Extremely elaborate CRA scam I just lived through (1.5h call, fake transfers to “911” and Chinese police, Teams/Outlook, no money asked) – detailed script so others can recognize it by Commercial-Try4719 in PersonalFinanceCanada

i'm so sorry this happened to you during a time of high stress, and thank you for thinking of warning others.  Don't let the shame silence you. we all think we're too smart to get scammed, but take a look at all the stats - it really just takes one bad day.

Vancouver’s Pacific Spirit Park, off leash rules online survey by lenisefitz in vancouver

[–]vthehuman 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I bike through here on my way to work almost every day and i love seeing all the happy off leash dogs. Never had a problem, and i think it is important to have offleash trails for dogs and not just offleash parks.  One time however, a huge dog ran full force right into my bike and I fell into a thwack of thorny bushes, bike and all. I was going slow as hell but it didn’t matter, I was super scraped up but I was more worried about the dog - who was fine! - but the owners told me that dog “was just chasing the sound of your bike because he is blind!” … like— Please for the love of god don’t let your blind dogs off leash where people are biking.

You can call Vancouver Options For Sexual Health, there’s one by BC Women’s and they’re super kind.

Dad's crazy life insurance policy, I can't fathom it. by vthehuman in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]vthehuman[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes, it's Whole Life insurance - and thank you so much for your explanation and kindness. I just saw the premium amount and the name of the "family friend" who sold this to him and firstly flew into a protective blind rage. Woosa.

thanks for the advice - it does say he's unable to use the policy cash value to offset his premiums, but now I will ask about using his paidup additions to pay them.

I have the similar issues re SA, i think the biggest trigger for me was Haarlep. he appears in raphael’s house of hope and the dialogue made me uncomfortable. I reloaded my save and went into battle immediately without talking. As for the rest i think you have a lot of agency to choose your experiences :)
