The euphemism economy: How Ontario health care learned to stop worrying and love the hallway - Healthy Debate
There’s a difference between softening language to ease emotional pain and softening language to hide systemic failure. One is compassion. The other is camouflage.

“The evidence from around the world is clear: where a parallel private health system operates, both health outcomes and access to care are worse. Canadians were also clear in their resounding support where every Canadian has access to a publicly funded health care system.”
Doctors across Canada are deeply concerned that the #Alberta government’s proposed private care plan will leave more Albertans waiting even longer to access health care. The CMA is calling on the government to reconsider this proposal, and focus on known solutions to support public health care.

So proud of the students supporting other students! The hallway where the med students do their practical exams had sticky notes with affirmations in English and French outside every room today :)

"Somewhere, years ago, I read an interview with a historian. They said that fascism will often resurface in societies only when the last people who fought or lived under a previous fascist regime have died."
