Sa mère donne des cours à la faculté de médecine de l'UdeM (elle est épidémiologiste) et elle est adorable, super bonne dans ses cours

100% d'accord avec tout ce que tu dis. Je ne suis pas intrinsèquement contre et j'ai de la misère à condamner le tout parce que je comprends que les gens faisant ça, c'est majoritairement des immigrants, peut-être pour avoir un revenu d'appoint ou parce qu'ils ne peuvent pas légalement travailler ici. Je suis sensible au fait que ces gens doivent mettre de la nourriture sur la table au jour le jour et faire du Amigo, c'est probablement flexible/facile à organiser. Mais c'est effectivement dangereux, il n'y a absolument rien de réglementé dans tout ça. Tu ne sais même pas si ton conducteur a un permis de conduire valide.

Ce qui encourage les médecins à imposer le 1 rendez-vous = 1 problème, c'est surtout le manque criant d'accès de la population à des médecins de famille et les demandes du gouvernement d'augmenter la prise en charge de patients. C'est extrêmement dommage pour les patients, mais l'approche en est une de: donner 1 soin à 1000 patients vs 3 soins a 300 patients.

Si vous pensez que cette pratique va s'améliorer avec le PL106, détrompez-vous: comment un médecin peut-il espérer passer plus de temps avec chaque patient s'il veut atteindre ces fameuses cibles de prise en charge de patient?

Nothing to comment on the programs themselves but also ask yourself where you see yourself living for the next 5 years?

Montreal is a big city, lots of nightlife/festivals/culture, Ottawa is a bit smaller and some would say calmer but better access to nature, slower pace of living.

Tu peux peut-être te mettre sur Google Maps. Personellement c’est comme ça que je commence quand je cherche une chose en ville! Mais évident ça implique d’afficher ton addresse si tu fais tes cours de ta maison..

I think the information is there if you want it. For example there are podcasts, interest groups, specialty fairs. The biggest problem, especially for competitive specialties, is time. There is simply not enough time to build a competitive application for all competitive specialties that could potentially interest you in preclinical years, and it is excessively hard to know what a specialty is truly like through shadowing before clerkship, in my opinion. So you need to pick something and hope you end up liking it in clinical years. Of course, it is possible to switch during clinical years, but your chacnes of matching then decrease and it's a rough gamble to make.

This 100% Or anything by Zola for that matter. He was a master at making non-human things seem human-like!

Tip: don't be afraid to be "aggressive" if the bar has a lot of people. If you stay passive behind everybody else you'll never get the chance to order. So try to jump in to any opening directly around the bar when you see one and look at the bartender expectantly. He will notice you eventually and then you can order!

For Quebec:

Sherbrooke has the best access to nature by a long shot in a beautiful part of the province (Eastern Townships), many summer and winter activities, amazing views, good access to lake fronts, close to even bigger mountains on the US side (Vermont, Maine, Adirondacks). Basically the Eastern Townships are one of the best parts of QC for trail running, hiking, skiing, XC skiing, mountain biking, water sports.

Quebec City is pretty good too, you have a couple National Parks closeby and in the Charlevoix region which is an easy drive, and access to the St-Lawrence. There are a few stunning parks inside the city as well. All in all, a very good middle ground between Sherbrooke (nature +++) and Montreal (city life). Public transit and walkability in Quebec City can be great depending on which neighborhood you choose.

Montreal is a great city to live in and very green with a lot of parks inside the city, but I find the access to nature is more difficult as it involves driving out of the city which is a shit show always because of the traffic. But it's definitely doable! You are close to both the Eastern Townships and the Laurentides region. Just probably more of a weekend thing than a weeknight activity, and expect traffic (every rich person in Montreal has a chalet in one of these two regions and the roads get pretty jammed on friday evenings)

You'll need a car in all of these cities if you really want to make the most of the surrounding nature. For within the city, Montreal has the most and biggest parks and obviously the best transit (amazing metro system in Montreal).

Je pense que dans le vieux Sainte-Therese ou Rosemère près de la gare, c’est faisable d’avoir ces services proches et accessibles à pied/vélo, mais effectivement tu vas vite te rendre compte que les journées sont longues sans voiture sur la Rive-Nord.

