Another member of the Alberta Health Services board of
directors has resigned.
Sources say Dr. Andreas Laupacis tendered his
resignation to Alberta Health Minister Gene Zwozdesky.
He is the fourth member of the board to resign since former CEO
Stephen Duckett was let go last week.
Officials with Alberta Health Services and the Alberta government
were not immediately available for comment.
Laupacis is an executive at St. Michael's Hospital in Toronto and
was a former member of the Alberta Heritage Foundation for Medical
Research.
Last week Tony Franceschini, Gord Bontje
and Linda Hohol all stepped down from the board to
protest Duckett's removal from the job.
