of our physical, mental suffering is heartbreaking to these victims. The claims managers at the WCB Alberta play mind games with us, torment us, and mock us. They know exactly how critical our medical treatments are to us. They use this to mentally torture us, they know exactly what the effect of denying us medical treatment will do to seriously injured workers. They do this to enrage us, resulting in seriously injured workers being banned from their premises. These people are trained in these tactics. As a result we are marginalized, labeled as crazy, stigmatized as "one of those crazy malinger injured workers". Some of these workers end up homeless as I did. A social worker and my friends advice helped pull me back from the precipice. So you are left completely bankrupt financially, mentally exhausted, and medically untreated injured worker staggering around wondering, "What the Hell went wrong?" To advocate such heinous deliberate willful malicious acts of social terrorism on your society will result in a society that is socially bankrupt. As a result we end up feeling trapped, abused, mentally tortured and not knowing whether or not our government will unleash even harsher penalties on us. We live in fear every day of the government cutting off whatever tiny little stipends that we receive. This government governs by "FEAR". I never used to be afraid of my government. But I am now. For what? Why? Because I got hurt at work? Good men and women are dying in Afghanistan, to protect democracy. You cannot hold up this organization (WCB) as a shining example of democracy, and how democracy treats its own citizens. If the Cowboys in charge will not reign in these rogue cows, then you know what? It is time for a showdown at the OK Corral. Phone your government representative, let them know you don't approve of torturing injured workers. Let Alberta WCB know when you talk to them that you are not happy. Keep up the pressure. Where is my Bed Colleen? I'm waiting in pain my sweet adorable claims manager. And guess what? I am not going to court to get it.
Democracy is a community, not an idea.

Injured Worker Initiated Alberta Stimulus Package
Well if there is one good thing to come out of this, imagine the millions the government is now going to have to spend on security across this province. Funny ED you and your crew claim that the Workers Compensation Board is a independent corporate entity, why is now necessary to beef up security at all your Government offices. Feeling a little insecure are we? That's it ED, further insulate yourself from the population. You know in the old days you guys used to just build a fort. This is really starting to feel like an Oligarchy.Well at least the money the government saved on my care is being spent well.
I am happy to announce on behalf of injured workers everywhere: A injured worker initiated "Stimulus Package". This is exactly what this province needs. Puts lots of people to work. As a bonus, they don't even need retraining. They are security guards. They need even less retraining than a injured Ironworker does. Good job ED. You guys just keep applying ToryNomics. Don't inject a stimulus package into the medical system by actually giving medical care to injured workers. No better yet, let the taxpayers of Alberta pay for my tests and ongoing care for the next 20 years. This is what happens when you let your drop-out relatives make medical decisions on behalf of the medical community. Not helping injured workers with their medical care is really just Another cleverly disguised HIDDEN TAX on hard working Albertans. Make CPP disability, the provinces welfare system and other governments across Canada pay for our care. It is the Alberta Way. Download responsibility on to a taxpayer funded agency. The total sum burden that has been downloaded onto taxpayers over decades by corporate employers is "Mammoth", incalculable really. You really have to give credit where credit is due. Government sponsored cleverly disguised taxes for decades is a gigantic accomplishment. C'mon Ed, give another speech about how low taxes are in "HELLberta". Phone the President of Canada (Stephen Harper), I'm sure they can add some of their own BS spin to this issue. Moo.
LADYS AND GENTLEMAN may I have your attention please. Looks like it is time for a Road Trip to Ottawa.

Government sponsored cleverly disguised taxes for decades is a gigantic accomplishment. C'mon Ed, give another speech about how low taxes are in "HELLberta". Phone the President of Canada (Stephen Harper), I'm sure they can add some of their own BS spin to this issue. Moo.
LADYS AND GENTLEMAN may I have your attention please. Looks like it is time for a Road Trip to Ottawa.
Alberta and the loss of hope
Judging by the Alberta governments response, nothing is going to change. As I expected they are beefing up security across the board at all government buildings. Is the WCB saving employers money yet? Will the guy running this gong show stand up and make the shill bastards that are abusing our hard working citizens accountable, Not! These people are relatives of the government, they are not going to give up their do nothing jobs. They would not be able to rob us blind then. How will they get free financing for their time share projects in B.C.? Will the whistle blowers come forward, not likely. The robber barons are too busy running. Watching all hope fade before your eyes is truly a horrible experience. Any statistics the WCB produces is complete Blarney. Persons from this government open their mouths and B.S. comes out. Moo. The WCB Alberta and the government is making a "Mockery of Democracy". This is not the Alberta I grew up in. Here is a link to the CBC Radio Show the Current which I was interviewed on.

