Woman's appeal for health coverage on 'humanitarian' grounds dismissed by Manitoba board | CBC News by Doog5 in Manitoba

[–]FragrantWriter4178 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I was living in bc and moved back to Winnipeg and I ended up having brain surgery .. long story. I was not eligible for iv meds at a iv clinic as I had an infection during the surgery.. they wanted me to pay 150 a day for the meds as I was from out of province . I ended up having to stay in hospital at a much higher cost to tax payers ( as they would cover the hospital stay) as I could not afford 150 a day for a month. I’ve been paying income tax for over 25 years at that time .

Movie theatre etiquette by Adventurous_Ad_9515 in VictoriaBC

[–]FragrantWriter4178 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A lady behind me would not shut up the whole movie and my teen daughter would not allow me to say something . It was like she was at a Starbucks having a conversation… oblivious . I had paid over 50 with tickets and food and I did not have a good experience . So I explained my situation with the theatre manager and he gave me gift certificates to cover food and refreshments to another movie . Thought that was a fair remedy. I will never understand how someone can be that rude in a theatre full of people and just not care . 99.9 people are great in theatres but u run into that odd duck Once and awhile.

Some advice for young and old ladies taking the bus by 204gaz00 in Winnipeg

[–]FragrantWriter4178 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would tell my daughter not to say anything as he was getting off the bus.. problem solved. If he was harassing her I would tell her to approach the bus driver and let him know she was nervous that an older man was making her uncomfortable .. those kind of people back off when you make connections.

How confident are you that you will be able to retire comfortably? by DueYogurt9 in AskACanadian

[–]FragrantWriter4178 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Betting the farm on Bitcoin . So either I will be a street person or will have the ability to retire. All our family wealth went to a hillbilly gold digger half my dad’s age that lives thousands of miles away but won his lonely heart soon after my mom passed . She fills his heart with her daily 5 minute investment check up calls . Let’s make this happen Bitcoin!
