I never want to hear another man say “why didn’t she report it” in response to a rape. The men online are determined to destroy Jane Doe’s life. They’ve attempted to doxx her. They’ve threatened her. Matthew Ingalls is claiming she raped him. The abuse never stops.

Let me be clear: we know from evidence in countries around the world that physician dual practice drains resources away from the public system and, in many cases, increases wait times for public patients. This goes directly against the spirit of the Canada Health Act. 1/3
