Dr. Penny Ballem established B.C. 's one provincial and five regional health authorities under the previous Liberal government.

She presided over the establishment of the health authorities, but quit the Liberal government in 2006 in protest over interference from the office of then Premier Gordon Campbell .

The New Democrats only discovered the problem of administrative bureaucracy in health care on the eve of the last election.

Eby government prefers to conduct the public’s business in a secretive way.

Not a good beginning in terms of openness and transparency for the NDP drive to reduce administrative costs in the health regions.

Osborne: “It was a board decision,” she told me.
