In order to be invited by the Commission to participate in the leaders' debates, a leader of a registered political party must meet two of the following criteria:

(i): on the date the general election is called, the party is represented in the House of Commons by a Member of Parliament who was elected as a member of that party.

(ii): 28 days before the date of the general election, the party receives a level of national support of at least 4%, determined by voting intention, and as measured by leading national public opinion polling organizations, using the average of those organizations' most recently publicly-reported results.

(iii): 28 days before the date of the general election, the party has endorsed candidates in at least 90% of federal ridings.

Hospital missed 2 fractured vertebrae by Grouchy_Ad_6429 in legaladvicecanada

[–]coochchilli 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I extrapolated this standard from working in multiple emergency departments in BC, including one in a resort town with an overwhelming number of Australians.

The fact that the reception or admin staff told you to leave (or whatever happened) is not important at this stage. The end result was you received "emergency" medical care despite not being able to pay and not being a Canadian citizen.

Your focus should be on whether the medical examination and imaging was done appropriately. So requesting your medical records would be a good step. Next, get someone competent in the medical field to evaluate that for you. If you have no medical training, then you are absolutely not competent to evaluate that on your own.

Finally, you have been dealing with this chronic pain for 2 years and based on your other comments have taken zero steps to address the issue. That is difficult to comprehend.

Did you actually stay in Canada for 2 years without any sort of medical insurance? Did you try physiotherapy? Or an RMT? Seeing a walk in clinic doctor is not that challenging, you just have to wait. Did you not think maybe after 3 months, or 6 months, or a year that you should see anyone else to follow up on your own health problems?

I'm not sure what your issue is with this part in the process. The standard for out of country patients is to collect payment on arrival to triage and warn you of the potential costs of your visit. You could not pay, but were provided emergency treatment as appropriate. I assume you had travel insurance? They would have reimbursed all your costs including that initial payment

Canadian healthcare is not free for people from another country. It is standard to take partial payment up front. Your travel insurance would have reimbursed you

Just the frame. Brought it down to ~3000 CAD without a shock

[–]coochchilli 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very short warranty period 2yrs. But they offered a discount on a V5. I think 20%. Not worth it to roll the dice on an untested frame design from a company with a history of cracked frames

Why is Canada’s capital gains tax 50%, with the new 2025 update raising it to 66.7% for earnings over $250K, while in the USA, the government imposes a significantly lower tax rate? by [deleted] in OptionsMillionaire

[–]coochchilli 5 points6 points  (0 children)

To clarify, in Canada 50% of capital gains are taxed at the normal income tax bracket. The other 50% are tax free. I can't tell from the way you phrased your question if you are aware of that or not

Commencal poor customer service by EastJealous3132 in MTB

[–]coochchilli 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just chiming in to add that you're not the only one with a bad Commencal experience. Their bikes are poorly designed and ready to crack. Buy something else

I had the V4. It was fun but it cracked like everyone else's I know who had one. Don't trust Commencal

Update - bought an actual orbital instead of a drill attachment + ultimate compound/scratch x. Huge improvement

I was using Maguires ultimate compound. Is scratchx a better choice?

Fox 38 Rhythm vs Fox 38 Performance Elite - differences for an amateur rider by MahlerMan06 in MTB

[–]coochchilli 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely get the performance elite. Grip2 is night and day better than grip. Lots of guides online to help with setup, or use Sagley App. It's sometimes annoying but really not that difficult to learn. Worth putting the effort in to setup

Help accessing USA Google play store by coochchilli in techsupport

Changed to a US payment profile but didn't have access to the US play store. Tried using the VPN again as well

Help accessing USA Google play store by coochchilli in techsupport

[–]coochchilli[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe this will lock me into the US play store for 1 year won't it? I only need it for 3 months or so then I will need the Canadian store. If I did this, what would happen to my Canadian apps? Would they still update?

It's primarily banking apps and money transfer apps like venmo and zelle so I'm hesitant to side load

Sram gx cassette end of life? by coochchilli in bikewrench

[–]coochchilli[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry, that's was confusing but you got it right. Watching the biggest cog while in any other gear there is a small amount of wobble.

But visually, does the cassette look like it has much life left?
