Thank you @TOPublicHealth for the opportunity to deliver the Charles Hastings Lecture.

Great emergency response then we lost the plot. One in nine people in Canada have had long covid but we are doing too little to treat them, support them or prevent covid. People may want to act like the pandemic is over but government should know better https://t.co/NhUUPYzrSf

Mental health is the most important health issue of our lifetime.

The launch of 9-8-8 (@988Canada) is a monumental milestone for our country and I know that CAMH will continue to lead 9-8-8 with a focus on partnership, the user experience and evidence-informed practices.

“EDI is an inside job. It isn’t about one or the other, it’s about all of us together.” A powerful talk about advancing equity in child & youth mental health. Thanks to our panel of speakers, Komal Bhasin, Liben Gebremikael & Diane Walker for sharing your perspectives. #CMHO2023

[School Mental Health Ontario @SMHO_SMSO]

Some students may need additional mental health support. When school staff and community members work together, they're activating a circle of support, the team of helpers that can come alongside a student when they are struggling.

[Mohamad Safa @mhdksafa]

“In one of the most notable moments in sports history, Kenyan runner Abel Mutai was just a few feet from the finish line, but became confused with the signage and stopped thinking he had completed the race.

A Spanish athlete, Ivan Fernandez, was right behind him, and after realizing what was happening, he started shouting at the Kenyan for him to continue running; but Mutai didn't understand his Spanish.

Fernandez eventually caught up to him and instead of passing him, he pushed him to victory.

A journalist asked Ivan, "Why did you do that?"
Ivan replied, “My dream is that someday we can have a kind of community life where we push and help each other to win.” The journalist insisted “But why did you let the Kenyan win?" Ivan replied, "I didn't let him win, he was going to win.” The journalist insisted again, “But you could have won!”Ivan looked at him & replied, “But what would be the merit of my victory? What would be the honor of that medal?
What would my Mom think of that?”

Values are transmitted from generation to generation.

What values are we teaching our children?

Let us not teach our kids the wrong ways to WIN.”
