I've never met, but I heard so much about my late & amazing Aunt Dolly. Thanks @PEIMuseum @DougCurrie for sharing her achievements, kindness & her persistence to become a nurse. See thread. #BlackHistoryMonth  #BlackHistoryMonth2022 #pei #cdnhealth #antiracism fyi @canadanurses

Dear @Josie_Osborne & @Dave_Eby kindly share the “publicly released” health review findings that you/your government promised 18 months ago. We should have seen them in “early 2026.”

Still waiting to see the findings of the extensive & expensive health authority review. “The Province anticipates that the health authority review for @PHSAofBC & the regional health authorities, will be complete in early 2026. Its findings and recommended changes will be released publicly.” https://t.co/Igjla5Xnz5

Well stated @drpaulwinston & congratulations @LDoerkson. Time to restore some health to British Columbian’s including the health of health professionals. #bcpoli #bchealth

[Paul Winston MD - Restoring Movement is the goal. @drpaulwinston]

Congratulations @LDoerkson 20 years in BC healthcare. Please give leadership/control back to the health authorities and hospitals. Give doctors the ability to fund teams. Get rid of special authority and audit for abuse. Diagnostic accreditation is a BC pit of delayed care.

As promised during the campaign, government is committed to ensuring health authorities are functioning as effectively and efficiently as possible. Today, we announced we are starting with a review of the PHSA:

In 2 days a decision will be made on whether there will be an indefinite pause to MAiD for mental illness. The AMAD committee chose not to hear witnesses with lived experience but their voices need to be heard. Thank you to these individuals for sharing your story.

Granville St is BUSY, festive, fun, dancing, music, cheering & occasionally airborne (the last not advised). Have fun & take care of each other too. Congrats Morocco. Well done Canada too. Thx all public safety peeps too. #fifa #fifavancouver #canada #vancouver #vpd #rcmp @@FIFAWorldCupIFAWorldCup

[Andrew Longhurst @alonghurst.bsky.social @a_longhurst]

As pressures mount on nurses’ workloads, the government is forcing them to begin strike actions. Strategic funding to improve the system would resolve the issue.

We need a new position in B.C. — Minister of Health.

Someone responsible for managing the health system and accountable for its performance.

Very different from what we have now: Minister of Health Public Relations.

Chemically unbalanced. Our strata pool area has been unsafe for years, has yours? Water chemistry off & high temp. that harms metal, our lungs/skin & eyes. Why doesn’t @VCHhealthcare MoH @Josie_Osborne enforce #publichealth orders for safe pools? #strata #bcpoli #vch #vancouver

BC’s Health Authority Review began in March 2025 with @PHSAofBC & “Its findings & recommended changes will be released publicly,” in early 2026, said @Josie_Osbourne. It’s nearly July & we’re still waiting… please give us the report now. #phsa #publichealth #heatdome & #bcpoli

@jodyvance This @ParksBoard & @CityofVancouver truly hate swimmers. Lack of pools, lack of common sense, & inaction on water quality/beach safety impacts everyone’s health & enjoyment & cooling down, not to mention important life skill for kids! #vanpoli #swimming #vancouver #publichealth

Beach water quality very high for many Vancouver Beaches already? 4600 ppm (23x recommended max.) for #ThirdBeach! Not great for anyone
#FIFA visitors. Likely a sewage spill/boat IMHO. @VCHhealthcare & @MetroVancouver pls retest & post results asap! #vanpoli #swimming #vch

“Sea don’t” vs sea doo. Hoping the @ParkBoard votes to protect beaches, swimmers & wildlife from sea doo/jet skis & boats . No white swim buoys here. 311 complaints never answered. Forgotten beach of management. #vanpoli #parkboard https://t.co/CbCAm9gOxw No replies ever.

[Paul Winston MD - Restoring Movement is the goal. @drpaulwinston]

In BC nearly all of the medical research money goes to the 25% of the population in one geographic location. I am told I am out of line for speaking up. Health Equity becomes virtue signalling when where you live determines if you can be researched.
