Law Society of Alberta hearing into former health minister Tyler Shandro continues

CALGARY, AB – A Law Society of Alberta hearing into allegations that a former Alberta cabinet minister broke the lawyers’ code of conduct is continuing today, June 12, 2023.

Tyler Shandro, a lawyer who was defeated in last month’s provincial election, had three complaints against him from his time as health minister early in the COVID-19 pandemic.

The hearing started in January, but needed to add days to finish it.

A Calgary doctor, who had posted a photo on social media of Shandro with a caption related to privatizing health care, has told the hearing he received a visit to his home from the minister and his wife in March 2020.
