I had the honour of judging The Fiddlehead's creative nonfiction contest this year. The winning entry, "The Promised Language" by journalist @DafnaIzenberg, is fantastic and worth seeking out. https://t.co/isjZMR03x1

@SPBAAdam Hi Betty Ann-- I'm an editor at Maclean's looking for a writer in Sask. Are you available to DM?

From this profile on Dionne Brand, says the author: “I think of language like a material, like a metal or a mineral, that I’ve been able to and lucky to have to shape what I am seeing.”

One person we interviewed for this @HealthyDebate story suggested that not having health insurance "is in itself almost a medical condition," adding another layer of health vulnerability. @ngozifaith @SickleSurvivor

An eminently thoughtful op-ed by @SheilaCoteMeek over @HealthyDebate on how land acknowledgements can help move health care toward reconciliation and what needs to be behind them to give them meaning.

@SeemaMarwahaMD shares the story of the day she discovered her compassion had gone missing. Lovely writing--raw and honest. What it's like to witness a patient die and what it's like to turn the feelings off.

Excellent synthesis by @MorganPCampbell of the IAAF's ongoing efforts to restrict female athletes with "too high" levels of naturally produced testosterone. Why would anyone who cares about sports not want Caster Semanya to compete just the way she is?

Inspiring stuff in this @HealthyDebate story by me & @maureentaylor31: the Wellesley Hospital's 1990s revolution & several super-smart voices on how to build a culture of inclusion in health care. We have a ways to go, but it's not that complicated.

I'm looking to interview people who visit walk-in clinics rather than a family doctor. If you're interested in speaking to me about this, please email me at [email protected]

PSWs do the work no one else in the health care system has time for. Are they paid enough? Should they be regulated? We looked at the state of this critical sector in Ontario @HealthyDebate @maureentaylor31
