And he owned the feed store...not the chickens or the eggs.

Don't know. Just closed up the chickens for the night. Never thought to ask them.

Need more disks....

I had to travel 400 km one way (250 freedom units) to surgery and treatments and couldn't drive every day because I was all messed from the meds and radiation and stuff. That also would be 8hrs driving per day plus an hour of treatments which made me very sick. So... a hotel, meals, travel to see my family when not getting treatments (my youngest kids were 2.5 the oldest was 5), medications, ambulance trips, travel to see various doctors, parking, physical therapy costs there is a lot not covered by our healthcare system, then also home costs bills , rent, car payments, all the usual shit But no employment because I was paralyzed chest down for 8 months and hadn't worked for a year before that due to this illness.

Medical coverage in Canada means you won't get a bill from the hospital or your doctor. That's it. We buy all our own medications, pay for dentistry and vision care on a personal level. We pay for ambulances and specialty services not covered by the "system" sometimes even crazy priced specialty medications if not "approved" in our area. In fact in many cases we even pay out of pocket to have paperwork completed on our behalf for things like government programs aka "disability". Many jobs offer these benefits but being disabled I obviously do not qualify that way as I could not work and had just changed jobs when I fell ill, meaning I hadn't gained employer benefits at my new job yet.

Good. They should be questioning harder. As someone who is disabled and in this vulnerable group my question is this. If the Government wants me to exist why am I expected to live on less than $12000/year? That's less than half of extreme poverty for a single person in my province. Yet this is my sole income.

I am not permitted, even if I could, to work or volunteer for more than 10h/week or make more than $6900/year or I lose my CPP. I do not qualify for the disability tax credit because I am not disabled in the correct way yet I am deemed unfit for work by multiple doctors and the CPP office due to physical disability from cancer. I have 3 elementary aged kids and worked from age 14 to 18 part time and 18 to 42 full time when I got really sick and became disabled. I paid taxes and saved money. I spent our life savings surviving cancer 400kms from my home at the nearest hospital that could treat me and spent a small amount building a massive garden and greenhouse on land donated to us by family.

I served my fellow man as a paramedic for 15 years as well as other positions in different fields. Those afforded me no "pension" because paramedicine is a highly skilled yet low paying job with little to no benefits at my time of employment. I pay everything out of pocket because I do not have medical, dental or eye care coverage. I grow as much food as I can so my kids don't starve because I can't afford to buy it. I ignore my own health to keep them fed and housed. If I am "caught" or turned in for doing physical work at home regardless of my health I will likely lose my CPP. I have to do it though, I have no choice. If we hadn't been literally given this house we would be homeless. If we didn't raise food we would be very hungry. If we didn't have family supporting us I'm not sure where we would be but we would certainly be a larger demand on the system than we are now.

Yet I can qualify for MAID easily.

They want us dead.

Question it.

I've been physically ill lately and my brain is even more fucked than usual. This is happening on the regular now. Like multiple times a day.

I'm 7 days into a massive gallstone attack. I've been diagnosed and waitlisted for surgery twice now (Canada) but healthcare is falling apart here. I can't wait any longer. Yesterday I told the doctors if they won't do anything I will publicly commit suicide in a very loud and publicized way. I can't take this shit anymore. Its a 30 minute surgery and ive been having major problems since May. Our country is falling apart but the grocery stores and telcos are making more than ever so we're all good right....right?

The UK says so hey...

As a disabled person who does not make enough money to exist, this is how I see it for social programs as well. Keep the sick and injured in a constant state of anxiety and neediness until they finally break and ask for maid. It's easier to get maid than it is to be respected as a human being.

That being said, also as a sick/ disabled person I am glad maid does exist.

Same happened to us. Not as much data. But two 2TB.

Pirate it all or don't watch it.

Been living by this for decades since I learned from my highschool computer science teacher that it was even possible. I'm 50 now and I have paid only twice for tv and movies in my adult life.

"responding"

They're still hunting 90 year old Nazis. I do hope it doesn't come to that again. These young people risking their lives even more, to show the world what is happening and by exactly who is amazing and deserves justice now, not in 70 years.
