Put down the scalpel and raise a fist

You've probably heard it said it's impossible to fire a doctor, but have you ever wondered: what would it take to make one quit? Turns out a major threat to the health of your town.

This week on White Coat, Black Art we spend some time with a group of doctors from a small town up - way up - in northern Quebec. When they caught wind of a plan to move in a uranium mine, they threatened to go.

Then from revolutionary to evolutionary...we talk to an Alberta physician who's spent years learning the art and craft of political activism in the cause of injury prevention. He's got some stories to tell, and some hard-won do's and don'ts to share.
