The WCB annual general meeting is in Calgary this year on June 11, 2015. If you wish to attend you must pre register with the WCB Communication Department. The meeting is short and the WCB mandate is to advise the public of the great statistics and performance WCB is doing.

I will be attending the meeting and if you would like to join me I would be pleased to see you.

ALBERTAN'S HAVE VOTED

6/5/2015

"Compassion is the basis of all morality." Arthur Schopenhauer.

This my belief as an advocate for injured workers.

I believe that the government with compassion of the people will lead us to prosperity, great health and education.

Alberta has the tools and now we have the politicians to consider the needs of the people they represent.

A change in the Alberta political world is exciting. I can see that it will be positive for workers and the labor force.

I think we will see slow and steady changes. I am so confident that any decisions made with the NDP's will be keeping the priority Albertan's needs first.

One thing I know is that Rachel Notley and the NDP's will NOT be stealing, lying, cheating, crossing the floor or resigning.

Honest leadership is what we need to stabilize the province

WCB will again be my focus to lobby for change this will remain my priority.

Now when I receive calls on why the government has not made changes my answer will be give it time.

DAY OF MOURNING

1/5/2015

The day of morning was April 28, 2015. There were 169 men and women that died from workplace injuries in Alberta this year. WCB does not tell you that not all families will receive $92000.00 as a lump sum payment for the death.

The policy states that the non economic loss payment (NELP) is to compensate the worker for the impact the injury has on
the worker’s life outside the workplace. Therefore, the
worker is not eligible for a NELP when there is an
immediate fatality. For this policy, “immediate fatality” is
defined as death within 30 calendar days of the date of the
work-related accident. The 30 calendar days include the
date of accident. If, however, death is not immediate and it is clear the worker has or will have a permanent clinical impairment if he or she lives, the worker is eligible for a non economic loss payment (NELP).

TIME FOR CHANGE VOTE NDP

1/5/2015

Only a few days left to make the change. The change is in our hands. Do Albertans remember "Look in the Mirror" Wildrose members abandoning their party. Albertans are now going through job loss because of oilfield cutbacks. We are going through Government crisis. The Progressive Conservatives blame Albertans and do not look in the mirror. For 44 years they have not looked in the mirror. They have not learnt from history and history repeats its self.

Change history and do not ask me why the Government has not made changes at WCB my answer will be who did you vote for?
