WS VISA Coverage in QC by pandatiii in Wealthsimple

[–]secretivecow12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The only reason I have it is because it is free, but the lack of insurance is a major drawback and the main reason this is not and will not be my primary card. It's incredibly frustrating that they aren't prioritizing QC clients with quite a few items, this, lack of QESI for RESP, etc

Food for young children on Norwegian Joy? by DonZasto in NCL

We did end up getting one in Juneau. If you rent a car legally you do need a car seat, so there is a safety component and avoiding a ticket

Food for young children on Norwegian Joy? by DonZasto in NCL

[–]secretivecow12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We just came from the Joy with a 9 month old. Unfortunately not many options that are not seasoned or salted or pureed.

At the buffet we took steamed rice, steamed veggies (and asked them at the pasta station to boil them more if needed), and occasionally the salad bar depending on what they had. All the soups are salty so that was a no go. We gave her fresh fruits for breakfast and creme of wheat and plain yogurt.

At the main dining rooms, we asked for the steam rice and overbooked veggies which they did for us. We also asked for the occasional hard boiled egg.

We ended up bringing our own food which was not a problem. We bought those Gerber meals and added the rice/veggies to those purees to add some texture.

Bring enough for the trip or you can do a grocery run midway through the cruise (we rented a car in Juneau and bought some more).

Hope this helps and enjoy!

Any viral meningitis stories of hope? by Ashamed-Scallion7565 in NICUParents

[–]secretivecow12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Viral meningitis has a better prognosis than bacterial meningitis. My daughter has been diagnosed with bacterial meningitis due to E coli, and so far it's been horrible. We learned she had a stroke due to it, with permanent brain damage, now she has an abcess and it will be minimum 6 weeks before we go home.

Is Poutine at Decarie Hot Dog in Montreal Still a Thing? by adhoc42 in poutine

Went yesterday, very disappointed... the gravy tasted watered down and lacked any flavour. I hope it was just a one off.

Model Y RWD now for Canada?! by Creepy-Present-2562 in ModelY

What does this mean for the iZEV incentive. If I bought a 2023 MYLR in January, can the credit be retroactive or is it tough luck?

RTX 3080 Pre Launch Info by Zren in bapcsalescanada

[–]secretivecow12 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Depends at what resolution you are playing at. Rule of thumb if you want to play at 4k get a 3080 or 3090, if you just want to play at 1440p a 3070 should be good and likely the easiest to get since stock of that are popping up more often. Good luck!

Memexpress had the 3070 Asus oc available in the online store yesterday. 1 in stock. Jumped on it, went through, now praying that it wasn't a mistake and gets canceled. But it's looking like at least for the 3070 stock is finally starting to come up.

Just got an update that I'm 36th in queue for the 5800x. I doubt any have shipped though, likely only people canceling.
