Provincial registration determines who is authorized to practise psychology.
But when a psychologist registered in another province moves to Ontario, the same title may reflect different education and supervised-training requirements. So, what does that title tell patients and families about the preparation behind it?
Watch my new video: Different Pathways, One Title: A National Credential for Psychologists in Canada.

All veterans share a selfless commitment to serve Canada. On #RemembranceDay, we honour their service and sacrifice, pay tribute to those who gave their lives in duty, and remember those who never came home.

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.

🙏 There are moments when silence speaks louder than words..
Ukrainians fall to their knees upon the arrival of their fallen soldiers, heads bowed in a silence imbued with both gratitude and sorrow. This is no mere farewell; it is a gesture of respect that words cannot express.

"We are consistently seeing well over 200 patients a day. We're breaking records, sometimes seeing as many as 230 patients." ER doctor @NightShiftMD tells @MooreintheAM about a crushing surge of patients, putting more pressure on structural issues like not enough hospital beds.

I’m sure it’s easy to think it’s overkill when your life didn’t already get destroyed by the virus lol, but mine did. Along with my other health issues I developed chronic migraines, I lost my career, my income is half what it was before & I have to use a chair in the shower

Dr. Hicks recorded this in clinic last night. Evenings, weekends, whatever it takes.
The Ontario government calls that a red flag. Doctors are being warned for too many days worked and too many patients seen. #onpoli

I’ve met a staggering number of adult professionals with long COVID who’ve had to uproot and move in with family just to make ends meet. Others don’t even have that option.
This disease is massively disabling and decimating our workforce. We need solutions, not denial.

Only in Canada! 🇨🇦🪵 When a massive fallen tree blocked a highway on October 17, a group of motorists jumped into action to help clear the road. From a man with a chainsaw to kids picking up smaller branches, travellers of all ages pitched in to lend a hand.

With ongoing RN layoffs in Ontario, we’re seeing situations where ONE nurse is caring for TEN patients in acute care. It should be one nurse to four patients. This is not sustainable for nurses or patients. Nurses are bearing the brunt of these cuts, but patients pay the price too. We need safe staffing, not more pressure on nurses to do more with less. Are we really going to keep watching this happen and do nothing? #onpoli

在 Montreal 举行的 EU-Canada Summit 上，欧盟主席冯徳莱恩讲了一个感人又令人惊叹的始于二战时故事：
荷兰解放期间，加拿大士兵 George Emmerson 驻扎在荷兰城市 Enschede。一天，他遇到一个瘦弱得几乎走不动的年轻人 Henk Metselaar，便把他带回驻地，给他食物，还送给他两块巧克力。Henk 活了下来，一辈子都希望有机会当面感谢这位救命恩人。而 George 也一直惦记着，那个年轻人后来是否平安度过了战争？！
将近70年后，George 在加拿大多伦多附近的一家家具店买椅子，和一位荷兰裔女店员聊起了这段往事。没想到，听完故事的女店员当场落泪：Henk 正是她的父亲！他早在1950年代就已经移居多伦多。后来，George 去养老院探望 Henk，每次都会带上一小块巧克力，直到他去世。
两块巧克力，隔着大半个世纪，让两个曾以为此生再也𣎴能相见的人重逢，命运的安排令人置信。马上就是 Remembrance Day 了，这个战争年代的故事值得被记住🌺🙏🏽

Patrick Stewart supported Amnesty’s human rights work for a long time and will be deeply missed. Beyond his fierce commitment to stopping violence against women, he also supported human rights scholarships for projects around the world and was on AIUSA’s Executive Directors’ Leadership Council many years back.
Rest in power Patrick and thank you for all that you gave.
Sir Patrick Stewart was best known for playing heroes on screen, but one of his bravest acts was telling the truth about his own childhood and speaking up for human rights.
For many years, he stood with Amnesty and spoke openly about the violence his mother suffered at home to support our campaign to stop violence against women. His honesty gave courage to survivors around the world.
Our thoughts are with his wife, family and friends. The best way to honour him is to carry on the fight he believed in. It should appal us all that the scourge of violence against women and girls continues, and Governments must do far more to end it.

We mourn the passing of Patrick Stewart, who inspired countless individuals at NASA (and beyond) to boldly go where no one has gone before.
