Not really sure how this is "confidential" or frankly a surprise. Anyone following health care knows our ERs are in crisis.... But Ontario's ER wait times have gotten worse in the past three years, confidential report shows thestar.com/news/gta/doug-… via @torontostar

Dear Doctors of America: Feeling under siege by politics that undermine science and public health? You’re not alone. Some U.S. physicians are already looking north. Ontario needs 3,500 more doctors, and you’d be welcome here. 🧵👇

It started with my mom immigrating with her daughters & husband to #Canada. Long days of work and helping us through school. Life in Thorncliffe Park. Oshawa. Markham. Now here. I am who I am because of her. One day, my baby will see that she is too. #InternationalWomensDay

My kids and I were out at 0230 to watch #lunareclipse2025. I jury-rigged my binoculars to capture this image. And as we watched in awe, my 13 year old son remarked: “It is so silent in the world right now.” It was beautiful.

During Covid - as a security guard - he transferred the deceased to the morgue, he cleaned rooms and he assisted nurses and orderlies. He worked for seven years. He awaits deportation. Not a great thanks. cbc.ca/news/canada/mo…

I will be more specific: certain members of the press went after my sister when she was a teenager in the most disgusting and perverse way imaginable. When my father expressed his outrage, women in the Liberal caucus demanded that he apologize to those members of the press who

What if healthcare was more convenient— what if physicians were allowed to dispense medications at the point of care? Then patients would no longer have to drive to pharmacies…

Humbled & excited to represent Halton Healthcare at #ICIC25. #integratedcare is a challenge every health system faces. 1000 doctors, nurses, administrators, healthcare reformists and patients. 58 countries. “It is a belief that better is possible and that it begins with us.”

For the past few years, I’ve been studying my life choices to slowly and thoughtfully bring wisdom and clarity to them. I signed up for James Clear’s email listserv. He sent out this comment by investor Rock Buhrman. To all who dedicate their lives to mastery and kindness.

This is devastating. Another entirely preventable death. Please get the #measles #vaccine. “Listen, this is real. This is impactful. And as we have seen this week, (measles) sometimes can lead to death.” #ONhealth #ONpoli nsnews.com/health/infant-…

Day 2 Canadian Anesthesiologists' Society #CASAM2025 keynote: Brad Gushue lists his team’s wins — and then goes deep into their losses esp the 4 World Championships they lost in a row. The lessons learned drive team culture which then drives their success. Also, holding an Olympic gold medal is wild.

Complications of measles — impaired immune system, blindness, deafness, brain inflammation — these can show up 7-10 years after an infection. These babies depend on the protection — herd immunity — their community provides. #VaccinesSaveLives #measles
