A call to *centre* values such as anti-oppression, anti-racism and social justice *in the practice of medicine* means supporting MDs to obtain the knowledge and skills necessary to address the shameful chasm in health outcomes for Black and Indigenous peoples... /1

Warning ⚠️ EDI can be bad for your health! In this internal document from the @Royal_College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada, there is a proposal from the EDI group to prioritize social justice over medical expertise. This is bonkers. #Cdnpoli @fordnation #Onhealth

The benefits of universal contraception access extend beyond family planning. Our @Contracepti_ON latest piece published today @HealthyDebate @HumairaNiazi9 @JT_MD2024
CoverContraceptiON@Contracepti_ON

"[Examining] the health benefits and conditions treated by contraceptives, it’s safe to say that family planning is only half the story." say CoverContraceptiON volunteers @EmmaSkolnik @HumairaNiazi9 @JT_MD2024 for @HealthyDebate healthydebate.ca/2023/10/topic/…

Must-read: How to create psychological safety, stopping harassment/discrimination in medicine, and the barriers to doing so (tl:dr - the toxic culture) Excellent work by @fmsiad and @doreen_rabi. #meded #MedTwitter I love the systematic recommendations. 👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽

Proud to join @Contracepti_ON, a group of healthcare providers calling on Ford Government to provide free & timely contraception - a pillar of reproductive human rights. OHIP doesn't cover contraception costs, only vascetomies. Ford can fix this but won't. #WorldContraceptionDay

I'm no @DrJenGunter but I was so distressed by the "you're on your own" mentality of our 🇨🇦 medical protection agency that I wrote them a response. Maybe if we all wrote them we would be heard.

Yesterday hinge told me my daily most compatible match was with “B” and their profile was a picture of a burrito. That’s it. And I’ve never felt more seen.

CHOICE is not equally available to everyone. What about Black and Indigenous women, trans or non-binary ppl, poor women, women who use drugs or sex workers who don't trust the system to provide safe and accessible care because it often doesn't? /1 🧵 #AbortionIsHealthcare
Justin Trudeau@JustinTrudeau

The right to choose is a woman’s right and a woman’s right alone. Every woman in Canada has a right to a safe and legal abortion. We’ll never back down from protecting and promoting women’s rights in Canada and around the world.

Last week, @UnityHealthTO, where I trained as a resident and work now (St. Mike's), hosted a townhall to discuss a recent report based on interviews with staff, physicians and learners re: their experiences of Anti-Black Racism. 🧵 /1

So well written and informative @CMAJ commentary by my dear friend and colleague @EmilyDelpero alongside mentor @DrAmandaSelk. TY for leading this important shift in Canadian cervical cancer screening.
