Among the 'health organizations' advocating boycott of the Israeli Medical Association, is the deeply Antisemitic Jewish Voices For Peace (JVP). It is obscene that the Lancet legitimizes a group who chants “hey hey, ho ho, the Yahudi [Jews] have got to go.” JVP also organized many of the campus encampments and blamed the October 7th massacre of civilians by Hamas on Israel. The Lancet has leveraged its position as a respected medical journal to give voice to terrorist apologists and propagandists, undermining its role in medical research. @TheLancet @jvplive @JvpAction @ADL

🚨Queen’s University law professor Bruce Pardy warns: Mark Carney branded peaceful truckers “seditionists” and “terrorists” simply for protesting Trudeau’s mandates — no violence, just honking horns and parking tickets. Now as Prime Minister, he’s advancing Liberal hate speech laws that will silence dissent and crush the right to protest. Every Canadian 🇨🇦 should be deeply worried: our free speech is in grave danger. Wake up! #MarkCarneyMustGo

This. Elon and Trump are great theatrical distractions for the liberals to use to keep the focus of Canadians to things that are completely irrelevant for Canadians. Instead of what’s happening at home.
If you really need to hate rich people, if that’s your jam….. Go for it. But at least be consistent. I don’t hear a PEEP from Canadians who tweet about Elon complain about Mark Carney. A man who’s using your tax dollars and your old age funds to personally enrich himself at Brookfield. He’s using Canada’s money to make himself a billionaire while more Canadians than ever are using food banks and can’t buy a home. If you’re going to rip on Elon, then you should be LIVID about your prime minister. At least Elon uses his own money.

Ce sont nos entrepreneurs qui créent la richesse qui finance nos écoles, nos routes et nos hôpitaux. Sans eux, il serait impossible d’offrir des services publics de qualité aux Québécois. Or, le gouvernement freine cette création de richesse en multipliant les obstacles inutiles : processus en double, règles, paperasse excessive et contraintes de conformité qui n’ajoutent aucune réelle protection. C’est le temps que les choses changent pour permettre aux entrepreneurs d’investir, de créer des emplois payants, d’augmenter les salaires et de dégager des marges de manœuvre pour financer des baisses d’impôt. Le Parti conservateur du Québec s’engage à réduire de 30% le fardeau réglementaire en 4 ans. La première étape consiste à dresser l’inventaire de la réglementation inutile, et nous avons besoin de vous pour y parvenir. Rendez-vous sur FiniLaPaperasse.com pour nous partager votre témoignage de façon anonyme.

At @FDD we are examining foreign influence in our K-12 schools by malign actors including the Islamist regime in Qatar.👇
WATCH: How I used local public records laws to collect millions of dollars worth of funding contracts, teaching materials and emails in U.S K-12 public school districts, funded by the Qatari ruling royal family’s foundation, @QFIntl , which said Monday is winding down.

Love this perspective. Fluid responsiveness and venous congestion often overlap. In a patient with established congestion but clinical signs of tissue hypoperfusion, what is your preferred management strategy?

Le Québec compte trop de lois, trop de règlements, trop de contrôles de l’état. Nous en comptons plus que n’importe quelle autre province au Canada. Deux fois et demie plus qu’en Alberta. Il faut déréglementer. Laisser plus de liberté à nos citoyens, à nos entreprises, à nos contribuables. On lance aujourd’hui un site: finilapaperasse.com/ Envoyez nous un exemple de règlement inutile que vous souhaitez voir abolir. Nous rendrons public vos suggestions en campagne électorale. Le Parti conservateur du Québec s’engage à éliminer au moins 30% de la réglementation actuelle!

No. Check for tolerance first. Responsiveness does not equal need, nor benefit. Maximizing output was shown decades ago to not be a viable strategy. Optimize tissue perfusion. Learners, please reconsider a forward-flow-centric approach. Focus on tissue perfusion, and the two do NOT have a linear relationship. Understand hemodynamic interfaces.

You can’t expect a one-size-fits-all to work for heterogeneous pathophysiology. Please stop looking for a single approach, just analyze your interfaces and act accordingly. Enough already of this protocol management where we pretend hemodynamic derangement is always the same.

Prime Minister Carney is arriving at the G7 as the only leader whose country is in recession. In his speech today, he spoke about a “New World Order” again, while Canadians have empty fridges, empty gas tanks, and empty bank accounts paying for his inflationary taxes and spending. They don't need empty words. He should stop taking credit for things done over a decade ago. We have had free trade with France since Prime Minister Harper got a deal with all of Europe. Today’s phoney, unenforceable “Joint Statement” is another illusion filled with meaningless garble. No more theatre. Canadians need affordability, jobs and safety, and an end to the Liberal government here at home.

