Parents want to make the best health decisions for their kids, and they’re calling on all levels of government for more accessible, timely and evidence-based child health information they can trust.

Another key takeaway: health leaders must practice compassion for others that they lead, but also critical towards themselves. @NHLC_CNLS #NHLC2022 @DeeTaylor2017 @doranwalker @CHLNet1

I learned long ago that not everyone can be a leader. Even when they seem to have the skills & experience, some will get seduced by power. They don’t listen & are blind to everything around them. But everyone can build #leadershipcompetencies ie.#selfawareness #empathy #humility

Oh hey, the Alberta Government did one of those 4:52 p.m. news releases. They're cancelling 11 recently issued coal leases. That might sound significant but the affected areas are very small additions (black) to much larger existing coal leases (grey) in the area. #ableg

A note on physical distancing. It has been nearly a week since strict measures for social distancing and mass gatherings were put in place. While I do encourage people to go for walks and enjoy being outside, it is EXTREMELY important to maintain distance. #COVID19AB (1/3)

Twitter is socially useful in a crisis. Socially harmful in an election.

This is a trying time but it is not the time to panic, be of anger or inconsiderate. This is a time for all to have love compassion for all. To take of one another as one. In the end we are all family.

My last event that I hosted for Emerging Health Leaders Edmonton as Director of Mentorship before leaving to Vancouver. So proud!
Our #WCW goes out to Dr. Deena Hinshaw, Alberta's Chief Medical Officer who's been keeping us all updated throughout #COVID19. She's also a proud mentor at our current Mentorship Program! We are very proud of her leadership. Thanks Dr. Hinshaw! #HealthcareHeroes #healthleadership

More dancers are joining in the porch-front jingle dress craze this week to share healing and joy. Skye, from the Navajo Nation in Arizona, wanted to be part of the movement during the pandemic. She says it’s important to share her heritage with everyone. Video: Angel Thompson

If you only read one thing on the Nike Vaporfly debate, make it this from @sweatscience. Balanced, informative and a great response to people who just bellow: "Cheats!" Particularly like this imagined conversation. outsideonline.com/2408971/ni…
