Medical Direction stands in solidarity with Black, Indigenous and People of Colour (BIPOC). While recent events have brought the issues of systemic racism to the forefront of discussion, these issues are not new. These issues are deeply rooted in Canadian culture and Canadian history. As an organization we have a platform to advocate for change, not only identifying the problem but also creating tangible actionables to foster diversity and inclusion. We must acknowledge th...ese disparities in justice and equality, especially for the Black community, Indigenous community and People of Colour. Medical Direction would like to reaffirm its commitment to provide education and opportunities for everyone in the student body. We strive to broaden all students’ perspective in medicine by aiming to provide interactive, informative, and enriching experiences. Medical Direction is committed to supporting and respecting all individuals. We acknowledge that the last few weeks have been difficult, and have compiled a list of resources below to support you. It is important to take care of your mental health during this time. We also have included information to educational resources. This is the time for us to come together and stand up to support marginalized communities. Our collective action and unity work for a better future.
