A Horrifying National Post Article - Dr Sue's Radio Interview on Obesity Stigma

I was asked to interview on the Kingkade & Kelly radio talk show this week, in response to a recent article in the National Post.  The article, titled (brace yourself) 'Fat acceptance is not the answer to obesity', states that (AND I QUOTE):

"Doctors rightly resent spending time and expertise helping people whose health problems are self-inflicted"

and 

"health professionals who judge their patients are doing them a favour"

Really??  REALLY??  The National Post should be categorically ashamed of themselves for publication of such complete and utter trash.  I had a mouthful of things to say about this topic (as I'm sure you can imagine) - check out the recorded interview here!

I welcome your comments.
