Every year, the Calgary EM program hosts a retreat in the mountains to reconnect and strengthen our community of practice. So grateful to welcome @heathermurray.bsky.social to retreat this year to share her wisdom and reflections on the challenges of EM practice in the face of a pressured system.

"Earth is our spacecraft, keeping us all alive in the vacuum of space. We are in the middle of nowhere. Completely exposed. On our own. We belong to this planet, and we need to do what we can to make life on Earth better." - Canadian Astronaut David St Jacques #ICEM2025

What better way to celebrate arriving in Montreal for #ICEM2025 than a hearty poutine from La Banquise at 1AM? Next up: Montreal bagels!

Warm congrats to all the med students joining the EM community this July! CaRMS is an emotional rollercoaster; the intense emotional end to one chapter and the prologue to the next. To those facing disappointment today: the EM journey is not always linear. We'll be here waiting for you ♡
