The purchase of all ammunition or firearms requires the presentation and in many cases the verification of a valid firearms licence (PAL or rPAL).


The PAL and rPAL must be renewed every 5 years and if not renewed then any firearms in the possession of the individual will constitute a serious crime.
Colpy.....For brevity, I'm not quoting the whole article, wich I agree with BTW!


I'm looking at my Possession and Acquisition License renewed last last year, and on the back it states for both Possession and acquisition respectively


Non-restricted
Restricted



what gives with the rPal??

I'm not sure what you are asking.......but yeah, you have an rPAL, which means restricted Possession and Acquisition License.


Was that it?

It's obvious you never lived in the USA.

Our health care comes at a very high price and it's not all that great.

I have the Canadian Health care, but I also have Blue Cross in the USA.

Guess where I get the quickest and best service.. Not Canada

Sure I have to pay a co-pay of either $25 to see a doctor, $50 to go to urgent care and $100 for emergency.. Something I'd like to see Canada adopt to push people away from abusing the emergency for a head cold.








That`s nice for you to have that Yankee health option!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



And you claim that Cdn health care is "not that great"????????????????????


Gosh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Why dont we ask the 50 million Yankees who CANNOT AFFORD TO have ANY HEALTH CARE what they would think of living with the Cdn model???????????



Or we could ask the other 100 million Yankees who only have limited - meaning cheap and inadequate insurance plans what they would think of the Cdn model?????????????????????


Much of the population of the planet is willing to risk its lives crossing oceans in rickety boats or slogging across deserts in order to have a chance at Cdn health care!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



People who advocate in favour of user pay health care are BAD LIARS trying and FAILING to hide their GREED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


One really quick way to get more funding for improved Ontari-owe health care would to make our civil service union HOGS PAY the health levy just like regular people!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


One employed Cdn in 3 works for govt and THEY ALL HAVE THE SAME CLAUSE IN THEIR CONTRACTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Meaning that Ontari-owe does not collect a single penny in health care premiums from our gravy train riding HOGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


THE ONLY THING WRONG with Cdn health care is that we let LIE-berals manage it for way too long!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


The article you refer to STARTS OFF by saying "you MAY qualify for for free OR LOW COST Medicaid based on age or family size"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


So it STARTS RIGHT IN with the usual LIE-beral BAIT AND SWITCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


WITH no guarantee of anything!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



It then moves on to tell us that "even if you did not qualify for Medcaid in the past, YOU MAY QUALIFY now"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


So you still have NO GUARANTEE of anything!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Under Yankee Medicaid law you get to lay bleeding on a stretcher or fuming and fretting at home while your tumor GROWS and a bunch of stinking LAWYERS ARGUE about what treatment YOU MAY GET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Assuming they give you ANYTHING AT ALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


The document also invites citizens to fill out a Medicaid form - telling them this:



" When you finish the application, we'll tell you which programs you and your family qualify for. If it looks like anyone is eligible for Medicaid and/or CHIP, we'll let the state agency know so you can enroll"


And YOU REALLY THINK you will be able to sell this BAIT AND SWITCH CRAP to Cdns?????????????????????????????


HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Boomer I am going to guess that you did not BOTHER actually reading the form for yourself!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Otherwise you would not have been so STUPID as to try to defend your position with CLASSIC LIE-beral BAIT AND SWITCH BULLSH+T!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


I suggest to you that it will be a WHOLE LOT EASIER to make Cdn civil service union Hogs PAY UP their own health care levies than it will be to sell Cdns on this Yankee health CRAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


And how odd that you do not mention some of the Yankee health FRAUDS that have occurred over the years!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


My all time FAVORITE was the one where an HMO hired a bunch of high school kids to work a call centre and hand out health care advice to clients!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


As in - client phones up and asks: "I have this funny mole growing on me- should I go to the doctor about it"?


And the kid reads from the SCRIPT- designed to CUT HMO COSTS - telling the client NOT TO WORRY- give it 6 months and see what happens!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


While the client DIES of skin cancer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Or a client phones up and says "I am nauseated, and my left arm hurts- should i go to the emergency room"??????????????


And the kid reads from the script and tells the client its probably gas or indigestion..................why dont you sleep on it and see how you feel in the morning?????????????????


While the client DIES of a heart attack in the night!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Or a client phones up and asks: "my peripheral vision is becoming really blurry - should I go to an eye doctor"?????????????



And ther kid reads from the script and tells the client its probably just stress combined with high blood pressure - why not wait a few months to see if it fades on its own??????????????


So the client sits back and goes BLIND because of untreated eye disease!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



Society has a choice!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


It can build jails!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Or it can build hospitals!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


IF that society builds hospitals it will promote a more peaceful population AND LESS CRIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


As the Cdn experience PROVES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

How cute the ignorant leach thinks people care what he has to say..

Okay, it has just come to my attention, not sure it's true..

But you don't have a woman, you don't have a condo outside the Hat on a golf course, you don't have kids..

You live in your sisters basement living off your family..

Fukk even a bigger loser than I thought.


With Putz it's probably best to take Pete and Sleepy's advice. Bitch slap him once or twice a day and ignore him the rest of the time. He has to be made to look and feel important and when he's deprived of that he goes nuts!

You clearly do. You admitted to thinking about me, even when you aren’t on here...and look at how much you respond to me


Isn't it mostly you who is doing all the thinking about other people, Putzie. Recognize this list of your activities over the past two days, eh Putzie?

I've had visitors come to our hospital and after they leave, say that's the best care they've ever gotten, doctors were great, etc.

IMO, service in Canada v the US depends on where in the US and Canada you go.

Our health care isn't great, but compared to the US it IS better in a lot of ways with the most important being that people - regardless of economical status - can get help.


I know a lot of people who love the US model love it because they don't have to pay for everyone else but what tends to be forgotten is that everyone else is paying for you, too.


Sure, I'd love to see things reformed so that people who abuse the system are somehow taken to task about it, but how do you do that and do so fairly? Just how do you distinguish someone who 'abuses the system' vs. someone who needs genuine, continual help? Is the chemo patient coming in for continual fevers that don't amount to anything exempt from a pay system while a paranoid parent who brings their kid in for fevers all the time dinged for their paranoia?


It's not that easy a fix, despite how it seems to be.

It's not just people who abuse the system with continual 'unimportant' visits that breaks things down; fraud via medicare also happens a lot, especially near border areas.


How much is spent on Medicare/Medicaide cards? Why not charge for them? Why not lump them into the driver's license like what's done in BC, so there's also photo ID? When you pay to renew your license, you pay also for medicare admin fees? Thing is, you can't, it's WAY more expensive, despite how good an idea it seems.


The solution for health care isn't that easy. The biggest thing people can do to help reduce wait times and abuse of the system is to LEARN. Go to your pharmacist for advice. Have an earache? Hot cloth and sleep on it until the next AM. Vaporizer/Humidifier or whatever you want to call it for dry coughs/sinus issues. Warm baths to bring a temp down. Hell, HAVE TYLENOL ON HAND. So many don't even have that when they have a fever. They come in and when asked about it, they say 'no'. Same thing with pain relief. Educate the public, TEACH them what to do about the simple stuff.
