Abuse of Power
Island Health Authority is using corruption and cover-up to take away seniors' rights.

The Adult Guardianship Act is often used or abused by authorities to incarcerate individuals.
Here're a sampling of articles covering the story:

Other cases:
It took Debbie three months to find her husband Vern, locked away without trace.
There are more issues of unlawful confinement
Debbie and Vern met in 2009, and they were married in 2012.
Vern had health issues and was hospitalized in January 2023. He was moved from NRGH (Nanaimo Regional General Hospital) to an undisclosed location in May 2023. Island Health refused to inform his wife where he was taken. It took Debbie 3 months to find her husband, who had been moved to the Eagle Park facility in Qualicum Beach. Since Vern was moved, his health has deteriorated rapidly. Debbie has only been allowed very limited visits with her husband. And now she is not allowed to visit Vern at all.
My husband had Alzheimer's and was illegally certified in 2017 and held in the Jubilee while I fought for six months to get him back home. A savvy lawyer finally helped me do that. I don't know you, Trevor, but I do know how you feel. It's a long, draining fight. If you do get Eileen home, things will be harder than they were before all this started, and I hope you will have the support you and Eileen will need. My heart is with you.

This PDF file has the BC Government compensations/salaries. The enormity of this document, and the content within, illustrates the bloated and inefficient state of our system. For Eileen's case I must have spoken to around 100 different government employed workers.
This PDF itemizes how Island Health is using your tax dollars. Note especially the millions spent on lawyers at Norton Fullbright.
