POLITICAL AMBITIONS OF SOME ONTARIO DOCTORS

 Dr. Nathan Stall, a Toronto based geriatric specialist has announced he’s running for the Ontario Liberals in the next election.

Stall is doing this after spending months courting media attention on a range of topics well outside of his specialization but where he dutifully repeated Liberal talking points and attacked PC Premier Doug Ford without revealing his partisan ties.

The case of Stall is even worse because he’s also a member of Ontario’s Science Table, even acting as “assistant scientific director” for the body. Close observers of politics will know that the Ontario Science Table is a self-appointed, and self-important, body of doctors and researchers who pushed themselves into the discussion of how to handle COVID in Ontario.
