This doctor is defending herself from attacks by #cpc leader @PierrePoilievre who is calling her a radical liar who’s in the pocket of Trudeau. Conservatives want her to testify again. She says bring it on. We could get a really good insight into what’s really going on here in terms of party political tactics and see how/if opioid safe supply is really the issue Mr. Poilievre says it is. Watch for her testimony , if they go ahead with calling her, because she’s not backing down.

The federal Conservatives are calling for a London doctor's medical licence to be revoked and have accused her of lying about safer opioid supply. @RandyRatLFPress has more: tinyurl.com/3cywa92a #ldnont
