In this lively chat hosted by podcaster Golda Arthur, she and I talk about gender bias in cardiac care, why women's awareness of heart disease is actually worse than it was 10 YEARS AGO, and specific strategies female patients can use to advocate for themselves. overlookedpod.com/episode/surv...

I hope these aren't cognitive tests. 🫤

I hope I never hear anything bad about this guy. I think he’s one of the 36 dudes keeping the world spinning.

Carney:

"I reject any attempts to weaken Canada, to wear us down, to break us so that America can own us. That will never happen. Our response to these latest tariffs is to fight, is to protect and to build."
