Auditor general slams Alberta’s handling of DynaLife, says taxpayers lost over $100M
A report from Alberta's auditor general will be made public Wednesday, examining the failed implementation of lab services provider DynaLIFE.
Updated Nov 20, 2025 7:44 am.
"Among the findings was a lack of due diligence in the transfer of services, poor risk assessment by AHS, and the decision to proceed despite knowing the main objective of saving money was unlikely to be achieved.
The report points to then-health minister Adriana LaGrange as having pressed for the move, with her department accused of undermining AHS in the process.
In the spring of 2022, the Alberta government signed a 15-year contract with DynaLife to fully privatize lab testing services in the province. Less than a year after the transition, the province bought out DynaLife in a multi-million dollar deal that returned the lab contract to Alberta Precision Labs (APL), which is part of AHS."
