Cyrano is back at @ShawTheatre - and they continue their brave tradition of keeping the lead actors name a secret. His name is actually in this ad - points if you can find it.
This morning, Radio Talk Show Host @JohnGormleyShow mocked my identity & the truth telling of Indigenous women, #TwoSpirit folks, & the publicly accountable & investigative work of @gleocbc & @CBCNews in his @CKOMNews segment (18:55-25:25 @ https://t.co/W88gEI2Oo2).
My response:
I come from a family of #survivors.
My grandmother and great grandmother (pictured) survived the residential school system and my mother survived the 60s Scoop.
I exist because each of these life-givers resisted and persisted.
Too many never made it home.

Grateful to my family medicine colleagues for sounding the alarm. Psychiatrists are apparently a rare breed (particularly when you get into subspecialty areas like child and geriatrics). But there are a few actions that could be done now that could help:

Humbled by @MMandryk's kind words and so grateful for his nuanced focus on how mental health, esp. in youth, has been impacted by the pandemic.
Such an important and sensitive topic leaves no room for sensationalist headlines or self-serving politics.

An abridged thread on #COVIDsk written by my wonderful wife on FB (she doesn't tweet):
"I have seen so many posts from my colleagues begging the public to understand what is happening with COVID. At this point I feel like our voices are not being heard, but I have to try anyway"
Many believe we are overreacting, #COVIDsk is just the flu, only the elderly/those with comorbidities die, we can protect the vulnerable, if you survive it you are fine, your activities can continue safely, and it will not end up being as bad as we are making it out to be. 1/10
@RhodeJim@hinz_tamara@PremierScottMoe Is it not apparent to you how blatantly sexist and condescending this reply is? Or was that intentional?? And to hashtag #mentalhealth while lecturing an accomplished psychiatriast? Hope you realize this, back it off, and apologize.
In a release, the SHA says all but three of its ICU beds in Saskatoon are full
It forecasts it will need to create about "200 more beds for COVID patients than currently exist in all the hospitals outside of Saskatoon and Regina combined" #skpoli
