More than six million Canadians don't have a family doctor. Millions more are waitlisted to see specialists and surgeons. We've never spent so much on healthcare as a nation, yet access to care has never been worse. How do we begin to heal healthcare?  2:45 | Drs. Shazma Mithani and Sheila Wijayasinghe, hosts of The Doc Talk podcast, tell us how the average Canadian can better know their rights and advocate for themselves and their loved ones. We cover today's top healthcare-related stories, including the first case of H5 bird flu in Canada, and Alberta cutting off publicly-funded vaccines for community health centres. Plus, is that $2,000 full body scan you're considering actually worth it?  CHECK OUT THE DOC TALK PODCAST: https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-doc-talk-podcast/id1775772809 1:06:00 | Real Talkers Ken and Mark share why our Remembrance Day episodes had such an impact on them, and Real Talker Don fact checks a comment Ryan made about former astronaut and federal cabinet minister Marc Garneau.  D-DAY VET MARTY JONES ON REAL TALK: https://rtrj.info/111124MartyJones REMEMBRANCE DAY ROUND TABLE: https://rtrj.info/110824NSLA 1:13:00 | Real Talker Keith from Leduc tells us why he was "aggravated" by our episode after the U.S. presidential election.  EMAIL THE SHOW: talk@ryanjespersen.com  FOLLOW US ON TIKTOK, TWITTER, & INSTAGRAM: @realtalkrj REAL TALK MERCH: https://ryanjespersen.com/merch RECEIVE EXCLUSIVE PERKS - BECOME A REAL TALK PATRON:   / ryanjespersen   THANK YOU FOR SUPPORTING OUR SPONSORS! https://ryanjespersen.com/sponsors The views and opinions expressed in this show are those of the host and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Relay Communications Group Inc. or any affiliates.
