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

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

@ArvindGrewalRx had already started applying for jobs in anticipation he would be a registered pharmacist. He just had to take the final exam. Then he got an email only two days before saying the exam was cancelled. We hear how many pharmacy graduates were shocked by the news.

Please listen to @__michellewang on the cancellation of licensing exams for our PharmD grads.
Safety is important, and we must accommodate the licensing of these essential healthcare workers. Our hospitals and communities need them.
@OCPInfo @fordnation
Less than 2 days before the pharmacy licensing board exams, we received notice that sites across Ontario are canceled due to concerns from Public Health. We call on #PEBC @OCPInfo @UofTPharmacy @fordnation to prioritize these vital front line health care workers

I converted my 2nd paper into an infographic: What do patients know about #pharmacists, pharmacy technicians, and physicians? How does this knowledge impact willingness to seek advice from the pharmacist? #TwitteRx #AcademicTwitter

For the first time in Ontario, patients will have unfettered access to their Ontario Lab Results (OLIS). They will see their results as soon as info becomes available, without relying on someone else to release. Patients will receive same info made available to their care team.
From mid-June to September, patients using @myUHNPortal will start to access their Ontario Lab Results (OLIS) in a phased roll-out. They will be able to see their test results, including #COVID19 results, from over 150 healthcare organizations, community & public health labs.
