B.C. investigates reports of health officials betting on Indigenous patients’ blood alcohol level

CA, 20 Jun 2020
The province is investigating reports of health-care staff playing a racist game betting on the blood alcohol level of mainly Indigenous patients they were treating, according to Health Minister Adrian Dix.

If true, Dix says it is intolerable, unacceptable and racist.

He has asked B.C.'s former children advocate, Mary Ellen Turpel-Lafond, to investigate the allegations.

Dix didn't say which hospital or hospitals were involved.
