Former Alberta minister calls for government transparency, tables cabinet notes
The former Alberta cabinet minister removed from caucus says he’s been pestering the government in question period and tabling a series of documents in the legislature in an effort to provide transparency.
Peter Guthrie says transparency has been missing from the United Conservative government as it continues to navigate a health-care contract scandal.
Guthrie says he’s trying to make up for that by making public pages of meeting notes he kept from his time in cabinet.
The handwritten notes are from meetings earlier this year during which he says he was misled by Premier Danielle Smith and Health Minister Adriana LaGrange about what they knew and when.
