Cool thanks, I’ll check if there’s a decathlon close to where we’re staying.

Interesting, I never realized it was also that slow to get in for the States. To be fair it’s not perfect here, surgery wait times can be really bad. I’m on a year long waitlist for deviated septum surgery and my dad waited quite a long time for a hip replacement and he was in a ton of pain everyday. But the thing is we also have the option to pay to get it done privately.

For sure, it’s definitely not perfect here, for example I’m on a year long waitlist for surgery for a deviated septum. But from what I’ve heard they get you in fast if it’s life threatening. I think in my case anaphylaxis can be life threatening so they got me in fast even though I was stable. We also have the option of paying for surgeries privately anyway if we don’t want to wait.

I had a medical emergency yesterday that may me realize how lucky I am to live in Canada.

I’m getting weekly immunotherapy allergy shots (which are also covered by the free healthcare here) and I had a bad reaction to a shot. They needed to give me 2 epipens and some ventilator drug and stretchered me in an ambulance to the hospital where I waited about 5-10 min (I was stable at this point) for a private room. They kept me there for like 4 hours with IV drip and prescribed me another EpiPen.

Total cost was 0 with no questions asked. I know for non life threatening injuries like broken bones you might be waiting a few hours to get in, but I’d rather it be like that then have the possibility of going in massive debt.

I think you’re living in an online Reddit bubble. I’m not an Elon fan at all, and most people in the real world don’t drive cars based on their political affiliation.Lots of CEOs of major car companies are slimy and have been involved in scandals.

I bought my model 3 for $50k CAD after incentives and tax which is expensive but not an absurd price, and have had 0 problems with it after 2 years and it’s an amazing car. I know about the quality control issues with some cars but the warranty is good. I’m pretty sure the oldest Teslas on the road are 13+ years old so I’m pretty happy I’ll get to drive it for so long.

Maybe I’ll start pretending to get mad at him for using it since cats want to be assholes like that 😅

Interesting, maybe I’ll try putting it up higher somewhere

Thanks! It’s actually a completely different fountain and spout type. The old one is a flower thing with no actual bowl, this one just comes out of a spout into a bowl. Last time I actually put the old one beside the new one and turned it off, and he would just lick the old water droplets off the spout 😓 but I’ll give it one more try and hopefully he’ll switch over.