Je vais partir du principe que tu es de bonne foi, parce que ton raisonnement est intuitif et que 90% des gens le partagent. Mais il repose sur trois erreurs factuelles, et ça vaut le coup de les regarder calmement. Erreur 1 : la fortune d'Elon n'est pas un tas d'argent. C'est de la propriété d'usines, de fusées et de satellites. "Prendre la moitié de sa tune", concrètement, ça veut dire forcer la vente de la moitié de SpaceX et Tesla. L'argent ne sort pas d'un coffre, il sort des entreprises elles-mêmes, qui passent sous contrôle de fonds étrangers ou d'États. Tu ne redistribues pas du cash, tu démantèles un outil de production. C'est la différence entre récolter des pommes et découper le pommier. Erreur 2 : "ça résout énormément de problèmes dans le monde". Cette expérience a déjà été tentée, en vrai. En 2021, le directeur du Programme Alimentaire Mondial de l'ONU a affirmé que 6 milliards de Musk pouvaient "résoudre la faim dans le monde". Réponse d'Elon : décrivez-moi exactement comment, comptabilité publique à l'appui, et je vends mes actions Tesla immédiatement. Le PAM a publié son plan. Verdict : ce n'était pas "résoudre la faim", c'était nourrir 42 millions de personnes pendant un an. Un an. Puis il faut re-payer, pour toujours. Le PAM avait d'ailleurs levé 8,4 milliards l'année précédente, et la faim était toujours là. Les ONG traitent les symptômes en boucle, jamais les causes, parce que leur financement dépend de l'existence du problème. Erreur 3, la plus importante : tu cherches ce qui sort vraiment les gens de la pauvreté. Bonne nouvelle, on a la réponse, et elle est massive. En 1990, 36% de l'humanité vivait dans l'extrême pauvreté. Aujourd'hui, moins de 9%. Plus d'un milliard de personnes sorties de la misère en 30 ans. Par quoi ? Pas par la charité ni par l'aide internationale (plus de 1 000 milliards versés à l'Afrique en 60 ans pour un résultat à peu près nul). Par l'ouverture des marchés, l'industrialisation, le commerce. La Chine seule a sorti 800 millions de personnes de la pauvreté en abandonnant le collectivisme, pas en taxant ses entrepreneurs. Donc fais le calcul complet. Option A : tu confisques 500 milliards, tu finances quelques années de programmes, l'argent est consommé, et tu as détruit la machine qui produisait les fusées, les voitures électriques et l'internet des zones rurales. Option B : tu laisses le meilleur allocateur de capital de sa génération réinvestir 100% de sa fortune dans des industries qui baissent les coûts pour tout le monde et emploient des centaines de milliers de personnes. L'option A soulage ta morale pendant 18 mois. L'option B sort des populations entières de la pauvreté pour toujours. La pauvreté ne se redistribue pas. Elle se résout par la création. C'est contre-intuitif, c'est frustrant, mais c'est ce que disent 200 ans de données.
tu lui prends la moitié de sa tune ça résout énormément de problèmes dans le monde et ça ne change strictement rien à son train de vie

From Christian Homes to Slave Markets: 4.5 Million African Christians Brutally Enslaved in 2026: While the world keeps obsessing over slavery from centuries ago, millions of Christians are being kidnapped, bought, and sold right now in Africa yet almost no one is talking about it. Africa has 7 million people trapped in modern slavery. 4.5 million of them are Christians. Among the victims: 2.4 million Christian women & girls 1 million Christian children An average slave is sold for just $90. Worst affected Christian populations: Nigeria: 1.611 million slaves (45-50% Christian) DR Congo: 407,000 slaves (90-95% Christian) South Sudan: 115,000 slaves (60-70% Christian) These are Christian believers people who follow Jesus, read the Bible, and live their faith being ripped from their homes and communities into forced labor, sexual slavery, and horrific exploitation Why is there endless discussion about historical slavery, but complete silence on this massive ongoing Christian slavery crisis in 2026 ? Christian lives are under attack today. It’s time to break the silence and demand attention for this tragedy.

I don’t think haemodynamics is taught badly because it is complicated. I think it is taught badly because we teach the variables before we teach the system. New post on The Dependent Variable.

It’s really too bad that in medicine there’s no real equivalent to the mats where you can really test yourself without any further consequence beyond improvement.

We are literally making ourselves the laughing stock of humanity. Has any country ever taken a national holiday for another country. The ridiculousness is unbelievable.
🇨🇦🇸🇴 Today, I introduced a private member’s bill that would declare July of every year in Canada as Somali Heritage Month! I’d like to thank MP @HonAhmedHussen for co-sponsoring this bill with me and for his counsel. I hope that all MPs will support this legislation. Canada is home to many Canadians of Somali heritage. Canadians of Somali descent have left and continue to leave a historic mark on Canada, with contributions that span communities across the country and are reflected in Canada’s economic, political, social and cultural life. If passed, Somali heritage month would give us an opportunity to celebrate that heritage, the role that Canada has played in supporting Somali Canadians and their contributions to Canada.

A must.
I’ve started a Substack: The Dependent Variable. X is great for short-form discussion, but it’s not ideal for building a coherent archive. This will be the home for longer-form writing on cardiovascular physiology, haemodynamics, fluids, shock, ultrasound and critical care reasoning. All in one place, easier to follow and return to.
