July is the most important month for attendings to role model behaviours for their trainees.
Please share.
Are you related to LCpl William Barnaby, Pvt Arthur Crawford, or Pvt John Alexander Smith? The Casualty Identification Program is looking for the families of Canadian soldiers missing in action at Hill 70. 1/2
100% agree. I’ve been a doctor and patient on both sides of the border. Both systems have issues. Both could be better. Neither is a panacea.
Hope you can join us this year. @HumanFact0rz @EmICUcanada @CVarnerEmerg @petrosoniak @_NMay @EMUofT @arunsayal1 @DennisCho @ETtube @CAEP_Docs @EM_Update

So excited to be in Frankfurt this weekend. Anyone else thinks it’s time that we get EM specialization Germany? @EusemY @Icem2026

Emergency medicine doesn’t wait. That’s why Dr. @davidcarr333 (Ep 5) says new residents don’t need more speed. They need structure, backup, and brutal honesty. 📊 ER burnout? Over 50%. 🕒 Avg. delay in care? 18 mins. 💡 But systems—not doctors—usually fail first. This Canada…
This team is on fire. We need 40K in the stands not 30K. Let’s go @BlueJays Another character win.
👏👏👏
Very happy to see the @OntariosDoctors asking the MOH to have an OHIP “ good faith” proposal - So patients and health care providers don’t get penalized when eligible Ontario residents don’t have a valid health card. Strong advocacy.
First day on the ward? You’re not alone. 🩺 @Samir_Grover (Ep 14) teaches docs to lead through uncertainty. 🏥 @davidcarr333 (Ep 5 & 57) learned to trust his gut after years in trauma. 🎧 This is what real medical learning sounds like. #DTLRewind #MedEd
I love hearing today that there’s been an elimination of negation- meaning there will be no more financial penalties when patients access care outside the FHO group. This will encourage walk in clinic visits appropriately and stop harm by patients.
The best conference I've ever been to

The best 15 speakers in the world. Close to 600 attendees from 30 different nationalities, and 3 days that will have a place in our memory forever. #incrementum2025
🚨 Only 3 days left to secure your #Incrementum2026 ticket at the early bird rate! The offer ends June 30 — after that, prices will increase.
Shocking and short sighted public policy by the MOH of Ontario. The impact will be even longer wait times and will undoubtedly harm patients.
It is absurd that the Ontario government is cutting ER dept hours. Docs in the Soo know the harm this will cause their patients. These miscalculations will be deadly. @OntariosDoctors @CAEP_Docs @alandrummond2 sootoday.com/letters-to-the…
