Calgary,

-‐
Alison
Redford,
in
the
interest
of
openness,
fairness
and
equality,
has
called
for
a
judicial
inquiry
into
allegations
of
queue
jumping
in
our
health
care
system.
The
inquiry
should
focus
on
political
interference
into
the
provincial
health
care
system.
“Dr.
Duckett,
in
his
address
of
May
5th,
stated
outright
that
before
his
tenure
as
CEO
of
the
AHS,
people
of
the
‘political
class’
were
accustomed
to
being
granted
higher
access
in
the
system
than
those
who
were
not
as
connected,”
stated
Alison
Redford,
candidate
for
leader
of
the
PC
Party.
“This
statement,
when
combined
with
earlier
allegations
of
a
culture
of
intimidation,
has
provided
the
impetus
to
call
for
an
independent
inquiry.”
“As
a
former
Justice
Minister,
fairness
and
equality
for
all
are
foundational
values.
When
I
hear
about
inequality,
I
am
always
extremely
concerned.”
“My
call
for
an
inquiry
is
about
finding
out
the
truth
and
putting
a
stop
to
practices
that
go
against
my
personal
and
political
values.
These
allegations
may
be
true.
Or
not.
Regardless,
we
need
to
find
answers
to
restore
confidence
in
one
of
our
most
important
public
institutions.”
“Health
care
must
be
equal
and
accessible
for
all
Albertans.
That
is
why
I
have
stood
so
strongly
for
Family
Care
Clinics
and
Continuing
Care
Centres.
These
two
initiatives
are
designed
to
increase
access
for
all
Albertans.
Not
Albertans
with
the
right
friends.”
