A queer man was viciously beaten in Toronto for simply existing. Three generations of a Muslim family were killed in London, Ontario for simply existing.
For simply EXISTING.
This is sadly in the last few days.
Not months. Not years.
This is Canada, but it doesn't have to be.

.@fordnation @celliottability Hundreds of students have their careers in limbo. As future pharmacists, we cannot allow our licensing exams to be delayed any longer. Ontarians need healthcare professionals now more than ever. Please allow our OSCE exam to proceed. #LicenseToPill

Grassroot initiatives by @sacovidtf has helped Brampton East ( and Peel) community to get access to services which have been severely lacking. Need to leverage this infrastructure for vaccines next. @fordnation @celliottability @ONThealth @patrickbrownont @OntarioHealthOH

FYI Ontario pharmacy interns still don't have temporary licenses. @OntPharmacists is looking for feedback with a deadline of December 20.

I WILL dig out my 20 page essay on the use of block chain for securing the drug chain in terms of counterfeit medications. It absolutely has widespread applications in worldwide distribution when there are multiple players (pharm companies, govmts Public health units) involved. – at Brampton, Ontario
Could #Blockchain be an ingredient in pulling off worldwide #COVID19 vaccine distribution? @MobiHealthNews sat down with Mark Treshock, blockchain solutions leader for health care and life sciences at @IBM to find out. bit.ly/36a3VU4
Been following Amazon’s pharmacy adventures since they bought out pill pack. It’s not a question of if then come to Canada but when. The realities of shipping and regulations in 🇨🇦 may slow the process but won’t prevent it. – at Brampton, Ontario

Sounds like the usual @OCPInfo deferring the blame to @ONThealth and them deferring right back. Classic. It would be funny if we were talking about people’s careers being unnecessarily delayed. – at Brampton, Ontario
The Ministry of Colleges and Universities deferred the questions to the Ministry of Health, who tells CityNews that it “relies on the Ontario College of Pharmacists”. 2/2 @OCPInfo

Less than 48 hours before the exam, it was cancelled for the SECOND time. You can read more about the challenges my colleagues and I are facing, and what we want to be accomplished in this article written by the Toronto Star.
Some 200 pharmacy graduates across Canada have had to put their careers on hold due to multiple postponements of a key licensing exam because of the pandemic. @lexharvs

I would love if @OCPInfo @ONThealth @ONtrainandstudy #PEBC @UofTPharmacy @TOPublicHealth @celliottability could stop playing hot potato with the responsibility and blame, and instead resolve this problem.
Hundreds of pharmacy grads are forced to delay their entry into the workforce after their licensing exam was suddenly postponed for the 2nd time this year. Students are blaming administrators for failing to plan during the COVID-19 pandemic. bddy.me/2UNSewd @Faiza_AminTV
