April 6th is going to stay with me having had the opportunity to attend the Dr.Bob Ewert Dinner this year celebrating its 10th year honoring its physicians service to the community.This year's keynote speaker was Col.Chris Hadfield. What a honor to have been there to hear this lovely, lovely man speak about his life experience not only as a dreamer but truly as one who had a dream from childhood and who saw it through to becoming an astronaut. To those of us here on earth who have been given the gift of his photography we marvel. For all the accomplishments in space and as a leader we appreciate his sacrifices and those of his family too..As a humanitarian and as a gifted humorous speaker we all say Thank You Chris you make us want to be better Canadians known for our stewardship of "our" earth. I have to say I hope that the physicians look at all the amazing women in medicine in the North and honor one of them as I did not see one woman's name listed as having been a past recipient.
