Thanks @OntariosDoctors for highlighting the catastrophic physician shortage unfolding in the North.
Travelling next week to Red Lake to help out the 2.25 full-time MDs covering the 4000+ patients in town.
We need a plan for the North.
Dr. @Dannica_Switzer is a physician travelling to rural and northern hospitals to help amidst a growing physician shortage. However, these temporary solutions do not resolve the deeper structural issues in our health-care system.

The people’s hero, a very soaking wet Steelers fan wearing a Derek Watt jersey who had been whipping up the crowd in the downpour, is being escorted from his seat by security. Fans are booing security and cheering for him as he exits.

Ted Nolan remembers being young and asking his mother why she never taught them to speak Ojibwe, and how she said the residential schools would beat those who spoke the language, or even nail their tongues to a board. He remembers she cried.
Nolan: “When people say ‘Just get over it,’ I mean, how the heck do you just get over that? It’s going to take a little while. It’s going to take a lot of patience.”
A lovely profile of a wonderful man.

Imagine if the Steelers OTs didn't get called for holding at really important moments

Broderick Jones might be having one of the worst drives for a Steelers OT maybe ever.

Can we once and for all dispense with this tedious "But he always took the bins out and said hello" commentary, as if there was a contradiction here that needed explaining.
Violent men ARE "nice guys".
They're nice to everyone but the women they abuse. That's the whole point.

Today I learned more about the Danish 🇩🇰specialist referral system. It was a system so logical and patient-centered, it made me want to cry
Here is some of what I learned 🧵

The way men act scared of dating women lest they get accused with "false rape" charges, they should definitely learn this from Rock n make this norm everywhere.
But no, they'll whine about the "death of romance" in asking for consent.

Hey, #Guelph! We need your help to keep up with this storm! Please avoid driving if possible, for your safety and so our snow plows can clear the roads. Transit is still operating but are seeing delays due to weather conditions.
