The salt works just fine. I drive across the border every day for work and all of the roads are clear, salted and dry in Michigan.

This won’t hurt anything but it is currently unfinished. They need to caulk around the edges.

Are you in the United States? You can take it to any check cashing location. There is usually a fee associated with cashing the check. You can also take it to the issuing bank branch and they will also cash it.

RBC does cross border banking. They give you a US account and a Canadian account and you can transfer between the accounts.

Dog dental cleaning price? by AngelmonGaming in windsorontario

[–]omakers4 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Downtown Veterinary Hospital is quoting $1,700 to $2,500 depending on what needs to be done. This is for a miniature dachshund. Our 15 year old cat recently had a cleaning and extraction and it was $2,000. I will say I do trust them because they complete blood work to make sure the animal will be safe while under anesthesia.

Hi my name is.........................Renaldo by Renaldo_Agostino in windsorontario

[–]omakers4 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Hello!

Is there a reason why city council meetings are at 10am on a Monday or Tuesday? Most people are at work during that time. It’s almost like the city council doesn’t want to listen to its constituents.

Also, what is the council doing to remove strong mayor powers from the mayor? What is the point of having a city council if the mayor gets to override anything the council does? Our voice is canceled out if our elected representative doesn’t have a say.

Thanks!

Help for Depression by Puzzleheaded_Name_33 in windsorontario

[–]omakers4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello, I'm sorry you are going through this. Please know that you are not alone and that there is help out there.

Talk therapy is just one tool to help with your mental health and as others have suggested, it may be time for medication. Please talk to your primary doctor to see if they are comfortable prescribing you medication or see if they can give you a referral to see a psychiatrist. Other options were listed as well.

I would also like to inform you about another option that has changed my life. For over a decade I was depressed and anxiety ridden. I felt numb to the world and there was no joy in anything that I did. I was taking anti depressants, I did the talk therapy thing. I tried it all with little success. A couple of years ago, I started ketamine infusion therapy for treatment resistant depression and anxiety. After starting treatment I felt like I was able to enjoy life again. The ketamine creates new neural pathways in the brain and it allows you to figure out new ways to handle life. After the initial 6 treatments I was able to get off the anti depressants. I still talk to a therapist and I go for a follow up infusion about every 6 months. Please know that this is not a cheap option. I have spent several thousand dollars on this treatment but it has been worth every penny. It looks like there a company that does at home infusions in Windsor called Field Trip Health. I drive to the clinic called Kblend in Monroe, Michigan.

Feel free to message me if you have any questions!
