In Canada, when you have to go to the doctor, do you make an appointment or can you walk in? My doctor does both. Do you have a co-payment on your health plan, or is it totally free? I have varying co-payments, depending on service provided. When you go to the pharmacy to get a prescription...

And why? I got a lovely Dell notebook, and I still have to buy it some accessories, but I don't mind since it was free. I like electronics better than almost any other gift. The grandkids liked the digital piano I got for them. Not only is it a player piano, but a regular piano - or you can...
