On a day like this in May 2009, I was 15 and was crossing this bridge with indelible scars & with tens of thousands of Tamils. There was no Buddha or lotuses floating that day, it was dead & bleeding bodies. I was a witness.Pc: Today military's vesak decorations at #Nandikadal

Such a great project to be involved with. Teen bariatric experiences are unique bc they are also transitioning into adulthood and so, require additional age-appropriate supports.

[Ming Li MD @ming_li116]

So happy that our longitudinal follow-up of teen
#bariatricsurgery post-op experiences @SickKidsNews has been published! Read about implications of life transitions and changing social landscapes on weight management, body image, & mental health here: https://t.co/5JUTKQafiq

You were found in unmarked graves
Acts of genocide
Your precious lives taken

With spirits so strong
we heard your cries
To go home

Rest well little ones
And fly high with our ancestors
We will not forget you

You are sacred

#BREAKING: 70+ orgs across Ontario agree - we CAN'T police our way out of the pandemic.

We need to prioritize worker rights & the wellbeing of Black, Indigenous, racialized & marginalized communities.

[Scarborough Civic Action Network (SCAN) @ScarboroughCAN]

Sad to see many ppl in Woburn/M1G turned away from vaccine pop-up clinic today. Scarborough needs more doses and more clinics that are organized in partnership with community groups & orgs so they are done equitably.

@LaavanyaDharma I would be interested! Please DM me (couldn't msg you)

So proud of this group's ability to organize an phone/email zap and mobilize other health students across Ontario! #HealthWorkersFightBack

[Healthcare Students Fight Back @hcsfightback]

Our team brought together >100 healthcare students to call & email @fordnation + PC MPPs alongside frontline and essential workers.
All of us demanded #PaidSickDaysNow, public health not policing, & equitable vaccination.

[Healthcare Students Fight Back @hcsfightback]

Health workers and students, are you done with @fordnation?

Our communities need: #paidsickleave, public health, equitable vaccination...NOT policing

In the last 24 h, @DrMWarner has spoken to @CNN & I have spoken to @AJEnglish. Many other health workers have spoken to international media too.

The Ontario government's #COVID19 plan is now an international embarrassment.

The people of Ontario deserve better.

RT if you agree

[Michael Coteau @coteau]

This week my bill for 10 paid sick days will be debated in the Ontario Legislature.

Retweet if you support 10 paid sick days and send @fordnation a strong message.

Yesterday, @kohilanselva, @IliasEttayebi, Hill and I held our first health leadership event as @UofTMDprogram students with Drs. @Saadia_Sediq, @joshuapliu, @kwadwo777 and @larsendarren. It was truly amazing to hear their journeys as leaders in their respective fields!
