A brilliant past and bold future

The Medical Post has a rich Canadian history. At 60 years old, it has witnessed, reported on and celebrated many innovations, challenges and changes in medicine (and in publishing!).

Years ago we were a newspaper, printed weekly. While we’ll be looking back on our 60-year legacy throughout this anniversary year, today I want to focus on who we are in 2025. In contrast to the Medical Post of 1965, today we publish not only the magazine you’re holding in your hands, but also extensive digital content via our online home—CanadianHealthcareNetwork.ca—as well as our well-read Doctor Daily e-newsletter.

What hasn’t changed is who we are at our core: We’re journalists, 100% focused on helping Canada’s working doctors by curating and sharing the most relevant news, information and insights—and creating and supporting a community where physicians can share their sometimes-difficult experiences and their hard-won wisdom. As we celebrate our brilliant past this year, I am proud of our bright present and excited for our bold future—always with our original mandate to serve Canada’s doctors front and centre.
