I haven't heard about him either, but you have to wonder how important patient care is rather than climbing the ladder to him with so many different jobs in so many different places. Nova Scotia, Toronto and Vancouver are not next door to each other, and why was Auss so attractive to him????

It is just that we had one of your health care big wigs come over here to take over running the Royal Brisbane Hospital and, well, he managed to make a bit of a pig's ear of his first couple of weeks by sacking the Director of Nursing without cause.

I have googled this about him

And, well we are all curious about him. He has this glowing reputation apparently but then walks in and on 30 seconds interaction sacks someone - seems strange. Does anyone have any better/more information about this chap?
This is NOT repeat NOT me having a "go" at Canadians (hence I have edited this post) but a plea for more information. What are we in for here? Is he a real health care hero with some good ideas for reform or just a modern version of Nero singing his own praises while Rome burns around him.
