    Sorry did you meet this kid or something? There is a massive media blackout on details, so how do you know what his situation is without just stereotyping an entire race of people? Maybe he is from a well to do family? Maybe he is a hardened gang member? How can you comment with such confidence about what boat he is in?


    Wait, is this the guy you are talking about?

    I don’t think a fee would help. People still don’t even comprehend when using 911 is appropriate. I know people that have used it after their car was stolen.......... and people that were “intelligent” on paper to boot.

    Also it is good to differentiate between AHS and the individual care providers working within it. If you are saying an emerg doctor’s first priority isn’t to preserving life then you’re out to lunch. (But I know that isn’t what you’re saying just how some may interpret)

    I don't think a fee would help things. What Calgary lacks is access to doctors in a reasonable amount of time.

    Private doctor's offices are still running mostly on banker's hours. M-F 9-5 closed on weekends and stat holidays. Add to this that most doctors are booking weeks in advance. There are few 24 hour options, or options where you don't need an appointment. The hospital is usually the only option to some people.

    I think that if there were more access points to 24 hour locations scattered through the city, and greater access to doctors outside of the typical 9-5, I think that would remove alot of the pressure and wait times on the Hospital Emergency rooms.

    Having said that, slag the AHS and hospitals all you like and how they handle the emergency rooms, but I will say that every time that I have been involved in a TRUE emergency, the process happens so fast that myself or the person in question is receiving treatment before I can even get a health care card out. It is there when needed.

    Continuing the thread hijack, there are after-hours clinics if your family doctor is part of a PCN. But they kind of hide that information so even people who could access it often don't know about it. I may start a thread about this.

    There should be a fee to call 911 too or at least some way to stop people from using these services on a whim vs when they are truly needed - I know, way easier said then done. And yes, thank you for making sure to differentiate between the AHS fat cats and the actual front line.

    OK, sorry for the

    The only thing I've been critical of in this thread is the justice system
    Seriously man, just put him on ignore like most of us already have and let him fade away into nothingness where he belongs.

    Alberta teen found guilty in shooting of German tourist

    Horst Stewin was shot in the head last year while travelling in Canada with family to celebrate 60th birthday

    The southern Alberta teen accused of shooting a German tourist in the head while driving on a highway west of the city has been found guilty of aggravated assault and recklessly discharging a firearm.

    "I find the Crown has proven [the boy] was the shooter," provincial court Judge George Gaschler said on Friday morning.

    The teen from the Stoney Nakoda First Nation cannot be identified because he was 16 at the time.

    During the trial, Gaschler heard evidence that Horst Stewin and his family were in Alberta to celebrate his 60th birthday in August 2018.

    The family was driving near the Morley rodeo grounds about 55 kilometres west of Calgary when a car full of young people from the nearby Morley reserve pulled up beside the family's SUV.

    The teen opened fire, shooting Stewin in the head and causing the SUV to veer off the highway and crash into a tree.

    During the trial, there was evidence the boy confessed to the shooting to a friend in Facebook messages.

    Other key evidence included the testimony of eyewitnesses — other young people from Morley who were in the same car as the shooter and identified the teen as the one who pulled the trigger.

    "I find that the three witnesses ... each in their own way and each from their own position and perspective identify [the teen] as the shooter," Gaschler wrote in his decision.

    But defence lawyer Balfour Der said he was expecting an acquittal based on those witnesses.

    "I'm actually quite disappointed," said Der after the decision was handed down.

    "I thought there was plenty of reasonable doubt in this case based primarily on the quality of these witnesses the prosecution called. After cross-examination I don't know you could have believed anything they said."

    Stewin survived and was eventually flown back to Germany, where doctors removed eight bullet fragments from his brain.

    The 61-year old has still not fully recovered and will suffer lifelong injuries.

    He is paralyzed on his right side, has trouble speaking and likely will never work again.

    A sentencing hearing will take place in February.

    Der said he is considering an appeal.

    The boy will turn 18 in two weeks. He smiled at two family members, including his grandmother, who were in court Friday for the decision.

    I can't fathom the transcript of the witness accounts. A pile of lies so poorly constructed that only the truth can come through.
    This pestilence virus will walk away from this upon appeal. I gotta stop reading this kind of shit.

    "The judge encouraged the teen to seek out an elder within his community for guidance while serving his community time."

    Really? This necessary? I hope you (and other people) don't genuinely feel this way.

    Gaschler said while the crime was serious, the offender’s conduct was driven by an adult male who provided the youth alcohol and methamphetamines on the day of the shooting.
    Mmmm that's quality mentorship right there.
