as a tourist, with no health insurance, full billing but it’ll be actual at cost, not the inflated number used down south for the hospital company and insurance companies to argue over. Broken leg, say, probably set you back 5000 Canadian depending. Similar to the states at final billing.

The smart ones make sure their insurance covers international travel, same as I did.

It’s when a jury decides the person charged did commit the crime, but they for what ever reason thinks under the circumstances, he should be acquitted anyways. When you do hear about it, it’s often in the context of some parent being acquitted for murdering a pedophile, that interfered with the killers kids.

no, try again. the point was more than clear.

I don’t even know what goes on anymore. I’ve had good health insurance in the USA for years (I’m a trucker) but have not had health insurance in Canada for 7 years (because I’m a trucker of no fixed address and health care is provincial, i pay income taxes to an entity that issues my driver’s license but denies i live there when it comes to my health insurance) My american health insurance doesn’t give two shits where i live. My drivers license is to a post office box near my employer of 7 years. I’m literally homeless but consistently pay taxes and reside in one county in one province with a steady employer but i just won’t lie so i don;t have “canadian” health insurance, which is never been my “birthright as a Canadian” like muttonhead socialists talk about, it’s always been provincially determined while the federal government pretends it wasn’t something that happened despite their resistance, when provincials had balls and thought of themselves as their region, not canadians.

“Why would we, he’s not a doctor, he only denies, doctors approve”

Hey look the Lemmy Ceo’s are looking to ban users informing other users about jury nullification because apparently that’s hate speech in Germany or some stupid bullshit.

fucking lol. someone get the new ceo.

Have you not listened to Canadian politicians, watched what they do? Literally everyone that is not one of them is a criminal, and they make sure of it. You can’t go a day without breaking 7 or 10 laws, you just hope not to gather attention. They let firearms license renewals submitted in the proper timeframe take 8 months to renew (not issue) so for 6 months a man can sit with a house with several “illegal” firearms hoping the RCMP aren’t bored enough to spin by. They came up with this crooked scam to “relieve” of us the GST for two months starting tomorrow, but because of the politicking and the canada post strike, no one knows what is and isn’t now exempt, normally people with a GST number get a letter in the mail clearly describing the deal. No, you can’t just go by the federal websites. They’re all bullshit and lies, you need to go by CRA letters you have in your hand, and you need those for proof later. I’m in a good situation, as my business, i simply set my prices accounting for GST, and add up everything GST applies to that I sold the end of the month, do the math on that number, send the feds a check, so I don’t have to fuck with any of my prices, just say that I’ve decided to increase my prices by 5 percent for the period, I can do that if I want. Nobody wants to see a bar suddenly make everything that was even numbers become 5.45 for a beer, 5.52 for a rye. This is probably criminal too, increasing my prices 5 percent to save an accounting headache. What sort of absolute fucking idiot does something like this on that short notice to buy goodwill? Everyone knows Trudeau is done no matter what, this narcissistic death spiral is pathetic. Just like everything the last 6 years, he does not care one bit what it does to anyone. I’m sorry, this ain’t really a reply to you, more a frustration rant i feel people need to see.