Armed man enters WCB Edmonton
The Alberta WCB is just plain bad Karma. And you know what they say about bad Karma, what goes around comes around. Fortunately no one was injured in the standoff. Do I now believe that the Hellberta Government is going to take action and actually make the WCB compensate seriously injured workers? The answer is NO, I do not! We have been lied to before by TORY Corp. Never happen this is a pro-business government and why would a conservative government put and end to what amounts to a hidden TAX on Albertans and Canadians. When the WCB does not pay, the taxpayers across Canada end up paying for the health care and living expenses of seriously injured workers from Alberta. Why are the taxpayers on the hook for my care, and some of it is very expensive. The Alberta WCB obviously has no clue as to what the word "fiduciary" means. More importantly, they do not care either. Who gave these guys an Insurance License anyways. My doctor and all the non WCB health care workers I have encountered in this entire experience have been professional. The only people I have encountered who are 100% non professional, and have not treated me with respect and dignity is the Workers Compensation Board staff, right from day 1. I have been asking for a bed for over 3 1/2 years now. My doctor has prescribed it. If you worked for the WCB what would be the very first item you would buy for a person who fell and broke his back? Good guess, a bed. I sleep on a futon mattress on the floor. I know my government and their pals all sleep on cushy pocket coils. Thanks ED, good job. Now cancel my rent subsidy. Oops, too late Capital Region Housing already did that, who would want to help a disabled person? How is this ending homelessness in Alberta? We now know that Conservative MLA's are impotent against the WCB Alberta, or are they? They are probably given a TORY script. Finally, will seriously injured workers across Canada every get to appear before the Standing Committee on Human Rights, not likely. The (JUST) committee will quickly sweep past us, remember this is a conservative government. Human rights for Canadians, what are you out of your mind. It is all here in my Blog, including live links to my documents, and a good portion of my documents at the bottom of my blog page.

George Bush visits Edmonton
It is funny how seemingly innocuous events are connected. George Bush visits Edmonton to speak to the Oil Elite, and to keep the corporate piracy dream alive. The Americans ran him out of town, and we throw him a party. George Bush fully represents the right wing agenda. The corporate piracy that his gang represents is responsible for the corporate gang rape of North America. George W Bush and his pals are responsible for the Global Melt Down. Right wing corporate greed and the worship of money is why the WCB corporate model is so tightly embraced by our Conservative Government here in Canada. The HMO's of America have highly honed this model until it is a true hybrid of the American Corporate Medical Machine. Fully engaging the corporate medical model of America, is what our Alberta Conservative Government is busy implementing right before our eyes. If you cannot see this, you may be living on Mars. The United States of America is busy trying to shake this model, not here, Tories embrace this model. Our government is starving for health dollars, no need to raise taxes or fees to fund it. Just run the system into the ground. When that is completed, roll out the American model. Touting it as the only available option that will save our health care system that the Conservatives are so intent on killing. All this while 900 Million Dollars is being spent on the new "Edmonton Clinic". Well once they have fully mashed the current system, and that of course will include crushing those pesky health care unions that all Tories hate. Then it will be time for their new and improved pay for services system, and with a new Super Board to ensure that those Goddamn poor people don't abuse the system and actually get proper health care. Then our governments true agenda will have been completed. All hail George Bush! Once again the true right wing agenda rears its ugly head. When you are relying on corporate health care, guess what? You're "Denied". When this is all done, the only people who will be able to access top notch medical care are the people who work for the top corporations. Like, Oil companies who pay for the absolute best health care "Supplemental Insurance" for their employees. That's who is going to be getting care at the new Edmonton Clinic. You can watch from the sidewalk. Financed by public funds and administered by Corporations. It is the Alberta Way! The reason this government has no money is because 3 of their contractor friends have to be paid 80 dollars in order for you to be delivered 30 dollars of anything. More corporation, less government. How's that working out for everyone? This government does not care who they have to torture and starve in order to achieve their goals. It makes my sad to know others will suffer as I have suffered.

