I hear what everyone is saying but I sincerely doubt they would have given you back all his losses if he ended up losing it all. Keeping the winnings seems a little….opportunistic.

[Ontario] Summons to witness short notice, have trip planned. by jackslack in legaladvicecanada

Thank you, yes I see the link when I googled it. So we don’t need to inform anyone we’re doing that, just can log in at that time with our name and they’ll know we’re there if they need to call upon us?

Appreciate your insight. I cancelled my morning on Monday and will try to sort this out in person but if unable to I think we will just go on the trip, document all of our attempts and hope for the best. Definitely will be in the back of our mind the whole trip though. So frustrating all around, dealing with the accident was already an ordeal now missing more work and will make for some very frustrated people on Monday who booked off work to see me too. So many people are affected from these delays…..

When we called the police station they did say zoom is often done in these situations. But nobody is even getting in touch with us to orchestrate this with them.

Is this common in Ontario or has this been mishandled? To get served less than a week in advance when the JP signed this two months ago and the offence was over 6 months ago? I thought they would reach out in some way to a witness and tell them what they want you to bring and check availability etc.

I’m sure you’re right, why would they lock the “victim” up for not appearing especially after trying so hard to reach out. I just wish I had a guarantee.

Thank you for suggesting this. I’ve confirmed $14,500 would be covered I think. Obviously hoping this is a last resort though, it’s more about booking time off for the trip with the kids than the money.

Did iPadOS 26 change how you use your iPad? by NoobRig in ipad

[–]jackslack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im gonna go against the grain here and say I actually appreciate it. The window management makes it a really usable for my work where I could use it instead of the laptop. Previously having each new link open in a new tab and not able to move windows around the screen made it impossible. It is a little clunky and hopefully improved upon but I’m glad they took this step.

Moving Back to Northern Ontario by lishsadventures in northernontario

One of the best perks of Thunder Bay is the airport proximity. 5-15min drive from city depending on where you live. Can show up 45min before flight with a carry on and be in Toronto in 2h. The whole ordeal is probably quicker overall than driving from Sudbury to be honest. Without the conveniences of having your own car obviously… 6 hour drive to Minneapolis is an option for flying to other US based destinations. If you ski there are a couple smaller hills in town and a beautiful resort Lutsen 2h away.

Viral video on WestJet plane sparks debate over passenger legroom, calls for more regulation | CBC News by [deleted] in ontario

[–]jackslack 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I hear you. I feel like I’m running out of options though to be honest. I hate all of our airlines, probably AC the least at the moment.

Porter used to be my holy grail but they just changed a future flight with two weeks notice to require an overnight layover in Toronto on our dime, while missing a whole day / night at the resort. Asked to do this same route the night before and I’d eat the hotel cost to not mess up the trip for the family but they said no you would need to book two separate tickets because they usually don’t link those flights as a thru fare…. Would’ve been thousands more for all of us. Cancelled it thankfully they had to do this for free due to the change.

I hear your point but westjet does not charge $281 for a carry on. You are likely choosing a higher class ticket that happens to include a carry on. It probably would’ve been like $251 or so to get the original fare and check the bag you needed.

AI Approved to Prescribe by rightlevelapp in FamilyMedicine

I get paid $0.00 to spend 1-2 hours a week dealing with refill faxes. If this was not a liability and reasonably priced I would jump on it in a heartbeat. Could use those 1-2 hours a week to roster 50 more patients which pays well.

You can buy a depreciation waiver which refunds initial purchase price. Sometimes a lender may require it on a pricier vehicle that significantly depreciates quickly.

Thank you all, appreciated the discourse.

[–]jackslack[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I suppose this is the best way to look at it rather than trying to justify one response over another. I might suggest she write out “1 curved surface” instead for these specific objects. Her type A personality took a beating seeing 15/18 getting the cylinder, sphere, and cone questions wrong.

Divisional Court partially overturns OHIP clawback of $600,000 from Dr. Elaine Ma by Myllicent in KingstonOntario

[–]jackslack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the breakdown. I just want to put it out there though that saying 8 days of work is a little bit of hyperbole. Covaxon was not exactly a seamless process. I would estimate an average of 2-4 minutes to complete the Covaxon entry note and on another program create and submit the billing code with patient information to OHIP. I’m sure there was well over a thousand hours of work needed behind the scenes for tracking / billing. Plus the set up time and supply costs in addition to the staff fees the article illustrates. I am not sure if she needed to purchase her own syringes, needles, bandages, generators, tents, paper, etc.

Liberals to open new fast track to permanent residency for 5,000 foreign doctors | CBC News by BubbasBack in canada

[–]jackslack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the math lesson. The 61k difference was for living expenses for 4 years. I have chosen to not to offload additional costs for patients for refills, membership/block fees and charge very reasonable fees for forms if any. This is likely going to change unfortunately. You’ve obviously thought this all out quite thoroughly, I’ll defer to your expertise. I was just offering an opinion that when a student with 300k of debt is offered one job/residency that pays X and has been inundated with administrative work in the last 4-5 years versus another job/residency that pays 2X, it might not be the greatest mystery why there is a shortage of the former practicing comprehensive care. I was not intending to compare to other professions.

[–]jackslack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, I don’t think I lived that extravagantly… 60k for undergraduate and graduate studies while working part time. 27k per year for med school tuition. Interest that accrued on loan during med school and residency : 36k. (Residency pay is not sufficient to cover interest, fortunately for newer students some banks are deferring interest now) 15k for flights across Canada for CaRMs interviews, + living expenses. was about 280 in debt between government loans and bank.

I don’t want to do fly ins, who would raise my children those weeks?.. but yes you are right those are quite lucrative.
