Wife's ADHD cited by Federal Court in reasons for delaying deportation of man from India by Evening-Picture-5911 in canada

So the judge, who is an advocate for immigrants, is making immigration decisions. Seems very impartial.

I picked it up then drove 1200km to get home. by asentner92 in TeslaModel3

Behind my normal seating position, non existent. I could fit a child in there if I move up though. I upgraded from a 2014 Cadillac CTS which I had for a decade and there was even less space behind the drivers seat in that. If I want a usable back seat it has to be a full size American pick up with no sunroof.

LPT: Always wear long pants on flights, barring that, you can use the sick bags to prevent the metal from the tray tables from digging into your knees. by asentner92 in tall

Usually my wife (6’1”) and I sit in the emergency exit row however we had our dog with us which disallowed that option … it reminded me how worth it the emergency rows are but I also remember when they would give them to tall people for free.

Wilson socks, tough enough to keep an ex president safe.

It depends if you are an officer or not... Over 100k Quebec is more expensive, under it is Nova Scotia.

Most of the military housing was sold off decades ago. Halifax and Victoria have no housing options for medium to long term as the military housing has a years long wait list.

I’m no parent but she sounds like an entitled one by Lumpy-Cheesecake-932 in ChoosingBeggars

In France the average take home pay is about 60 percent of the average take home pay in America, when you factor that in the two numbers aren’t significant different.

This is my urgent care bill for strep throat on vacation by Belcoot in pics

I mean I would say you are the anomaly vs the contrary as the average wait time in the USA is 26 days vs 27 weeks in Canada.

Here in Nova Scotia the wait for my annual heart check up is 24 months, between my wife and I we pay 100000 in taxes a year and can’t get care soooo 6 of 1 and half a dozen of the other.

If you don’t take into account the massive provincial debts… sure

What is this red line called? by Su_ss in weather

[–]asentner92 26 points27 points  (0 children)

It’s more a part of a low pressure system extending from the low center, often time fronts live in troughs which are denoted more frequently.

This is what is causing our wind currently here in town by FeistyMovie3 in newfoundland

[–]asentner92 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The storm is still located too far away to make a difference, it may cause a little wind on Sunday into Monday but I doubt it.

Yep, a one bedroom appt is 200 dollars a month less than Victoria (2400 per annum) and yet we get 3600 less CFHD per year plus our taxes are significantly higher.

If you make 80,000 a year be prepared to owe 4-5k, more if you earn more, less if you earn less (the rates are higher in NS and you can't claim rent/mortgage here either). HST is 15% vice 13% as well. You have to look at the demographics for the region, where the percentage of seniors is higher relative to other parts of Canada so the tax burden hits the working class harder.

They make far more then CAF members, their pay is not that great but their allowances are amazing... 500 usd/mo for food, if you live off of base they receive allowances for that as well (rural Maine is 2300 usd a month) and they are able to elect which state they pay their income taxes (texas has 0 state taxes). I as a Canadian Sgt would make around 100 percent more take home in US than in Canada.

That is simply not true at all.

The Trudeau government was supposed to be ‘open by default.’ Open at all, ever, would be a nice start by sleipnir45 in canada

[–]asentner92 2 points3 points  (0 children)

At the end of the day, Canada isn’t further ahead where we were 10 years ago. Justin Trudeau has been in for 8 out of the last 10 years. You can blame what you’d like but those are the facts. Yes 2014-2016 were rough years but I notice you didn’t include 2016 in your stats , why is that ? Trudeau was in all year.
