Some thoughts on the #HealthCareCrisis in Ontario (and across Canada).
23 years as an EM physician and I have never seen things as bad as they have been for the last several months...with no sign of letting up
ZERO nursing staff showed up at this ICU. They had to borrow nurses from partner hospital and via nursing agencies. We are in deep trouble Ontario. You might not understand now but I promise you, you will understand when you need a nurse. Make sure your vote is not for Doug Ford.
Teachers,
RT this if it is impossible for you get your grading, planning, parent/guardian outreach and all other additional requirements (on top teaching) completed during your contractual hours.
Just curious.
An amazing morning spent with unlearn and our Advocates For Equity. Some ideas that stuck: stop and check your blindspots, ask yourself why do you think the way you think, find stories you can 'action'...lots of buzz at MMR!
#UPDATE: “We understand from messages received that some are upset by being woken up, but this proves the importance of these alerts.”
Police say someone saw the Amber Alert and then saw the described vehicle in a parking lot and called police.

Today was the final day of #SPH4U Grade 12 Physics @AldershotSchool On a day traditionally reserved for exams, we decided to have some fun instead. Students have been preparing their physics-themed Minute to Win It games all week in preparation for today’s showcase… 1/n
Not someone I know personally, but the family of someone I went to high school with. I am literally sick to my stomach reading this post. The family has asked for this information to be shared widely. @Travisdhanraj@ColinDMello@CP24
It's almost shift change and my ICU colleague just messaged me that they are 7 nurses short. No replacements found. 3 nurses have been guilt-tripped into working 16hrs. The hospital has decided to incentivize all staff with a time and half pay, still, no nurses. It's really bad.
Kids don't plan to come to school to get into trouble. Behaviour is a form of communication and quite often - the reason for it will make you sad, not angry.
Could two followers please copy and re-post this tweet? I'm trying to demonstrate that someone is always there, especially at this time of year. Just two. Any two. Copy, not retweet.
