On December 11, 2020, a formerly registered physician Dr. Dennis Modry penned a letter published in the Western Standard to Premier Kenney about the COVID-19 response. The article suggested Dr. Modry is a currently practising physician; however, it’s important to note he is not licensed to practise medicine in Alberta. Dr. Modry’s specialization was in surgery, he does not have expertise in public health.
