Le Collège québécois des médecins de famille s’est récemment doté d’une nouvelle présidente, la docteure Geneviève Bois. La carrière foisonnante de cette praticienne engagée touche à de nombreux enjeux qui résonnent profondément avec les défis que le système de santé public peine à relever: médecine à deux (voire trois) vitesses, déterminants sociaux de la santé, médecine en milieu éloigné, et santé reproductive des femmes. Emilie Nicolas reçoit donc la docteure Geneviève Bois, non pas en tant que présidente du Collège des médecins de famille, mais en tant que soignante. Depuis ses études de médecine jusqu’à sa pratique à Eeyou Istchee et dans des centres de santé des femmes au sud du Québec, la docteure Bois revient sur ses engagements et sa vision de la médecine, une science avant tout humaine.
The Collège québécois des médecins de famille recently appointed a new president, Dr. Geneviève Bois. The prolific career of this committed practitioner touches on many issues that deeply resonate with challenges the public health system is struggling to meet: two- (or even three-)tier medicine, social determinants of health, medicine in remote areas, and women’s reproductive health. Emilie Nicolas talks health with Dr. Bois, not in her role as president of the Collège des médecins de famille, but as a physician. From her medical studies to her practice in Eeyou Istchee and in women’s health centres in southern Quebec, Dr. Bois reflects on her commitments and her vision of medicine, a science that is above all a human science.

Last Monday, U.S. president-elect Donald Trump posted to his beloved Truth Social with a hefty threat. If Canada and Mexico don't get the border in order, or the drugs in check, he’ll slap a 25 per cent tariff on all goods. These tariffs could crash several major U.S. industries and ruin Canada’s economy. But this isn’t the first time Trump’s threatened Canada. Host Noor Azrieh sits down with Vipal Monga to ask, did Canadian politicians learn anything from dealing with Trump the first time around, or are they stumbling into Trump 2.0 just as clueless?
And, the latest on a BC lawsuit against opioid manufacturers and distributors and alleged interference in the Conservative leadership race that got Conservative Leader Pierre Polievre elected.

With the new national dental care plan, Canadian taxpayers are now underwriting the dental industry. More than one million Canadians have dental care under the new national insurance plan, with an average spend of $730 per patient. By 2025, the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP) will expand in a big way, and will cover 6 million additional Canadians.
As taxpayers start to foot the bill for dental care, how do we make sure dentists are not overprescribing services for their patients?

The Millenium Bug was supposed to bring the world to a halt, but governments claimed they squashed the problem. Was it all a panic over nothing?
On a special episode of CANADALAND, COMMONS and The Hatchet host Arshy Mann speaks to the Canadian programmer who alerted the world to the Y2K Bug, and he speaks to the other Canadian programmer who was hell-bent on proving the bug was a hoax.

Parliament froze in late September after the Conservatives launched a privilege motion, bogging down the government and demanding the Liberals hand over documents relating to a “green slush fund.”
Since then, the House has been on pause – no bills, no legislation, no nothing. Despite important government matters, this freeze could go on for a very long time, costing taxpayers millions.
Laura Osmon, The Logic’s Ottawa reporter, joins the show to make sense of this procedural nightmare, and explain how we could get out of this gridlock.

A secret kept for a hundred years.
A family story that even the family didn’t know. Then the tech was born, the DNA came to light, and after the shock, the investigation began.
Black Market Babies is Canadaland’s new two-part special. An underworld tale of the international baby smuggling ring that bought and sold hundreds of newborns out of Montreal in the 1950s.
A family story told by the families. One reporter whose own mother was bought and sold. And another whose own DNA tied her to the one of the alleged masterminds behind the black market baby trade.
