Ex-CEO of Alberta health authority asks for quick ruling in wrongful dismissal suit
June 10, 2025
The former head of Alberta’s health authority wants a judge to rule on her lawsuit against the provincial government, which she alleges fired her improperly, without the case going to trial.Athana Mentzelopoulos, Alberta Health Services’s former chief executive, on Monday applied for a summary judgment in her dispute with the government. The application, filed in the Court of King’s Bench in Edmonton, alleges the health minister usurped power accorded to AHS directors when she ordered Ms. Mentzelopoulos’s firing in January.
