The AB Teacher Pension War Room🍁

How much did the Mraiche/Marshall network steal from us? "While authorities have not yet declared a specific, finalized dollar figure for the exact net profit pocketed by the network, forensic tracking by the Auditor General and the RCMP centers around hundreds of millions of dollars in public funds distributed through highly inflated, non-competitive pipelines. The specific contract values and individual profit margins currently under audit by authorities provide a clear roadmap of the massive financial scale: The Total Public Contract Value under Probe: Sworn evidence from Athana Mentzelopoulos's wrongful dismissal lawsuit reveals that the public health authority routed over $614 million in total supply, PPE, and service agreements to corporate entities owned by Sam Mraiche, including MHCare Medical and Carver PA Corp. Investigators are currently auditing what percentage of this $614-million pool constituted illegitimate or artificially inflated margins. The Outsized Surgical Multipliers: ASG Heritage Valley Internal AHS cost logs obtained by investigators show that ASG Heritage Valley was billing the government $8,300 per hip replacement procedure, while the baseline public hospital cost for the identical surgery sits at just over $4,000. Authorities believe that these double-rate contract structures allowed the private clinic to clear millions in excessive, taxpayer-funded profits per surgical block. The Turkish Pain Medication Margin: The Auditor General's review into the $70-million emergency contract for Turkish children's acetaminophen discovered a catastrophic loss of value: The province paid out tens of millions of dollars upfront. Out of the initial shipment, only a small fraction was safe or clinically viable for use. The vast majority of the medication sat completely unused and had to be incinerated as hazardous waste, meaning the contractor's massive payout yielded virtually zero public benefit. The 12-Week Land Flip Profit: A separate probe by the Auditor General focuses on direct real estate exploitation. Land titles show a numbered company controlled by Mraiche purchased an Edmonton commercial property for $1.7 million in mid-2024. Exactly 12 weeks later, the company flipped the same property to Alberta Infrastructure for $2 million, walking away with a swift $300,000 taxpayer-funded profit without conducting any upgrades or structural changes. Private Recovery Centre Lease-Back Pipelines: Authorities are tracking a network of decentralized addiction-recovery facilities, spearheaded by Marshall and funded under Minister Williams' multi-million dollar budget. These buildings were purchased by Mraiche-linked companies, like Melewka Homes Ltd, and leased back into the provincial network for as much as $480,000 per year per facility. This structure created a permanent, highly lucrative private rental income pipeline. Because the specialized RCMP anti-corruption unit has escalated its probe into potential money laundering and fraud, forensic accounting teams are actively mapping out shell company bank registries to determine exactly how many millions were siphoned out of these health contracts into the hands of private stakeholders...1/
