Canada’s nurses and doctors have a very simple holiday wish this year ⤵️ As we will be working on the front lines to care for our patients, we ask that you follow public health measures in your region so that you keep yourself and your loved ones safe.

Canada doesn’t get mentioned often in US media but CNN describing Canada as a country that “respected the virus” and showing Premier Ford’s praise of the federal government as example of #Covid policy taking precedence over politics. Also pointed out failures in long term care.

I learned that one of our local emergency departments will now consider the role of both implicit bias and structural racism in critical incidents during their M&M rounds. A great initiative, @DrCarolynSnider—and I am sure that you will do it with care.
