It’s almost as if we need to think about housing as something other than just a wealth development stream……that’s one stream, but we need others.

Housing concerns are mounting in Nova Scotia due to the devastation caused by the wildfires over the last couple of weeks. trib.al/zu021Ew

And lastly, queer people benefitting off of corporate pride to actually get paid what they deserve is fine by me but these events are far more impactful and authentic when not tied to a corporate partner.

Results from ⁦@DalMedSchool⁩ Wellness Survey, created by Dr.‘a Cooper and Preston. 50% of respondents reported #moraldistress. A signal of a system in pain.

Residents and onlookers must be aware of dangers and restrictions of operating a drone over a forest fire. They can interfere with the suppression effort and pose a danger to aircraft and first responders.

Good luck. The average 1 bedroom in Halifax is renting for $2,089 per month. It works, for a single income household earning 80k +. The focus may be on growing the city, but we gotta ask, who are we growing it for? And who are we leaving behind?

Only 260 family medicine spots unmatched... This should be of significant concern at a gov't level. Primary care matters. But tbh as I watch my wife and my dad, both family MDs, work late into the evening to "catch up" on paperwork...the # of spots unmatched isn't surprising

Being awake for 24 hours is the equivalent of having a blood alcohol content of 0.10%. This is higher than the legal limit for driving. If doctors aren’t fit to use their driver's license after 24 hours awake, should they be asked to use their medical license?

I'm going to tell you something that Justin Trudeau & Pierre Poilievre won't. We've summoned Galen Weston and Grocery CEOs to testify before Parliament tomorrow. I don't care how rich and powerful they are. They owe you an answer about why they're charging you $40 for chicken.

It’s Resident Awareness Week. Over 550 resident doctors practice in the Maritimes every day while completing their residency at Dalhousie University. Like Adele, a first-year General Surgery resident. New doctors, new ideas, for better health care. #MardocsAwareness2023

Heartbreakingly, the issue at the core of suicide is so often social rather than purely mental health related. If we want to reduce suicide, we need to invest in bolstering the social services available -- especially in NS where the housing crisis is out of control.

Resident Awareness Week 2023 is here. Every day, over 550 residents work in hospitals, healthcare centres and clinics all over Nova Scotia, New Brunswick and PEI. Maritime Resident Doctors: New doctors, new ideas for better health care. #MardocsAwareness2023

LOL. "Observant readers will have noticed that this article is little more than a call to action calling for action to think carefully about calls to action." bmj.com/content/379/bm…

Watch NZ Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern pick apart this reporter's question during a joint press conference with Finnish PM Sanna Marin. He asked the pair 'are you two meeting because you're similar in age and got a lot of common stuff there?' Read more: trib.al/HSLyzZQ

I instruct an upper-year undergraduate course on Healthy Aging at @queensu - for one of the assignments, students were asked to create an infographic discussing a common myth about aging. I have permission to share some of the infographics with you... 1/7