Alberta Health to close beds
As an Albertan who is completely immersed in the Alberta Health Care System, I am bewildered at such a decision. Every day in this province is like waking up to an episode of the Simpsons. Who is in charge of this Gong show? It is like a total recall of the Ralph Klein Health Care "DeKline". Why is our government aggressively attacking our grossly overtaxed health care system, that they themselves ("DeKline Care")created. Or pardon me, that should read "Mangled". Albertans who are in need of Acute care recently can attest to the need for an expanded Acute Care program, not the opposite. This governments massively gross failure to acknowledge the looming need for across the board infrastructure expansion before the "BOOM" began, has created all of the infrastructure crisis' that we are now experiencing. I really do believe that Albertans as a whole are completely fed up with this governments knee jerk "Reactive" decision making. The ineptness of this government is truly frightening. I got to experience Tory acute care first hand, a surgeon who could care less about my neck when I was first admitted, followed by being kicked to the curb by a physio department before I was ready, with absolutely no "home care" in place for me when I arrived. And none for a week. Yep, this Alberta alright. Made in Alberta (Made on the "CHEAP"). Where homelessness is not a lifestyle choice, it is a Alberta government administered program. What is Ed's new motto, Freedom to WAIT!! In a hospital hallway that is!!Spirit to leave. I think his new "spirit" is shelling your last pay cheque into a VLT. I find it interesting that the US Ambassador visits Alberta
and our government does not show him around. I have long wondered if abusing and denying critical medical care to disabled injured workers is a "New Conservative value", or are they Old Conservative values?
I do apologize for not updating my blog recently. I recently moved into a apartment with a roommate so I could have access to an elevator. Since my mobility continues to decline, this move is critical. I want to thank all who helped a partially disabled person with this move. It has taken up almost every spare moment of my time recently. It has taken me over a month from start to finish on this move. I just received word of my referral to the pain clinic at the U of A in two months. Which will amount to a total of 8 month wait for that appointment. I have spent the last couple of months working on completing all of the necessary requirements for AISH and CPP disability. Since those programs are of concrete and of real substance.
I can only rely in legitimate programs, programs with real legitimate appeal processes, and working acute decision resolution processes. Not a phoney baloney program such as Alberta WCB, which waves around a BS flag(WCB appeals), touting it as a working decision resolution process. I wallowed in that quagmire for years, with zero to show for it. Being seriously injured and relying on their BS system for my health care is like landing on a Syncrude Tailings Pond and being sucked to the bottom with the other wildlife. I really do believe that the new Alberta Health Super Board is going to be run on the same principles. It is consistent with this governments application of one "Hack Job" solution, right over top of one of their other "Hack Job" miracles. This governments "private" over "publicly" run solutions are an absolute disaster. If ToryCorp would work half as hard at properly staffing and funding our health care sytem, as they do on dismantling it, we would have a world class system that we all could be proud of.
On top of it all Capital Region Housing phoned to day to terminate my subsidy. I tried to explain my medical need for a building with a elevator. My doctor has provided a letter to this effect. The girl just kept repeating over and over, "those are the rules". Terrific. Just what I need, more obdurates in my life. The purpose of the program is to ensure that persons do not end up homeless. I am going downtown to try to get a meeting with Barb Sommerfield, her supervisor. Barb refuses to meet with me or produce a response to my appeal. Just another government hatchet man. It looks like I am heading for a complaint to the privacy commissioner. That brings it to 9 government corp/offices I am dealing with. More Corporation, less government is the Tory Credo. How's that working out for us all? I could write an entire book on the side effects of my spinal injury. Suffice it to say that my condition continues to deteriorate. My current medical condition is really starting to wear on my mental state. As old Rueben used to say, "Man what a life!"

