A new study led by #TemertyMed Prof. @MinaMadanMD found while that the health care system delivers high quality care, disparities remain between men and women when it comes to heart attack care. - @sunnybrook https://t.co/J52QXpEp8b
Indigenous folks in 28 communities across Canada still have to boil their water to make it safe to drink. People really need to ask themselves why everyone in Canada doesn't have access to safe, clean drinking water.
Today, we honour the children who never returned home, Survivors of residential schools, their families, and communities.
We reflect on our collective history of colonialism and genocide.
Today is a reminder of the harm caused and the work to be done.
#TruthAndReconciliation
If Canada truly cares, we’ll do more than wear an orange shirt for a day. We’ll take action to end the ongoing genocide of Indigenous Peoples. We’ll act on #TruthAndReconciliation on every day and in every way.
Today is National Truth and Reconciliation Day.
Our purpose on this day of #TruthAndReconciliation is to honour all of the Survivors, children, families & communities impacted by the Residential School System.
How do we truly honour them?
Through action & not words alone.(1/3)

Backstory below, in case anyone needs an example of why insurance companies' overinvolvement in treatment decisions is morally and pragmatically challenging.
My responsibility is to the patient. Theirs is to shareholders or private equity.

France’s longest river, the Loire, is running dry due to a 'historic drought'. More than 100 towns don't have access to drinking water. The Loire is also the source of cooling water for 12 nuclear power plants.
How many more 'historic events' before we #ActOnClimate?

Dear brothers and sisters of #Canada, I come among you to meet the indigenous peoples. I hope, with God's grace, that my penitential pilgrimage might contribute to the journey of reconciliation already undertaken. Please accompany me with #prayer.

Oceans needs you this #WorldWaterDay. 17.6 billion pounds of plastic enters the ocean every year, wreaking havoc on marine life and ecosystems.
