Wolsey's past dealings with the authorities of the two countries included an audit of over-completion
Charges and investigations for drug abuse of heroin, including economic rebates for patients.

Since March 2010, he has found himself involved in a civil dispute over 10 former tenants of two dilapidated hotels he used to own in downtown Vancouver East.
Wolsey told the presiding judge that he owed more than $18,000 to the tenants and that he was too broke.
However, on behalf of the tenant's hub Legal Society, evidence is expected to be submitted in court on Monday to support its position that Wolsey has assets and income to pay outstanding payments from former tenants.
The province traces the rumors back to IHS pharmacy in the industrial zone, where former business partner pharmacist Ian sands of Wolsey

At the same time, they said they did not actively investigate any current activities in Wolsey.
But they encourage anyone who has complained about him to come forward.
"We're interested in making sure, sir.
Wolsey did not engage in unauthorized practice, "said Mykle Ludvigsen, director of public accountability and engagement at the Faculty of pharmacists.
"This is something we will take anyone very seriously, whether they have a little history or not.
We would strongly urge people to come forward if they had information.
So what exactly is Wolsey busy?
One of his former colleagues may best answer the question.
According to Kevin wenmeister, there are very few people who can approach George Walsey.
Wenmester, 46, said he was one of the few.
Their relationship began at the end of 2010, when wenmeister, who participated in the provincial heroin maintenance program, said that he and his girlfriend left the Eastern District of the city center and moved to one of the houses that was run step by step, rehabilitation Society registered in Surrey.
Weinmeister said Wolsey, a pharmacist, provided residents of the house with daily doses and prescriptions for heroin.
"It was stipulated from the beginning that he would pass," Weinmeister said . ".
"Because I have my own pharmacy, I am trying to fight it.
I didn't know what was going on.
But I will know after a while.
"Step-by-step operator Debbie Johnson said they ended their professional relationship with Wolsey" some time ago.
"We don't use him anymore," she said . "
"We haven't had it for a while.
Wenmester said he eventually became a house manager.
Over time, he began to develop relationships with Wolsey and began to work for him.
Small jobs have turned into bigger projects, such as cleaning up volsey's property in Lanley and renovating the apartment of volsey's son.
By the summer of 2013, Weinmeister, who had left step by step, began a conversation with Wolsey about running a rehabilitation facility allegedly linked to the former pharmacist.
According to Weinmeister, Wolsey is directly involved in the impact housing association, which in a booklet calls itself a "transitional mental health housing" with at least three under its name
Weinmeister took over a house at 14000-
Block 72.
"I found 72 houses (72nd Avenue)
I was empty, and George and I spoke on the phone and said, "What stopped me from opening my own house ? "?
Said wenmester.
"You pay the rent, I will go to the customer, I will bring them to you (
For prescription).
This is a good idea, he said.
The next day he called me and said, "Hey, 72 houses are ready, why don't you bring that one over ? "?
Winmett and his girlfriend moved into the house in December 2013.
According to Weinmeister, according to arrangements with Wolsey, their responsibility includes finding residents, getting them to take medication and sending them to IHS pharmacy to fill out the script.
In return, they will be allowed to live in rent-
Free of charge, as payment, to retain the rent of $450 per month in the form of a welfare check provided by the resident.
He understood that the rent of the owner would be borne by Wolsey.
"It should be a deal. [But I]
Wenmester says he admits he wants a slice of all the income he sees.
"George seems to be greedy and wants to keep everything.
Our dispute began at that time.
As evidence of arrangement and subsequent decline
Weinmeister presented a provincial text exchange between him and Wolsey and a brochure that affected the housing association.
One of the text messages identified as Wolsey mentioned the growth of his "mental health business.
The other part, which is said to be Wolsey's, said, "just let the customer take the medicine . ".
According to this brochure, the impact housing association is a "member" of the United States"S. -
National Association for Mental Illness (NAMI)
This was refuted by the organization at the time of provincial contact.
"I checked with our director of federal affairs that he is a housing specialist for our police team.
He never heard of them, "Bob Karola, NAMI's director of media relations, said in an email.
"NAMI does not recognize any products or services in terms of policy.
"The website address on the brochure is no longer active and the phone number goes directly to the answering machine.
Weinmeister also provided the province with a copy of the lease agreement signed by IHS residents and took the province to visit the house on 72 Avenue.
"There is no recovery without service," said Weinmeister, who affects the housing association . ".
"This is not a recovery.
This is a flop house.
"There is also no conclusive written evidence to link Wolsey with IHS pharmacy, the impact housing association and its property, or Weinmeister's claim that Wolsey has other recycled homes provided through IHS pharmacy, as well as with regard to heroin and other prescriptionsAs for the 5 a. m.
Weinmeister suspects this has to do with prescription drug drops from different rehabilitation institutions.
He said the white van picked up residents from different rehabilitation centers and took them to IHS to buy daily heroin and other prescriptions.
"He convinced people to arrange things in their pockets and use them," Weinmeister said . ".
"He's smart enough to know how to get around the law.
But if someone is willing to investigate properly . . . . . . What I only found through the internet . . . . . . It will surprise me.
