After a warm welcome in Bracebridge yesterday, these @thenosm medical students enjoyed a paddle on the Muskoka River. We’re so pleased to see them getting a taste of life in Muskoka as part of their community clerkship with MAHC!

[Hailey O'Grady @HaileyOGrady]

Thank you Bracebridge for the warm welcome! I’m eager to explore & learn in this beautiful community for the months to come!

[99.5 Moose FM @moose995]

Students from @thenosm toured @townbracebridge today with Mayor Rick Maloney and Deputy Mayor Brenda Rhodes.

These students will be working with @MAHCHospitals in Bracebridge and Huntsville.

We'll have more on https://t.co/xO7cOdU9ja tomorrow.

This summer I’m completing my MPH practicum in my hometown at Réseau ACCESS Network.
👇🏼 Check out the latest MPH Practicum Blog post where I share more about my experience and what I’ve learned about drug policy as a public health issue. https://t.co/xpS9xxJ6Qa

This was created by the students at N'kwala School. 🧡 It reads, "They tried to bury us, they didn't know we were seeds that would awaken the world."

On #NationalIndigenousPeoplesDay, a reminder to stop saying “Canada’s Indigenous peoples”. Indigenous peoples were here long before Canada.

But do feel free to talk about Canada’s ownership of: Residential Schools, MMIWG2S, First Nations water advisories & an ongoing genocide.

[Gurratan Singh @GurratanSingh]

An entire family massacred in London, Ontario, simply for existing as Muslims.

10 days after a mass grave of 215 Indigenous children are found in BC.

There can be no more pretending that Canada is different.

We must confront white supremacy terror in Canada, full stop.

[Lisa Richardson MD @RicharLisa]

Today is Red Dress Day. It is a day when we honour missing and murdered Indigenous women, girls & gender diverse people. We remember & uplift them. We support their families. We recognize this disproportionate violence as a national tragedy. We advocate for change. #MMIWG2S

[Naheed Dosani @NaheedD]

The Ontario government just announced a #PaidSickDays program that offers 3 days for a virus that requires people to isolate for a minimum of 10 days.

The cognitive dissonance is maddening.

[Naheed Dosani @NaheedD]

#BREAKING: The Ontario government has once again voted against #PaidSickDays.

In total, our government has now voted against paid sick days 21 times since the start of the #COVID19 pandemic.

If you’re not outraged, you’re not paying attention.

[Dr. Brian Goldman @NightShiftMD]

We’re in for dark days in Ontario. Remember to be kind to one another and to yourselves.

[Isaac Bogoch @BogochIsaac]

Ontario's new measures to curb #COVID19:

1. Limiting non-essential travel - helpful
2. Prolonging stay at home - helpful
3. Increasing hotspot vaccine - helpful
4. Defining essential work - helpful
5. Support for essential workers - absent
6. Limiting outdoor recreation - huh?

[Naheed Dosani @NaheedD]

Enhanced restrictions may be needed in Ontario, but we must be cautious of more policing.

Low-income racialized people (many are essential workers) have a history of being over-policed. They've also been hardest hit by #COVID19.

We can't police our way out of this pandemic.

[Leah ProudLakota (she/her) @LeahGazan]

5 years ago, @JustinTrudeau promised to end the on-reserve water crisis. We still have 60 long-term advisories. The AG report last month makes it clear Canada is failing. Time for this gov’t to end its systemic racism & take this human rights crisis seriously. #WorldWaterDay

[Naheed Dosani @NaheedD]

8 innocent people were killed in Atlanta yesterday by a terrorist.

Let's not act like anti-Asian racism doesn't exist in Canada too. We must stand united against the rise of discrimination towards the Asian community.

Tolerating racism IS racism.

#StopAsianHate

[Naheed Dosani @NaheedD]

A gentle reminder that after 1 year of this grueling pandemic & all we've learned about the impact that #COVID19 has on low-income frontline workers, 50 of Ontario’s elected leaders (all from one party) once again voted against #PaidSickDays yesterday.

Where is the humanity?

[Dr. Alika Lafontaine MD @AlikaMD]

I wonder if the social determinants of health would make more sense to non-academics if they were relabelled “social policy and investment choices that create health or sickness.”

These aren’t random events, or circumstances we can’t control.

[Naheed Dosani @NaheedD]

I'll never understand how we were able to fast track approval for 3 vaccines to address #COVID19 in less than a year but still haven't been able to get clean drinking water to First Nations communities who have been suffering for decades.
