I will never understand a consultant that, after introducing myself on the phone, they just respond with “what” or “yep”. Like have you ever spoken to someone in your entire life? What is that ? Lol.

Disappointing news that we all saw coming. The most impactful hit will be a significant reduction in the interest in residency training spots in family medicine. This will also lead to the devaluing of the CCFP emergency medicine stream. Terrible decision. cbc.ca/news/health/fa…

Not seeing the words "racist" or "racism" anywhere in the Bruins' press release. What Mitchell Miller did was racist. It's important to acknowledge that if you're trying to make people believe he's changed in any significant way.

Imagine working at a short-staffed restaurant with tables for 35, but you can't turn away customers. You create space for an extra 13 customers in a hallway, but there are 42 more waiting. You serve them in chairs in the lobby. Change customers to patients and this is RUH ER
