Critics, including longtime doctor Dr. Raffath Sayeed and health advisory council head Paul Richer, argue the full report, funded by taxpayers, is essential to fix systemic gaps and that the government’s secrecy undermines public trust. While Saskatoon officials cite confidentiality concerns and Alberta remains silent, advocates insist transparency is non-negotiable in a publicly funded system. Despite some signs of progress — like a new dialysis unit — frustration remains high, as residents fear they’ve been shortchanged for over a decade.
