Subcommittee on Sports-Related Concussions in Canada committee Thanks, Mr. Chair. I know how you don't like to talk about yourself, but Mr. Martel has started, so I'd like to continue. I think about you. I represent Dartmouth—Cole Harbour in Nova Scotia, so of course I think about Crosby quite often. You're both players who missed extended

Subcommittee on Sports-Related Concussions in Canada committee We had a young goalie in here a couple of months back who kept getting run. They would suspend the players who would run him. They would get their four, six or eight games, and they would come back and do the same thing. I hope I'm getting this testimony right, but my recollectio

Subcommittee on Sports-Related Concussions in Canada committee Yes, absolutely.
February 6th, 2019Committee meeting
Darren Fisher
Subcommittee on Sports-Related Concussions in Canada committee No, you're bringing up another interesting point. You say that if you make that 10 instead of three, you'll get rid of the fighters in the game. I've seen that change as well. Now you don't have a fighter in the game who's just a fighter, who sits on the bench just to fight. They

Darren Fisher
Subcommittee on Sports-Related Concussions in Canada committee You've veered a little bit from diagnosis into prevention. We have only a minute left, so tell me a little bit about some of the ideas you have for prevention, notwithstanding taking a break in May.

Darren Fisher
Subcommittee on Sports-Related Concussions in Canada committee Thank you very much, Mr. Chair. Thanks, Eric, for being here. We've talked over the past weeks about concussions, whether it be prevention, diagnosis or treatment. I know that you talk a lot about prevention. I was reading about Arthur Brown's research at Western, and I think

Darren Fisher
Subcommittee on Sports-Related Concussions in Canada committee If we're talking about treatment, diagnosis and prevention, Arthur Brown's work touches on treatment. I know you also have lots of ideas about prevention, and we can get to that in a second. I'm just thinking about diagnosis. Going back to something you said, just because you ha

Subcommittee on Sports-Related Concussions in Canada committee Thank you very much. Thank you so much, folks, for being here. Pamela, you spoke so quickly that I was scribbling things down as fast as I possibly could.
January 30th, 2019Committee meeting
Darren Fisher
Subcommittee on Sports-Related Concussions in Canada committee That's okay. You had such a wealth of information that you wanted to get out in a short period of time. Tell me about this bridge. You talk about Parachute as a bridge between research and policy. How does that work? Can you give us an example of what that looks like?
January 30th, 2019Committee meeting
Darren Fisher
Subcommittee on Sports-Related Concussions in Canada committee You talked about the importance of uptake of best practices. I assume those are best practices for identifying and preventing and for the treatment. I know I'm going to run out of time, but you mentioned “poorly managed concussions”. Maybe you can tell us a little about the suc
