Alberta Health Services (AHS) is a Canadian provincial public health agency of the Government of Alberta. It operates under the Alberta Ministry of Health.
¶ History
Alberta Health Services set up the AHS Emergency Coordination Centre in January 2020.[1] It oversaw the activities of the AHS COVID-19 Scientific Advisory Group.[2]
On July 2, 2020, AHS announced it had been invited by the World Economic Forum (WEF) to join its Global Coalition for Value in Healthcare "to play a role in shaping future healthcare on the international stage."[3]
In October 2022, Premier Danielle Smith stated that she would pull AHS out of its consulting agreement with the WEF.[4]
On June 1, 2023, AHS distributed an internal memo announcing that Deena Hinshaw had been hired as their Indigenous Wellness Core Public Health & Preventive Medicine Lead.[5]
On June 13, 2023, Patrick Heinsen of Borden Ladner Gervais (BLG) sent Dr. Daniel Nagase a letter on behalf of AHS demanding he remove his Substack articles titled "A deadly day in the ER: My thoughts on a patient’s deadly ER visit" and "The Difference Between Negligence and Homicide: a process in thought".[6] AHS legal counsel Sarah Louw was also copied on the e-mail.[7]
¶ Organization
AHS has provided funding to 19 to Zero,[8] and participated as a partner in the This Is Our Shot mass advertising campaign for COVID-19 vaccines.[9]
