The former CEO of Shared Health saw his pay exceed $600,000 last year — a nearly 83 per cent increase from the prior year — despite only working for four months before his unexpected departure from the provincial health-care organization.
Adam Topp earned $603,604 in 2023, according to recent compensation disclosures.
The same documents reveal some executives also claimed in the range of $30,000 to $60,000 in extra compensation, attributed at least partially to them collecting retroactive pay increases to match the raises of unionized health-care staff.
Topp led Shared Health for less than four months in 2023 before the organization described his departure as a “resignation” in a brief, two-sentence statement to media near the end of April. The announcement of his replacement — Lanette Siragusa, one of the public faces of Manitoba’s COVID-19 response — was made the next day.
This is the kind of bullshit that neoliberalism gets you. I can guarantee you could find someone willing to do the job for 80k who’d do a markedly better job.
