“If it is to be, it is up to me.” Homelessness is a policy choice. 35% of Canadians have been homeless or know someone who has. Imagine if the people touched by homelessness & those who care about them all demanded government solve it. newmarkettoday.ca/columns/road-h…

There are 3 truths about Canadian healthcare that the public will acknowledge in the next two years: 1. Healthcare is collapsing across Canada because of decisions to underfund it over the past two decades. For folks who say it’s unsustainable, we’ve been saying that for 30…

Black people are more likely to have severe complications from diabetes in Canada. Dr. Azza Eissa (@DrAzZa110), family physician & @upstreamlab researcher at St. Michael's Hospital, says delayed diagnosis & lower screening rates add to the risk. @CBCNews cbc.ca/news/health/am…
I can’t believe we are left to writing medical letters to help patients access AC in this heatwave. This is because 1 in 4 Canadians are living in poverty. A $300 air conditioner can help prevent a $30,000 hospital admission. The compounding crises of poverty and climate…

While people living with dementia may follow different health care trajectories, family doctors are often the first point of contact in accessing care in the community. For the full story, check out our dementia report: #dementia #accesstocare #cdnhealth ow.ly/OJ8u50Re8vK
A housing remedy for Canada’s hard-hit ERs: As a small number of homeless patients make thousands of emergency room visits, hospitals grapple with how to better treat people with nowhere else to turn, by @mollyhayes @yangsun_ys57f theglobeandmail.com/canada/article… via @globeandmail #sdoh
Saw a patient recently without housing who was in and out of hospital. But how could we keep calling them “hard to reach” or “lost to follow-up” when they didn’t have a cell phone? Peer workers in the Stabilization Centre/ER set up a phone for him and the next morning I got a…
For anyone doubting the primary care crisis in Canada, here is the latest international ranking from the Commonwealth Fund: Canada ranks last of 10 countries in access to primary care. It is again hard to call ourselves a universal health system. ctvnews.ca/canada/how-can…
Please, send a message right now to party leaders and housing critics asking them to put pressure on the government to Build a Better Federal Housing Budget. action.caeh.ca/federal_budget…
What do Canadians want – and should be able to expect - from primary care? @tara_kiran channels the voices of nearly 10,000 Canadians to answer this question in this excellent podcast. podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/thi…
Use your voice for change. Visit OurCare.ca and write to your elected representative and share with them what every person in Canada deserves when it comes to primary care
