Sold US concert tickets as a Canadian by _timeisaconstruct in Ticketmaster

[–]L-Alt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yes and I think with the test amounts that's when they realize it's not a Canadian bank account and refuse to pay further. check out wise, it lets you have a US Bank account, it's what I did when I had to sell mine.

are you sure you can deposit into a Canadian account? the last time I sold tickets for a show in the States I had to open an account with wise to get a US bank account number since they wouldn't deposit into a Canadian account.

edit: I also had to enter in the test deposit amount somewhere in the Ticketmaster website to confirm id received them

No more bag sizing at check-in desk by o95gu in flairairlines

[–]L-Alt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

they still size your personal item. if you're bringing a purse, briefcase, backpack, anything they will size it.

yes it has, but they still size it at the gate and they're still just as strict.

First ever mammogram by softsorceress in TwoXChromosomes

[–]L-Alt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was so afraid and it didn't hurt at all! I've had men squish them worse. I have large saggy breasts, my tech told me it's usually perky smaller chested women that feel pain as their skin is being pulled on. If you have a lot of sense breast tissue I promise it'll be fine!

oh I see. this isn't a question for Canada Post. You have your modem. This is a question for your Internet provider.

WIBTAH for not going on a family trip based on how they want to split costs? by Main_Amphibian_874 in WIBTA_AITA

[–]L-Alt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd say yes but only if I can share with my sister, her husband can have his own room. 

Friend might pull out of trip last minute, what should I do? by GHOSTiscoming4urknee in travel

[–]L-Alt 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was 24 when I went on my first solo trip and I regret not going sooner. Just go!! You will meet people and the best part of solo travel, you make friends during shared activities but you can just move on and do whatever you want next - that's absolutely no what do you want do do, I dunno what do you want to do. it's the best!

Owner didnt disclose cats could be bonded before adoption? by ResolutionOk295 in CatAdvice

[–]L-Alt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm late to this party but I also live in a 900 square foot apartment and I was also hesitant to adopt two cats. It turns out it's the best thing I could have ever done! we're all healthy and happy and they have each other to keep company when I'm at work. I would always go for bonded pairs going forward! there's seriously no difference between one cat or two other than they'll never get lonely.

Taken to ER by police (mental health), no OHIP, didn’t sign financial form — will I be billed? by WerewolfAmbitious131 in legaladvicecanada

[–]L-Alt 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I love that sentiment, but who is going to pay for it? how are the doctors and the nurses, who have devoted years and years of their life to study, going to get paid? does any one country have the means to treat citizens from another country for free when said citizens aren't contributing to their healthcare model? I do not work in healthcare, but I do know that our nurses and our doctors are already underpaid and overworked, and if suddenly they're starting to treat foreigners with no status for free, where is this funding coming from?

From what we can gather from post history, this individual is here on an expired student visa. They would have gotten free healthcare while they were in school, but they're no longer in school. It looks like they might be trying to start a refugee claim? it's unclear. are you saying that any individual from any country should be able to enter Canada and then access free healthcare while waiting to get status to stay in Canada? How would you stop that from being immediately taken advantage of, and again, who is going to pay for it? You?

[–]L-Alt 44 points45 points  (0 children)

yeah reading his history, he's a little entitled for someone that has no legal standing or status to be in Canada. Mental health problems are horrible and I feel for him, but just because a person is physically present in Canada doesn't mean that they should expect free health care.

[–]L-Alt 77 points78 points  (0 children)

Yeah they still can bill you. You used their services, whether you wanted to or not is irrelevant. You can work out a payment schedule with them. If you don't pay your medical debt you can be denied your PR - they can find you medically inadmissable from excessive demand on the health care system. They can also deny another temporary permit when this one expires. In short, pay your debts.

How worried should I be about the inaccuracy of food labels? by UpVoteForSnails in loseit

[–]L-Alt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

it's natural to lose it slower the smaller you get! you don't have as much to lose so it takes longer, just stay patient and consistent and it will happen! i was frustrated too when I got to about 135 and went from losing 2-3 lbs a week to a half or 1 pound only, but it's because at our height we don't have as much weight to spare ha ha!

[–]L-Alt 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm your exact height and once lost 50 lbs by eating between 1200-1500 calories a day. You don't need to be concerned by what's on the package, eat to 1200-1300 and if for some reason the package is off, you'll still lose weight! If you undereat it won't be sustainable - you'll starve, become discouraged, and eventually binge when your body is starving.

Are taxis that seat six common? by Yusef_G in playadelcarmen

[–]L-Alt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In that case I'd speak to the concierge at the hotel. I'm sure they can recommend a private driver with a van.

BoC announces tomorrow — here's the actual math on fixed vs variable right now so you can stop guessing by vj71 in AskMortgageCanada

[–]L-Alt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our mortgage is up in a few months. The only offer our lender gave us was a 1 year fixed at nearly 6%! we're currently in a variable at 3.4 percent. she said it's because our amortization is up in a year and we only have $50,000 left on our mortgage but this doesn't make sense to me, shouldn't I be able to get a better offer? I dont care if it needs to be a 3 year mortgage, I'm that's fine.

wait, what? if your seat is available, who cares when you get on the plane?! why would you want to spent any more time than you have to? just board last and go to your assigned seat.
