In BC the wait times are longer. But this is a symptom of the underfunding from federal and provincial governments. COVID was tough on the health care systems and they did a lot with what they had. Now should be the time to invest in the system and get it healthy again, but apparently more pipelines are the priority...

But overall I am satisfied for our system. It does not cost taxpayers an arm and a leg to fund it, and an emergency won't bankrupt someone. If you can get extended coverage such as with an employer then you pay minimal amounts for dental, medications, and paramedical services like physio or massage. From what I hear of the American system, I am shocked that there isn't some type of bare bones coverage for everyone. Sounds like a third world country from up here...

Not in my experience. Perhaps if you were charging at a location which charges an inflated rate. At my current electrical costs in Canada, electric is cheaper per kilometre.

How can one add social.bbc to my Lemmy subscribed list?

Consumers aren't causing inflation. Corporations are causing it. The issue isn't Canadians spending too much money on luxuries, they are spending too much on rent, groceries, and other necessities. Bank of Canada is kicking Canadians who are already struggling. What a giant fuck you to consumers. You are right, the government is responsible for not doing something about the corporate profits.

But raising interest rates is the only way Bank of Canada knows how to decrease inflation. It's obvious that the citizens are causing inflation that is hurting businesses. /s

I wasn't even able to stream it legally in Canada. The only way I could watch it legally was to get a cable subscription and a $15/mo HBO package. Fuck that!

WTH are you trying to say?

Stop looking at your friends genitals in the bathroom. Problem solved. Fuck your comfort, no one cares about your feelings. Let people use the bathroom for fucks sake.

I know your rage.

I ended up buying LED dimming stickers off Amazon and went hog wild on all the devices in the house.
