Great, now not only do I have to worry about a healthcare professional who got the job for having met the diversity, equity and inclusion nonsense, but now, that person will be even more poorly trained as well.
Dr. Bridle, you're really dropping the bombshells today. Thank you.
Canadian public health seems to be in good hands with people like Moore offering such innovative ideas. Every time I hear their solutions I can't but help but think of Newman when he ruled the bike would have to be cut in half. Canada is one big Seinfeld episode.
I reckon vaccine mandates can't be helping. If I'm a student trying to figure out what career path to choose, I ain't going into health care or the bureaucracy. You're not allowed to critically think and protect your own health in those environments.
My daughter is 17 and for now, she's not exploring such jobs but if she did, I'd step in and steer her in another direction.
The biggest thing I learned from the pandemic is that doctors working for the health authority are collectively, not worth listening to, ever. They all seem...well...stupid.
I am surprised doctors haven't been speaking out about the new diagnosis / treatment systems being put in place.
It appears the new future, system will be. a diagnostician not a doctor will diagnose the problem, probably by filling in forms supplied by the drug manufacturers, the drugs will be prescribed and supplied to be administered as per the pharma technical directives.
Proof of principle: Covid: Doctors weren't allowed to vary from pharma script, IT IS COVID, ADMINISTER THE FOLLOWING.
I was very surprised that during the pandemic doctors allowed pharma to replace them as primary client management professionals. I guess they thought it would stop at covid.
We can have shorter training times now for doctors not sure about nurses, the medical diagnosis are preset at a distance and delivered locally. I would expect the profession will degrade from doctor to technician.

This seems like an un-prepared, thoughtless response from dr.Moore, something we are quite used to. MY question is WHY are they doing this. Have so many in the medical profession LEFT due to the “mandates” which weren’t really mandates now! (That REALLY makes me furious). Shortening medical school and all the avenues associated sounds like a recipe for a lot of malpractice suits in the NEAR future! But really, do we need doctors anyway? They’re just going to give you an mRNA shot to cure all your ills.
I don’t know how it’s been in Canada, but about twenty years ago, residency work hour restrictions were enacted here in the US. As I understand it, residents can work no more than 80 hrs/week and have limits on how many hours in a row they can work.
Now, the intention seems noble. I really don’t want to be operated on by someone who has been awake for the last 24 hrs.
However, the unfortunate consequence is that this began a definite decline in the doctor-patient relationship. No longer do doctors remain in the hospital with patients awaiting their improvement; instead, they “turn over” the patient to the next shift worker. No longer do docs in training have the opportunity to observe the progression of recovery (or not) for acutely ill patients over their first 24-36 hrs of admission. Because at the end of the drs’ 12 or 16 hr shift, he goes home.
There were ways to develop overlap of care so that one tired doc was not solely responsible (always) for a critically sick patient.
Doctors graduating now seem to generally have very little commitment to the individual patient and are much more interested in shift work. Even in private practices, the dr-patient relationship has generally gone by the wayside. I mean, the patient story doesn’t matter anymore when it’s all about ticking the appropriate boxes in the EMR.
I am a now retired RN - retired in 2021 (6 -8 months ahead of schedule d/t vax mandate). I started nursing in university in 1983 - never set foot in hospital in first year! (It's much worse now 😶) Quit, worked a year, went to college program & we were in clinical, on hospital floors by late October. IMO, non degree nurses were better prepared to start work in hospital. BSN as entry to practice in early 2000's was a big mistake, I think. Much of nursing *is* basic labour (bathing, walking pts, etc - during which times one is assessing pts) - degreed nurses often don't want to do that stuff & struggle with shift work. Many give up & go back to school and become instructors. It's possible that the RN job is going to die out for the most part & be replaced by RPNs.
The last thing that we need in the future is computers and bots which mimic the expertise of health professionals that will most definitely and blindly lead us down the wrong path again upon the declaration of the next pandemic.
That's the ultimate game plan. Not just in medicine: the courts, education, law enforcement, everything else.
Thank you for saying this!!!! One thing to consider is physician's, in particular, are being phased out with artificial intelligence. They are using electronic medical records (EPIC) to train computers and determine pathways. Doctor's will be replaced by mid level providers, protocols, and computer generated recommendations. See Mike H previous comment. Seems like this is intentional destruction of the human medical health care system.
Discontinuing the murdering and injuring of doctors with the COVID shot mandates would probably help the doctor shortage also.

Current recent crop of doctors are allopathic slaves most of whom have no critical thinking skills. Make things worse? You bet.
In this crazy upside down world we are forced to live in now, I I turn to your substack writing knowing I will read only logic and common sense.
Thank you for continuing to be a beacon of light in the dark madness.
I often send your writings out to the comment section in other newsletters I subscribe to, always prefacing with, “Canadian Dr Bridle reports this…”
So proud of your brave stance through this awful last two years.
I hope you are keeping well and realize how much you are appreciated.
I wonder as a nurse myself.... maybe don’t treat “heroes “ like crap? We had shortages before Covid... can’t imagine how bad it is now.

The people responsible for damaging healthcare systems operate on the Phoenix Rises From The Ashes principle.
When they want to take over a system they destroy/damage it and then rebuild it in their desired image. This time around termed as Build Back Better.
The phoenix obtains new life by arising from the ashes of its predecessor. In other words they did it on purpose.

And also how do you teach them to have a spine and a conscience, not just a stomach and an appetite?
