For National Siblings Day, here’s my sister, Dr. Eileen deVilla, Medical Officer of Health for the City of Toronto!

I didn’t want National Siblings Day to pass without posting this video of a TEDx talk by my sister, Dr. Eileen deVilla, who oversees Toronto Public Health, which is Canada’s largest public health agency and provides public health services to nearly 3 million people. It’s a big job, but Eileen’s more than up to the task.

In honor of National Siblings Day, and for those of you who haven’t met Eileen, check out her talk, in which she discusses the defining health crisis of our time: substance abuse and our archaic attitudes about it.

Happy Siblings Day, Sis!
