The CMA spent a year studying public and private health models and consulting with more than 10,000 Canadians on the balance between the two. The evidence is clear: where a parallel private health system operates, both health outcomes and access to care are worse.

When I was laid off, I spoke with the others who got the axe with me.
We realized we had all had moments where we pushed back in editorial disagreements with our superiors.
Turns out a culture of layoffs that targets those who are least deferential to authority has the expected impact.

I mean, look, I'm not a reporter, so who am I to talk?
But on a day where the president both just called a woman reporter "Piggy" and is celebrating someone who had people bone saw apart one of my colleagues, I might just be a little ready to defend my colleagues and profession.
But that's just me

This is interesting — a recent study of mode share (the % share of transportation trips by car, transit, walking, biking etc) relative to city size and income levels in almost 800 cities in 61 countries. Interesting results. HT @davidzipper.bsky.social

Je crois que j’ai atteint ma limite annuelle de photos de docteurs qui posent avec leur tête de « le docteur est très fâché là » pour pleurnicher sur des aspects du PL2 qui, en réalité, se tiennent.
Le PL2 a ses vrais problèmes mais la priorisation des patients n’en fait pas partie.

For years my guiding principle at work has been: “Don’t be a jerk.”
It’s simple but unfortunately not that obvious.
But recently, I’ve met people who act like jerks yet truly believe they’re good.
Which makes me wonder ... how do any of us know for sure?

J’ai un peu de mal avec le spin médiatique actuel qui présente les médecins du QC comme de pauvres victimes sans pouvoir.
Oui, les projets de loi 106 et 2 sont problématiques. Non ils ne vont pas aider.
Mais ça ne fait pas des médecins les gens les plus a plaindre sur la planète pour autant.

Cargo biking, 99 years ago. Came across this in a photo archive, unfortunately with no info on who or where, just the year, 1926. But it made me think of @lauragmitchell.com and her lovely feed of her commutes to school and around town with her children.

Hey BC doctors.
It is not ok to charge palliative patients private pay fees for opioid prescriptions.
Like, ever.
This medication class is essential for quality of life. Changes in dosing are common & essential. Getting to the clinic when you are dying from eg cancer, can be complicated.

For having worked on both bikes and accordions I kinda like that grouping to be honest
Bike mechanics want the government to recognize the job as a distinct profession and skilled trade.
Right now, they're officially grouped with workers who repair accordions, jukeboxes and the safety valves on pipelines.