The Dream of Freedom
It has been weeks since I have updated my blog. I had hoped that since I had delivered a copy of the prescription my doctor wrote for my orthopedic bed, eventually something would happen. I left a message on Colleen Bamford's answering machine, that her message says she never checks. I believe it, a do nothing getting paid to do guess what? Nothing. Ain't nepotism great? Well at least someone related to a big Alberta construction firm is picking up a paycheque for doing absolutely nothing, except picking up bonuses for abusing seriously injured workers. Good job Colleen.
It is interesting in her last letter she quotes the writer as being unable to find any evidence. Well if you sit around all day doing nothing, your investigation will as a matter of course, turn up no new findings. Neither Collen Bamford, nor her new Hack doctor (Mr. Charleton) even attempted to do a thoroughly complete competent investigation for evidence of prior neck complaints. Once again the findings of any of the WCB so called investigations read like some sort of sick perverted Reform School itinerary. They twist the facts until they are all distorted, and really at that point they reach the prominence of outright lies. I have given this felonious insurance corporation every possible opportunity to help me, but they still refuse me even the pleasantry of a good night's sleep. And then as a final insult they tell me that the only way I am allowed to communicate with them is via written communiques. Which is another falsehood in itself since they don't respond to those either. They seem to think that they (WCB Alberta) have a monopoly on feelings. This is John's story in B.C. on you tube.
I've postulated the idea that the WCB offices across Canada and the US are rotating their KOOK doctors to avoid conviction of conspiracy. I can now see why they had to form a WCB Club to share felonious ideas. If this were not true then a responsible organization would reign in their loose cannons, or bar them.
How humiliating for legitimate insurance companies who actually have to help injured persons, medically and financially. I have heard absolutely nothing since I produced the evidence to my doctor and he agrees that the evidence that I hurt my neck when I fell is undeniable. The WCB refuses to respond in any way. Just one more trick in their never ending bag of tricks to deny legitimately injured workers any kind of help. Due process, in my eyes seems like an ideal that is a million miles away. Something as unreachable as freedom was for the slaves of America. I now know what it is to be persecuted in your own country, a true injustice has been committed here. I have waited over 3 years for a chance to be heard in a true court of law. I now realize that I will never have my day in court, that is a true Canadian fantasy. It is now clear that any sort of Kangaroo IME that the WCB Alberta would put together, would just be another complete farce. Complete with KOOK IME doctors, it would be a complete embarassment to the Alberta Health Sciences community. I don't dream of that phoney WCB act anymore.
Freedom is an illusion. Persecution by one human being who is more powerful than our government, law courts, our entire medical community is not a quality of democracy our Prime Minister should be bragging about. He sneers at China regarding human rights, look in your own back yard Stephen.
It is difficult most days to produce any new blog content because of the physical problems my neck is causing. The same goes for dealing with any of the dozens of letters I need to write to officials, looking down at documents actually sets off the "popping" of my neck. I am no different than any other human being on this planet. I was born with precisely the same number of nerve endings as any other human, I feel pain and fatigue just as any other human would. And, I was born with exactly the same amount of feelings, neurological and physical feelings as any other person. As a result I have been kept quite busy finalizing all of the paperwork required for the completion of my CPP, and the necessary paperwork for AISH.
To this day I am absolutely stunned as to exactly why I am being forced to apply for AISH. My medical and physical needs are in no way the responsibility of the Government(Taxpayers) of Alberta. The government cleverly forgets to mention this little fact that it is the taxpayers of Alberta, and the rest of Canada that are on the hook for the care of these permanently disabled persons. Why? The Meredith principle should be renamed the Canadian Dream. I will phone do nothing's supervisor Trevor Dill today. It is probably her cousin.

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
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 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.

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.

Workers' Compensation: News Headlines: OSHA: Labor Secretary Hilda Solis Says Dept. of Labor Is Ready to Get to Work to Protect Workers

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.

