Former head of AHS says she faced campaign of intimidation since lawsuit against Alberta government

January 8, 2026

The former head of Alberta Health Services says she has been subject to a campaign of intimidation since she launched a wrongful-dismissal lawsuit against the provincial government last year, and she alleges the same individuals accused of harassing a potential witness in the case have been targeting her.

Speaking publicly about the alleged harassment campaign for the first time, former AHS chief executive officer Athana Mentzelopoulos said David Wallace – a self-described former political fixer who hosts a podcast called The Political Dark Arts Report – has repeatedly attacked her reputation, called her “disgusting names” and said people “were coming to my house.”
