If you want to check out my first-ever podcast (as If you want to check out my first-ever podcast (as the host) here it is! (Link in bio). Remember last year when I took a poll asking you what type of podcast you would be interested in hearing? Mostly, people were interested in hearing about topics in medicine that are normally considered too taboo to discuss. This led to me helping to launch a new section of a medical journal. So thank you for your input! The Canadian Family Physician now has a new section called The 3rd Rail, for articles about controversial topics in family medicine. They asked me to guest host a podcast to go along with our first contributor’s piece. I hope you enjoy! PS - Yes I am sitting on a blanket on my floor at home and recorded it using #zoom - ❤️ watch out for this newbie pandemic podcaster 😂hopefully I’ll be able to host another one and even upgrade to a studio one day!

Why do we have to choose just one thing to be? I’m a doctor but I’m also a poet. An aunt. A journalist and a sister. I love indie 🎥 films though I haven’t achieved the status of movie buff yet🍿 Have you ever heard of the ancient philosopher Copernicus? He was a physician, a polyglot (one who speaks many languages), an economist, and astronomer, a diplomat and more. In medicine we can have a one-tracked mind. We can become so hyper-focussed on medicine at the expense of gaining more expansive knowledge. It’s too bad because broadening our horizons helps us make better doctors. So I shall read my Sylvia Plath as I prep for my upcoming week in medicine ( : I’m also at a restaurant for the first time in months!!! Feels good. It all feels very good.
Finally done my quarantine! Second one of the year Finally done my quarantine! Second one of the year. Heading into my first day of work in Yellowknife. It’s an orientation day. Orientations are so essential. You can get familiar with the system before starting patient care. Lots of learning of new things but also lots of excitement!

In this @CanFamPhysician podcast, I interviewed Dr. Shane Neilson, disabled poet, physician and scholar. Thank you @Sneilsonwwh for providing this needed perspective about disability in the time of #COVID19

This @globeandmail includes an article by one of my favourite writers, Lawrence Hill. His piece encourages saying goodbye to the racist #AuntJemima logo. Next up: #UncleBens. Great job Dr. Hill!

Chief Bill Ward of the Metepenagiag Mi’kmaq Nation is right when he said "...if you’re mentally ill and you have a bad day, the cops can kill you for it.” Police brutality and #SystemicRacism MUST END

A week ago, George Floyd, was murdered by a white police officer. How many more black people have to be killed by the police in order for the system to change? And how, @POTUS, is threatening military action the appropriate response to this injustice?