Injured Alberta IronWorker Bad News
Well the news just keeps getting worse. I finally get my MRI approved and my lawyer writes me to tell me he does not believe that Legal Aid should fund me. The primary problem with this logic, is the fact that another lawyer already wrote a Legal Opinion on my file and concluded that I do have a valid case. My lawyer's point is moot. I wish that if he does not want my file, then by all means pass it on to a lawyer who does. Honestly, I have my plate full just trying to fight Alberta WCB without having to babysit my Lawyer and lead him around by the hand. Once again Alberta WCB has lied to my MLA's assistant and told her that my lawyer requested my file on May 1, when in fact that consent was faxed on April 3rd, 2009. My doctors request for a MRI was submitted on May 1st.
What really gets me down is:
1. Where is my due process?
2. When does the WCB stop lying and start helping?
3. The appeal process is supposed to be a dispute mechanism, and not a DESTRUCTION OF HOPE TOOL for Claims Managers
4. Where is my IME (Independent Medical Examination)? It is to be conducted at the end of the 2 year period. It is conducted at that time because it is accepted by the Medical Profession that any nerve damage that was done, would have been healed as much as it will ever heal by the end of this time frame. Their acronym is MMI (maximum medical improvement).
5. My Injury is listed as a PCI. Which means I am partially disabled and once my IME is Conducted, my ELP and NELP will have been established and can be disbursed.
6. This is Alberta Government sanctioned Fraud. And I am tired of it. How is any human expected to deal with these Obtuse Obdurates for another 20 years?
7. It is only 3 and a half years and I am ready to kill myself. I was never suicidal until I had to deal with the Felonious Government Insurance Scheme,known as the WCB Alberta.
8. Why have I not been allowed to go to the "Mayo Clinic in Rochester Minn?"
9. I was referred to the Mayo Clinic in Rochester Minnesota last year by my Doctor, and WCB Alberta immediately responded by closing my file. The WCB Alberta mob of idiots has had their share of time to execute their retard fraud show.
10. Now it is my turn. They have proven their ineptitude time and time again. They do not collaborate my health care treatments in good faith. They have proven that they have absolutely no intention of helping a seriously injured worker.
11. I am in constant unending pain and I want some help. I want to go to the Mayo Clinic to which I was referred, and my doctor and Surgeon have already forwarded my medical records last year.
12. You would not treat a dog in this manner. So why does our government sanction the treatment of humans in this manner?
13. Why am I not allowed to have a Case Manager who is not discriminatory, and why has no higher official at WCB Alberta intervened and done a complete review of my case?
Once again, I would like to thank Tony Vandermeer's Office for all of their help. God bless Brenda Goebel. I was misled into believing that Tony Vandermeer's Office was actually doing ANY work on my file. I initially was very grateful and humbled to have a PC MLA actually pretend to do work on my file.
I originally was duped into believing that Tony Vandermeer actually cared about a terrible injustice being perpetrated against a disabled person.
Boy was I ever stupid enough to believe that ANY PC MLA could give a crap about hard working Albertans.
Tony Vandermeer's Office stabbed me in the back and told me on a return visit to
"Forget about my injury and MOVE On with my life".
There is a god and he does not like do-nothing Floaters like Tony Vandermeer either, and Tony was DEFEATED in the 2012 Alberta Election.
Just so there are NO hard feelings Tony Vandermeer, I have some advice and some comforting advice for Tony on his defeat,
"Forget about it TONY and move on with your Life"!
Oh yes and thank you Deb, and Dr. Adebayo. You two keep saving my life, and I am humbled. Thank you Doug for your support and those who have been a sounding board for my nervous breakdown. TY Kim for knowing what to do, and when. Who knew PTSD is triggered by obdurate s?

