Public education supported my mother to become a lawyer & me to become a physician. Without it we’d still be at a food bank. What an absolute nightmare of an idea that clearly came from the privileged wealthy brain of private school kid @Sflecce. #negotiatedontlegislate

In my content, I make fun of attendings all the time. Is my job as a private practice ophthalmologist easier than a trauma surgeon? Absolutely. I mean come on, I don’t work when it’s nighttime. But I never take those types of shots at residents because residency is fucking hard.

While Dr. Halsted was a brilliant surgeon, this system of training is troubling. Doctors are not superhuman. When we take away something as essential to our humanity as sleep, everything erodes: Our ability to think. Our mental & physical health. And sadly, even our empathy.

Good to see Health Canada moving quickly to approve the booster dose today. This is your ticket to avoiding a lot of misery this fall/winter. Remember: a vaccine is always better than getting the actual infection, though many here will try to convince you otherwise.

As Canadians face poor access to ER care due to underfunded hospital capacity and excess mortality due to delays to admission, it’s critical to stay up to date on vaccination and avoid hospitalization. ⁦@Megan_Ogilvie⁩ https://t.co/ffpYn0noWR

To be clearer: Vaccines are objectively the single most important scientific advancement in our species’ recent history. They have saved countless millions of lives, and that will project out into billions.

The residents have unionized

If you don’t want to get called out for sexual assault don’t sexually assault anyone. And if you don’t want these things to happen at your institution/meeting then don’t employ/invite sexual assailants.

the average cost of a ticket for this tour is insane we cannot let this be normalized for future tours

@dannyc12taw I thought I was a tough cookie but man I am just a fresh macaroon

So excited for @jrhjus - @Futurpreneur is lucky to have him in their G20 lineup!

Should we close the books and turn on the video games? Great systematic review @VictoriaTurnb12 @westernuUrology

Adjourned our final UWO PARO site meeting tonight - it has been such an honour to be part of this incredible & dedicated team. We’ve successfully pushed for changes to our EMR, secured 2 way ride home post call & lactation spaces for residents. It’s been a great year 🥳

Thrilled to announce I’ll be a Canadian Delegate to the G20 in India! I’ll be at the Young Entrepreneurs Summit in New Delhi in July to advocate for 500,000 young entrepreneurs. #G20YEA brings hundreds of the worlds top young entrepreneurs to catalyze change with G20 leaders

So proud of @jrhjus being selected to represent Canada at the G20 young entrepreneurs summit!

Statistics can never be completely objective. This is not just my opinion. It's a *mathematical* fact. Read on if you want to learn a deep fundamental truth about data and its relationship to the universe we live in.

Honoured to be asked to speak by @CFMSFEMC - thank you for having me and for your vital advocacy work on this topic thats near & dear to my ❤️ #uCMGs #CaRMS

Good doctors can negotiate their contracts. Good doctors can demand to be paid more money. Good doctors can demand verbal terms in writing. Good doctors can carve boundaries btw themselves and their jobs. Good doctors can learn new skills that they weren’t taught in training.
