For those interested in the state of the coronial service, the Chief Coroner's report considers what has been achieved in the past decade. Whilst there is no surprise in noting that the service is under resourced and delays are common, there have been positives, such as the introduction of the area coroner, greater consistency across areas, and improved technology. It is worth a read to learn more about progress made since the implementation of the Coroners and Justice Act 2009.

This train indeed has the potential to be a runaway. Already $1 billion spent and no track laid. The budget they are trying to work toward is pre-Covid/pre-inflation. No other major capital project has stayed within a pre-Covid budget (think Trans Mountain).
Taxpayers need to watch this carefully. It is high risk (downtown tunnels in a flood zone). Not a time to be apathetic.
And there is a better way- they could likely construct a surface line within the original budget from Downtown to the South Hospital, serve more Calgarians and actually take cars off the road.
The ‘independent’ Green Line Board must ensure minimal cost overruns. Their recommendations to Council in June should be no underground tunnels and more guaranteed riders from communities around the South Health Campus and Seton. Meet the Green Line Board at: https://lnkd.in/gVhecphK

Up until now, public sector reform and improvement has been attempted countless times, but they have been unable to deflect the trajectory that has created increased costs and rising demands.
There are a plethora of reports and thoughts from different people recently, on the nature of public sector reform. However, many of them only partiality understand the public sector as a whole system it its own right. Central government imposition and leadership, pay disputes, targets, principles that guide decision-making and the design of services, etc.
According to the systemic analysis that has occurred in working within the NHS and social care, the learning is clear. The most impactful barrier of all is the systemic embracing of new public management (NPM). And this report covers all those elements - at last!
And as NPM is key to this, this report is able to reference alternative fundamentals that need to replace it.
- The liberated method is another example of what occurs when NPM is replaced.
- 'Locality by default' demonstrates that local decision-making is the only way complexity can be understood and dealt with.
Personally I would have included that fact that 'digital by default' is a NPM child, and its popularity is simply another avenue that issuing tried.
I would have also included the fact that John Seddon has been working with alternatives to NPM for over two decades, he invented the liberated method, and had put much effort into highlighting much of the findings in this report in his work and writing.
Now, please, can decision-makers take the effort to understand the nature of this report and the underlying paradigm that it represents. Please have the same courage that Margaret Thatcher has when she created NPM, and replace it. Please pay attention to those of us that know how to change this...
And the biggest thanks to Ben Glover

Indoor air quality parameters differ from outdoor conditions due to various factors such as building materials, household products, and human activities like cooking and cleaning, which can lead to higher concentrations of pollutants indoors. Addressing indoor air quality is crucial because we spend the majority of our time indoors, where we are continuously exposed to indoor pollutants. Additionally, the lack of ventilation and air circulation indoors can exacerbate indoor air pollution. Given that individuals take 12 to 18 breaths per minute indoors, without proper monitoring of indoor air quality, there is a heightened risk of respiratory issues and other health concerns. Therefore, addressing indoor air quality is paramount to safeguarding human health and well-being.
