“We are actively doing the work of, evaluating what we can do with that legislation to further protect the public and to improve transparency and accountability,” Manitoba Health Minister Uzoma Asagwara told the CBC, adding he wants the government to take “swift action” to ensure there’s more transparency when chiropractors are disciplined for wrongdoing.
Winnipeg Police Service officers raided Dr. Robert Stitt’s office in December 2024 after receiving a tip from the Manitoba Chiropractors Association about allegedly concealed cameras.
A chiropractor allegedly used sprinklers in the ceilings of treatment rooms to disguise hidden cameras to film female patients undressing, say police.
The doctor allegedly showed the investigator videos that he said would “exonerate himself of any wrongdoing,” according to police information obtained by the outlet.
The organization became aware of the hidden cameras after one of their investigators went to the man’s office to probe a different matter.