Working in Alberta
Working in Albertais a funny sort of conservative
paradigm. If you do not work in this province you are looked down upon, because the general populace believes that you have some sort of character fault. Even if you are partially disabled. The Alberta Government Felonious Insurance Scheme will not help you in any way. That means medications, rehabilitation, medical attention of any kind, or retraining so that I will not have to
break my back, againin order to bring home a paycheck. Nor will they finally live up to their fuduciary responsibility and pay for a real multidisciplinary assessment of my injuries, and of my current physical functional limitations so that a economic loss payment can be arrived at.
There really is no reason to postulate the legalities of my situation, since
WCB AlbertaOperates so far outside what is considered
lawfulthat to dream about any sort of legal and fair resolution of my case is a completely moot point.
If a injured worker or any other outside observer where to want to study the WCB Alberta system, they would find a website that does not work, absolutely no online access to WCB Case Law here in this province. And as such, researchers would simply have to speculate on the actual documents that are supposedly posted on WCB Alberta 's website.
I find it very amusing that the Law Society of Alberta would allow such and entity to be created, one that cannot be successfully sued. And a legal arm of the government that swings a giant "Legal Axe" in its own defense yet does not have WCB Case Law posted on its website, or access to such a library.
When the legal might of a 1.3 billion dollar Government Agency is busy legally suffocating the life out of an individual, that person it not allowed access to case law in his or her own defense. I am no legal genius, but I am pretty damn sure that any use of a government sanctioned legal system, would have to incorporate access to such a library.
Since a billion dollar funded private legal system has been unleashed on a private citizen, that citizen should have access to their case law. Simply because, in no place in any part of the legal system is it absolutely mandatory to have a lawyer for representation. And as such clients, as a fundamental right should have access to the complete WCB Alberta case law library. This is not 1950, it should be posted online the same as other government agencies. If that is not possible then the government should pay for my legal defense. That way their buddies can get paid too. Lets spread the joy around some.
I hope that the Top Brass at the offices of WCB Alberta are proud of themselves. They have successfully managed to lie, cheat and steal my Pension from me. I will now receive no compensation for my Permanent Clinical Impairment, and any medical needs,or monthly subsistence, or any monies for retraining.
I did receive a phone call from the Royal Alex Hospital yesterday informing me that I will have a appointment for a MRI on my neck on Sunday the 12th day of July @ 11:00 am on a Sunday. I originally thought that my MLA's influence helped. However, I have since learned that the Taxpayers of Alberta were once again made to pay for my MRI Scan. I never did get my CT Scan of my C-Spine. Since Colleen Bamford already turned me down for my tests and my bed. We shall see. It would be nice to know what it is like to completely be able to turn my head again.

Drowning in a Sea of WCB Alberta B.S.
Today I am going to the office of Tony Vandermeer and thank his assistant for her efforts. Tony Vandermeer and other Alberta MLA's are oblivious to the fact that the Alberta WCB wields more power than the Alberta Government Caucus. I am completely respectful of all who try to help me, but in this case going to my Alberta MLA has actually "Hurt" my fight against Alberta WCB.
Collen Bamford sent me a letter denying me my CT and MRI scans of my C-Spine. My situation was hopeless before and now it is a complete disaster. I am going to have to go it alone against the Alberta WCB monster. At least prior to visiting my "Elected" officials office I was able to access a MRI scan, albeit took 8 weeks. That is still better than "NEVER". She knows not what a truly monstrous beast the WCB really is.
It is a joke. This government has no power, they are a puppet of the corporations. The facists have taken over. These are truly dark days for democracy, freedom and the idea that this is a good place to live.

