Since Amanda Gorman's poem 'The Hill We Climb' is now being deemed too 'controversial' for Florida elementary schools, why don't we all take 5 min and actually listen to her words, delivered from the Capitol at Pres. Joe Biden's 2021 inauguration

Impressive findings published by @NavPersaud, Michael Bedard, @drandrewb showing that eliminating out-of-pocket medication costs for patients can cut total spending on health by a median of $1641 per year. https://t.co/shS7csvetF #pharmacare #prevention

It was a pleasure to take part in this day of mentorship. Angelique exemplifies a bright future for Canadian leadership & I wish her luck as her career kicks off. Here’s a look at our day together and what it’s like to be the CEO of @CanadasLifeline

I recently met @UOttawa student, Angelique through @OdgersBerndtson’s @CEOx1Day program. As a selected finalist in this program Angelique shadowed me for one workday to learn more about my role and what it’s like to lead Canadian Blood Services.

For today’s ‘Milestone Monday’ we’re celebrating Bruce, who recently hit donation number 300!

Bruce was kind enough to share his photo and story with us in the hopes that he would inspire even one person to donate for the first time.

[Carson Tharris @carsontharris]

I am glad to be back @CanadasLifeline donating blood 🩸.

September 12 marks the first day I am eligible to donate after meeting my husband almost 18 years ago.

Thank you to everyone who worked to overturn the ban on donations from gay men 🏳️‍🌈.

Let's set the record straight! I didn't eat all the 🍕 as that promo ended LAST Friday! I did get a decent bleed time of 17.39ml/min. Neil is ✅, it would be awesome if more YQL peeps donated plasma! ⁦@neillangevin⁩ ⁦@gt_racer_⁩ ⁦@officebrian⁩ ⁦@Bouletbe⁩

Sending condolences and thoughts to those most closely impacted by this horrible event.

[Canadian Blood Services @CanadasLifeline]

Our thoughts are with the loved ones of those who lost their lives or were injured during Sunday’s attacks at James Smith Cree Nation, Weldon & surrounding area in #Saskatchewan. Our flags will be flown at half-mast. Thank you to the first responders.

[Graham Sher (he/him) @GrahamSher]

Cord blood donation is another way to be part of Canada’s Lifeline. The lifesaving stem cells found in cord blood can treat over 80 diseases and disorders. Expecting a child in one of our four collection cities? Consider registering to donate here: https://t.co/SXBHgD0dgI

[Graham Sher (he/him) @GrahamSher]

July is #CordBloodAwareness Month. We’re thankful to all those who donated their baby’s cord blood. Since inception, over 40,000 cord blood units have been collected by @CanadasLifeline.

[Graham Sher (he/him) @GrahamSher]

If you’re not already part of Canada’s stem cell registry, please consider joining – you could save a life. Just ask @DLeBlancNB. He was given, in his own words, “a second life” thanks to the generosity of this young man from Germany. What a great story. https://t.co/TWjpZ5fbtp
