I am shaking with fury. I challenge Canadians to watch what just transpired on @CBCNews between my colleague and I - that is the sexist, hierarchical crap women have to deal with every day in medicine (alas, in every field). This specialist in a suit challenging my credentials??
Hey, @CBCNews, where’s the link? I took one “for the team,” said what needed to be said, and now we have to show others what it takes to advocate for what matters (even though it meant going up against a sexist colleague).

Women can and must continue to speak with authority without being belittled, bullied, or told to watch their tone.