Excuse me while I have my Human rights stripped away
Tomorrows Post
I am never at awe anymore when the WCB Alberta strips away yet even more of my individual rights under the charter, or the phoney rights that are supposed to be adhered to by WCB Alberta.
From the very beginning, once I had arrived home from the Hospital, which I did not want to leave because of my extreme physical limitations. I knew that WCB Alberta would not have home care in place, and guess what?, they did not. I started receiving letters from WCB Alberta about the looming return to work date. I was stunned, they (http://www.wcb.ab.ca), had embarked on a program of Intimidation and coercion right from the beginning. Case Plan Letter Page 1, 2, 3, 4. The RAH is not responsible for the WCB shoddy home care operation. Had the Hospital set it up, it would have been in place before I arrived.
The threats and intimidation (coercion) did not end there, they had to get me to the Millard Health Center to fully invoke their sinister plan. The trap was set and all they needed was for me to walk in the door. They (WCB Alberta) had "profiled" me right from the beginning and had no plans whatsoever of planning my Rehabilitation. They were simply springing a trap for me to walk into. Knowing full well that I was under extreme physical and mental duress. They knew it would not take much to use duress as a tool to psychologically stomp all over me. And they executed it beautifully in a WCB Alberta kind of way.
The woman who did my FCE (functional capacity evaluation) then produced a document and herded me into a office with a camera in the ceiling. (Strange form of Rehab) She wrote I had "imagined my injuries to be greater than they actually were". I told her that the majority of my pain in my lumbar and lower area was radiating from the area of my original injury. She told me that I had signed off on that injury years ago (Untrue) and that I would have to sign a similar document now. I refused. She told me I had to and again I refused. She returned sometime later and said that I would not have to sign the document and I left. Dr. Sonnenburg himself wrote WCB Alberta that I have had 3 compensation related previous back injury claims.
It was when I went to meet with the director of return to work services, and that is when all the trouble started. You guessed it!, time to have more of my individual rights stripped away. Bruce Eidick produced a document, that said very explicitly that I had to show up every day @ 8 a.m. sharply or I would be cut off. That was not possible then and to this day is not possible. When I am up all night in pain that is not possible. Every doctor knows that a side effect of Chronic Pain is Chronic Fatigue. And at this rate I will never get my proper Rehabilitation.
It also stated that if I did not make it in, that I had to phone in at precisely 8 a.m. sharp or I would be permanently cut off of benefits. I informed him that this was not possible. He left and returned to tell me there was a phone call in the control room for me.
It was my wonderfully abrasive Claims Manager Kim Kroetsch, and she yelled at me if I did not sign that document that I would be cut off of benefits. God, how I love how the WCB Alberta so gleefully throws around threats and coercion as a Rehabilitation Tool.
Important Note
I think that it is important to note at this time that, during my time in the hospital originally Doctor Zhiang my Orthopedic Surgeon had considered sending me to the Glenrose Hospital for Rehabilitation. I really don't think he fully understood the underlying consequences of letting the "hackboys" at Millard have a go at me. And the fact that the WCB Alberta was already pre-disposed to a program of discrimination against myself. They cannot dispute this since this letter is living proof of their program.
I wonder if the Mayo Clinic Spinal Fusion Rehabilitation Tools and techniques, employ terror, threats and coercion in their day to day operations?
Obviously seriously injured workers might as well get used to crappy medical care right from the Start. That way they won't know any different and will believe that this is the way "Privately Administered Health Care In Alberta", is administered. Thats it WCB Alberta, set the bar low. From that moment to the present day, I have been subjected to extremely low level "Cheapco" care. At it's very worst was the day I got back surgery to have my hardware removed. I would commit suicide before I would let them do major back surgery on me, on an "outpatient" basis. I mean it. I wanted to kill myself for 2 days afterward. This is the best our system can deliver? You can't even keep a person in for 48 hours of observation and direct delivery of morphine through injection for serious operations.
Yep this is Cheap out Alberta Alright.
I have been asking for a bed since I got out of the hospital 3 years ago. No one ever came around as I was told to evaluate my bed (duh, I broke my back). What do you suppose is the very first thing you would buy for a serious back injury client? Duh!!, a bed! So it really came as no surprise that Colleen Bamford denied my request for a decent bed. I don't really think I have to go further on this subject, not even for the uneducated.
The WCB Alberta is so funny because they go on about their much prized "Appeal" process. It is all B.S. And even the Premier_of_Alberta will tell you, B.S. ain't worth a hill of beans. My very first appeal that I submitted on Sept. 10th, 2007 was fed into the paper shredder by WCB Alberta. It was never filed and I never did get my appeal heard by an appeal board or any higher panel. They have destroyed it and refuse to even acknowledge that they received it.
Thank you once again WCB Alberta for stripping away my rights to appeal. Why would I need those stupid damn rights, huh?
Then when I was cut off the second time by C Bamford, I immediately called the Office of the Appeals Advisor and spoke with a representative there. He retrieved my name + file number and informed me that I was an extremely smart man. Strange, we had only been speaking a couple of moments. And then he informed me that I was probably under investigation for "fraud".
I was absolutely floored, stunned and in disbelief that a rep from the Advisor's Office would speak in such a condescending tone. And that as the say, was that. That was my one and only exposure to this "phoney appeals advisor figurhead". So much for my right to appeal, Again.
My mother told me before she died, she was terribly ill for months in the RAH right after I was cut off of benefits the first time by Kim Kroetsch. Sieg Heil.
She told me, and I quote, " Never give up your rights, because you will never get them back." I only hope that the citizens of Alberta understand this as they stand by idly and watch their health care rights steadily eroded.
I can tell you from the standpoint of a person whose medical care is "Dictated" by a Private Insured Health Care Provider, that health delivered by a super board is totally crappy. Why? Duh, because they dole out care to whomever are their friends, not you and your friends. As such if you are not connected, guess what you get squat baby.
"And the people stood by and blithely watched as their rights were stripped from them".

