Thanks to @janephilpott for these beautiful words in this devastating moment in history. We hope that we as a GHEM community can be a safe space for our members to connect in the challenging days ahead.

Here's the msg I sent to @QueensUHealth today. Nothing justifies the killing or abduction of civilians from any place or people-group.🫂Each human deserves to live in peace & security, to have their rights recognized & respected, regardless of race, religion, or nationality...🙏

We did not call for policing.

Tonight I'll be on @TheAgenda discussing why health providers call on @fordnation to urgently reinstate paid sick days, 10 days flexible personal emergency leave & ensure employers can't require a sick note. Policy should protect public health! @DecentWorkHlth @HPAP_Ontario
