@raghu_venugopal This case is me. And I am so thankful I live in 🇨🇦 , where my cancer treatment (minimum $6500/mo) is covered. As are all scans, & lab work, & surgeries, and… and…. …and I don’t have to worry about co-pay, or deductibles, or network coverage. I can concentrate on healing.

@KenyonWallace @OntariosDoctors @TorontoStar NPs are the most researched group of health professionals, with tremendous evidence supporting our integration in all areas of healthcare, including LTC. [@NPAOntario] (https://t.co/2TzIl5GMiM) [@NatKusendova, MPP](https://t.co/L8TUj3uvaa)

[Valerie NP @reliefnurse]

@KenyonWallace @OntariosDoctors @TorontoStar Surely we've reached a point where we can move beyond silos in healthcare and turf wars, and foster collaboration for the good of patients and all healthcare providers. There is more than enough work for us all! …2

@AnthonyFarnell Do. Not. Anger. The Cobra Chicken!

[Raghu Venugopal MD @raghu_venugopal]

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre chooses raw hate mobilizing a well-trodden right-wing strategy to attack a very tiny minority of Canadians who have harmed no one. If you know a trans woman, you are horrified Canada has such nasty bigoted leaders.