I really don't think he fully understood the underlying consequences of letting the "hackboys" at Millard have a go at me. And the fact that the WCB Alberta was already pre-disposed to a program of discrimination against myself. They cannot dispute this since this letter is living proof of their program.
I wonder if the Mayo Clinic Spinal Fusion Rehabilitation Tools and techniques, employ terror, threats and coercion in their day to day operations?
Obviously seriously injured workers might as well get used to crappy medical care right from the Start. That way they won't know any different and will believe that this is the way "Privately Administered Health Care In Alberta", is administered. Thats it WCB Alberta, set the bar low. From that moment to the present day, I have been subjected to extremely low level "Cheapco" care. At it's very worst was the day I got back surgery to have my hardware removed. I would commit suicide before I would let them do major back surgery on me, on an "outpatient" basis. I mean it. I wanted to kill myself for 2 days afterward. This is the best our system can deliver? You can't even keep a person in for 48 hours of observation and direct delivery of morphine through injection for serious operations.
Yep this is Cheap out Alberta Alright.
I have been asking for a bed since I got out of the hospital 3 years ago. No one ever came around as I was told to evaluate my bed (duh, I broke my back). What do you suppose is the very first thing you would buy for a serious back injury client? Duh!!, a bed! So it really came as no surprise that Colleen Bamford denied my request for a decent bed. I don't really think I have to go further on this subject, not even for the uneducated.
The WCB Alberta is so funny because they go on about their much prized "Appeal" process. It is all B.S. And even the Premier_of_Alberta will tell you, B.S. ain't worth a hill of beans. My very first appeal that I submitted on Sept. 10th, 2007 was fed into the paper shredder by WCB Alberta. It was never filed and I never did get my appeal heard by an appeal board or any higher panel. They have destroyed it and refuse to even acknowledge that they received it.
Thank you once again WCB Alberta for stripping away my rights to appeal. Why would I need those stupid damn rights, huh?
Then when I was cut off the second time by C Bamford, I immediately called the Office of the Appeals Advisor and spoke with a representative there. He retrieved my name + file number and informed me that I was an extremely smart man. Strange, we had only been speaking a couple of moments. And then he informed me that I was probably under investigation for "fraud".
I was absolutely floored, stunned and in disbelief that a rep from the Advisor's Office would speak in such a condescending tone. And that as the say, was that. That was my one and only exposure to this "phoney appeals advisor figurhead". So much for my right to appeal, Again.
My mother told me before she died, she was terribly ill for months in the RAH right after I was cut off of benefits the first time by Kim Kroetsch. Sieg Heil.
She told me, and I quote, " Never give up your rights, because you will never get them back." I only hope that the citizens of Alberta understand this as they stand by idly and watch their health care rights steadily eroded.
I can tell you from the standpoint of a person whose medical care is "Dictated" by a Private Insured Health Care Provider, that health delivered by a super board is totally crappy. Why? Duh, because they dole out care to whomever are their friends, not you and your friends. As such if you are not connected, guess what you get squat baby.
"And the people stood by and blithely watched as their rights were stripped from them".
