This is misleading for a lot of different reasons.

First of all it’s not all Opthamologists that are calling to opt out of the AMA, the government received a letter from the EPSAA, but that organization does not speak for all Opthamologists.

The EPSAA is a private organization, with many practicing opthamologists not maintaining membership.

While the president of the EPSAA is also the current president of the @Albertadoctors section for opthamology, his role with the EPSAA is separate.

Bold move though...

We still have a lot of questions about the EPSAA, but it is very clear that this is the equivalent of one group of franchise owners of Tim Hortons claiming to represent at Franchise Owners.

They don’t.

This certainly seems to be yet another example of @shandro taking advantage of the general public’s lack of knowledge of how these organizations are structured to generate tension and headlines.

During a pandemic.
