@mattgalloway.bsky.social doing a fantastic job on CBCs The Current asking the hard questions. Canadians are looking for a leader who will answer the questions, not avoid the hard truths we must face

Among a group of 31 high-income countries that have universally accessible health care, Canada has among the lowest availability of doctors, hospital beds, and most medical technologies—and some of the longest wait times. www.fraserinstitute.org/studies/comp...

Kindness in medicine isn't just a bedside manner; it's a lifesaving prescription. It's a dose of hope in despair, a release from pain that medication can't reach. Let's make healthcare not just a system, but a sanctuary #Compassionomics @nb_docs @DalMedSchool @CMA_Docs @CAEP_Docs

15 years in Canada, 1 Irish accent still partially intact, countless lessons learned. Life’s an adventure when you blend Guinness (zero) with maple syrup—here’s what I’ve figured out so far: 🇨🇦☘️ #Community, #Compassion and a #SenseofHumour go a long way!

Health isn’t a privilege; it’s a right. 🌍 Imagine healthcare organized for each community, with everyone guaranteed access to multidisciplinary teams—MDs, PAs, nurses, social workers, and more all working together to serve every person. That’s #HealthForAll. @Gov_NB @nb_docs

Loving where @janephilpott is going with #HealthForAll. Perhaps while we build a true universal system and enact access rights, we can look to open up access to current resources more fairly right now? @TJProvincial @john_dornan @susanholt @nb_docs @CFPC_e
