NEW - A report by Toronto City Staff finds removing bike lanes, as the Ford government intends to do along three stretches', would cost $48 million and cause "Increased travel times for drivers" while they are being removed. https://t.co/uJuB4vuCqZ

BREAKING: This is FAR faster and ham-fisted than even I would have imagined! Spending a LOT of public money and disrupting traffic in order to weaken Toronto, hurt small business, endanger lives, make traffic worse, remove choice, increase emissions & increase public costs!

The Lancet: “The targeting of maternity hospitals and the blockade that limits essential medical supplies, such as anaesthetics and maternity kits, from entering Gaza have turned pregnancy into a life-threatening condition for thousands of women.”

To put the bike lane debate in Toronto in perspective, more people commute by bike each day in Toronto than the entire population that lives in Barrie, Ontario. Or Kingston. Or Guelph. Or Sudbury.

It's pretty rich that the Province wants to tell us how to get around our own city. If they don't like sitting in traffic when they get here, they should go fix regional transit. That is their mess - and the true culprit for congestion in the city.

Anyone who understands physics knows that cyclists are part of the solution.

Happy to share our recent work on Long-term Outcomes Following Non-operative Management of Acute Appendicitis e-pub today @AnnalsofSurgery

13,200 non-op, cumulative incidence of re-presentation or intervention was 33% at 1-year and 36% at 5-years

IMPORTANT: The Ford Government in Ontario has been promoting car-dependent suburban sprawl while undermining public transit, biking and walking, so not surprisingly, they’re fuelling a lot more car congestion. Now they need a scapegoat so are trying to blame it on bike-lanes. 1/

[AnotherICUdoc @AnotherICUdoc]

Interventions like virtual consultations may allow for assessment by clinicians with trauma expertise while allowing patients to remain in their home communities.

[AnotherICUdoc @AnotherICUdoc]

Very excited to see the final paper from my PhD thesis @ihpmeuoft in @JAMANetworkOpen https://t.co/gCuJGlX4dO Could not have gotten here without the support of amazing mentors & colleagues @Barbara_Haas_ @MattGuttmanMD @damon_scales #Avery_Nathens So what did we do?

[AnotherICUdoc @AnotherICUdoc]

Therefore, ongoing initiatives to reduce unnecessary transfers likely present an opportunity for significant savings and to optimize limited trauma centre capacity.
