Holy smokes. A government journalist suggests that Trudeau's tax hikes on doctors will drive them out of the country. The Liberal cabinet minister doesn't disagree, but says they'll just import foreign doctors and give them credentials.

Retaining practicing Canadian physicians is vital. The answer to Mr. Cochrane's question is shocking.

Trudeau dismisses plea from doctors to reconsider capital gains tax change. 'We are asking the most successful in this country to do a little bit more,' Trudeau said. https://t.co/vO6KzCzAfF #cdnpoli Find out more at https://t.co/xofn4ZIXij

We can’t practice as physicians after medical school without residency - this facade of a solution does nothing to increase the number of physicians without more residency spots

“I’ve been an ER doctor for 39 years, and my department has never been this close to collapse. We’re not alone.” Dr. Alan Drummond (@alandrummond2) takes us inside Canada’s ER crisis.

Over 76% of @ornge trauma scene calls are cancelled because the patient doesn't meet the Field Trauma Triage Standard, yet over 16% of those patients are still ultimately transported to a trauma centre. This causes over a 4 hour delay on average https://t.co/gaiQPcxyvq

We keep hearing how our healthcare system is collapsing (which it is). But that does nothing to improve our understanding. Let’s use a hypothetical emergency department visit to highlight the disaster that is happening every day around the country. Here’s a thread 🧵:

Is investing just a constant struggle between the regret of buying too much and the regret of not buying enough

We are so disheartened to see protests outside hospitals today. Hospitals are supposed to be safe zones for the staff working there and the patients seeking care.

Not sure if this happens to anyone else on #MedTwitter, but certain people will message me around August-September to “catch up” & “see how I’m doing”, but after a few messages, will always – without fail – shift to asking me to edit their med apps… it’s clockwork at this point.