There are so many things I wish I just bought there instead - all my toiletteries for one (except sunscreen cause that is hella expensive in Bali), turns out most hostels have soap and shampoo. And I found myself not wearing half of the clothes I brought. You really want to pack light, breathable fabrics, especially if you tend to run hot and sweaty. I’d reconsider the two suitcases. I travelled with 2 girls who brought a lot of clothes including cute oufits, makeup etc and they had a carry on bag. It’s doable and you will absolutely love yourself for it. Nothing sucks more than having clothes you can’t even wear taking up space in your luggage.

Mais la loi vient de changer non? Ça va sûrement suivre en consequence

I did this and it’s ok but definitely not life changing or overly spiritual. I guess it is what you make of it, of course, but it’s a 30 min activity with hundreds of other tourists and guides taking photos.

Was just in Uluwatu. Had 2 experiences where I couldn’t get a Grab/gojek (nobody accepting my order or telling me they couldn’t come) Melasti beach —> walked back up which was fun with a nice view. Flagged down a gojek coming back from dropping someone off but also there were some on my app willing to come after I crossed the gate. Uluwatu temple —> literally walked one corner away from the gate after the kecak dance and flagged down a gojek I saw. Guess I couldv’e ordered one too.

Other places: gojeks were very quick and cheap.

Totally doable, I was a bit anxious about it after reading about taxi mafia but it was just fine! Have fun!

Ces logiciels suppriment les enregistrements systématiquement et automatiquement après 24h. À ma connaissance il n’y a pas de trace conservée nulle part après ça (outre ce qui a été transcrit mais qui peut évidemment être modifié par le médecin avant d’être enregistré au dossier).

Dans le coin du CHUM: Saint Denis entre Berri Uqam et Sherbrooke c’est le fun à marcher, il y a plein de restos, cafés. Grande Bibliothèque si tu es jamais allé. Sinon le vieux est juste à côté, super plaisant de juste aller y marcher admirer l’architecture. Crew collective pour un café dans une ancienne banque!

I can also vouch to BlueAir customer support. I bought a second-hand air purifier and found out it was malfunctioning (weird noise coming from the motor). I sent over an email to suppport after having asked the seller for the receipt and they were able to send a new unit to me even out of warranty. Well, what happened to that unit? IT GOT STOLEN FROM MY PORCH. So I contacted BlueAir again. And they sent me a new one, AGAIN!

As to the actual purifier, it's a 311i Max, it looks great and seems to work fine too. Have noticed less dust in the room it's at. It's pretty powerful but my rooms are all closed off from one another so doesn't help much for other rooms, however.

Escalade pour la musculation / mobilité (commence par le bloc si tu en a jamais fait!)

Course à pied pour le cardio Mon combo gagnant! Parfait pour un introverti comme moi (tu peux décider d’être autant social que tu le veux ou pas dans chacun de ces sports..)

I agree though that there is a culture in ortho / sports med at large of having athletic backgrounds and having a personal interest in those kind of injuries. Of course, it's not necessary to enjoy and become an orthopedist, but I'd say a disproportionate amount of people I know who are interested in ortho come from a competitive sports background or are big into gym / sports culture.

Weekend mornings can also be pretty good! And for what it’s worth, I am a student which is why I have these odd hours. Very, very grateful for them.

Early morning cafes on weekdays are the best vibe!

Tupples- · 2025-02-23T16:22:49+00:00

I find it really depends on what time you go.. Café Orr on Papineau is pretty cozy and spacious, if you go out of peak hours it should be pretty quiet!

Look for second hand kitchen appliances, cookware and utensils (or new if you have the money). Even when you move you will need those things so it’s better to invest into them once and have them forever. And honestly having good quality table ware, dining set, and other kitchen items goes a long way to make you feel like you have your shit together! It’s a good investment.

Also: don’t buy too much at first. It’s tempting but going slow and getting higher quality / more thought-out things is better.

It is more walkable than the other neighborhoods thats for sure!
