Great fastrack new hospital in Windsor. But, is the hospital for the people of Windsor alone OR is it also for Medical Tourism?
Closer to home? Hospital being built next to the airport, despite Windsorians opposing this.
Stop for profit clinics
Stop medical tourism

In @CityNewsOttawa, RNAO CEO @DorisGrinspun says instead of putting money in the pockets of investors, Ont. gov't should bring in more nurses to publicly run hospitals, open operating rooms & 24/7 diagnostics services. #Onpoli@LucasCasaletto@AJhalli81:

It appears we are at the very beginning of a spring COVID wave in Ontario. Wastewater signals from many parts of the province are up.
It is currently unclear how large this wave (or wavelet?) will be, but it would not be surprising to see a bump in hospitalizations soon.
And they’re off!
The first half of our alpha team has boots on the ground in Warsaw, delivering much needed care, medicine and supplies to refugees displaced by the crisis in Ukraine.
Many thanks to our amazing CMAT and RNAO volunteers for lending their time & expertise 🇺🇦🇨🇦🇵🇱
*UPDATE FROM THE BARGAINING TEAM*
Dear Faculty,
Today, 3 months after starting work-to-rule action, we are setting a strike deadline in an effort to compel the CEC and the College Presidents to do either of the two things they have refused to do since bargaining began:
1/3
Profs only have so much time for each of their many duties.
Increased workload,
unusually high student:faculty ratios,
and large class sizes
=
less time per student.
Sustainable workloads improve the quality of education for our students.
#ONstrikeU@UOITFA@ontariotech_u
Excellent undergraduate learning opportunities require excellent FACULTY mentorship. To provide @ontariotech_u students with experiential learning opportunities, faculty need mentorship of students to remain part of their teaching workload. #InvisibleWorkload#ONstrikeU
I teach nursing students to save lives in high acuity areas. Even through Covid-19, Ontario Tech has more than doubled my class sizes despite my concerns. Students deserve better. Patients deserve better. My workload at OTU is literally a life and death issue. @UOITFA
Over the last 15+ hrs, I’ve been overwhelmed by messages from professors that know me, some that don’t, and some that may not remember me. They have all reached out to ask how THEY can help me, when the onus truly lies on @ontariotech_u#OTUstrike@UOITFA
