Over the past four weeks, I have been driving my van through northern, central, and rural Manitoba to spread my messages of joy, hope, and positivity. I was born in a village in a farming family, where we grow wheat, rice, sugarcane, maize, canola, and other crops. Driving through the wheat farms of Manitoba reminded me of my childhood in my village, where the crops and the surrounding views were similar and familiar. It made me nostalgic about my own roots. I grew up among wheat crops. I am glad that I could get a closer look at rural, remote, and non-urban Manitoba, where many real Manitoban cultures thrive. I visited many families and stayed with them, ate food with them, and they showed me their way of living and how they do farming on the land. This video also showcases the beauty of the wide and open spaces of prairie farms. I am thankful to two farmers from The Pas, Manitoba, of Round The Bend Farm, for helping me make this video. I ended this video with two photos in which I am kissing the wheat crop from my ancestors' farm in my village and a sunset at my ancestors' farm in Punjab to create this wonderful farming connection between two lands that produce similar crops and help bring food to many plates. ==== Music Credits: English Song Manitoba by Stompin' Tom Connors Punjabi Song Dollar by Pavitar Lassoi

I stand with all #cysticfibrosis patients worldwide who are being denied access to lifesaving treatment. @VertexPharma: $326,000 is NOT an affordable price. You must act now to save lives & ensure that every patient, everywhere can access these critical drugs! #RightToBreathe

One thing I wish I had done throughout med school/residency is keep a running list of all the awesome things I’ve done: difficult diagnoses I’ve made, patients I’ve helped, kudos from attendings, etc. Because my dumbass brain only wants to remember all the times I’ve fucked up

Proud to be a Manitoban today and proud of my fellow Manitobans. Happy to see people respond to hope and optimism rather than fear and division. Thanks to all candidates, whether you won or lost, for helping make the province a better place.

I may just be getting old and grumpy but I could do without the entertainment during stoppages. Just give me Dancing Gabe, fans who look like celebrities and babies wearing ear protection.

Things that make me smile. Winnipeg is trying this thing where a group of young people in shiny silver jackets dance in front of a camera during stoppages in play. It's going... OK. Whenever the arena switches feeds to Dancing Gabe, though, the crowd roars. He's still the king.
