What risk? It's a PTO.

If you have a PTO, you should get that checked out at your local walk in clinic.
Unless ford shut it down.

lol and the fact that Ontario is short by about 3000 doctors plays a tiny roll, it’s just not really noticed in cities but in the northern area and smaller towns it very much is. So yeah, paying for a clinic without a doctor is flat out stupid.

That being said yes, he should get his Poor Team Obsession checked out for sure

That's what happens when you dont use the money the feds gave you.....I wonder where the money went for those doctors/nurses/clinics/hospitals? Ah yes, privatization, bud light in gas stations and a highway no one needs but built by his buddies.

Also, not sure any clinic can cure what scabeh may have....how did he get those fungi?
Was it from this?

You know what they say about toilets.

If we didn't have them, we'd be living in poop.

Patches is one hard check away from a motorized wheelchair.

Pass.

Actually not for my primary hospital. University Hospital in London still was doing things in an old school way and it was the doctors who brought it up publicly. Paying boat loads to people who work in administration even though nowadays computers and software can do it without them. Not even a couple weeks ago they fired 3 more people. One man making $600K a year, another making $450K and a woman making $275K all let go. Not one of them was a doctor, RN, or even a PSW. Just business types. We simply need to wake up and realize those folks are no longer needed, computers do what they did for free now.

I can’t complain, they spend a fortune on me, but thankfully on multiple neuro based doctors, surgeons, psychologists, RNs, and PSWs and not administrators. My doctors tell me to come right up to the floor and skip the entrance paperwork because it takes them all of a couple minutes to fill it out. Hell, even St. Joseph’s (owned by the Catholics) has private healthcare and they still have handled me for free. As I said, no complaints on my end.

People either have patience for healthcare or can pay to get it faster. I’m sorry but I have 2-3 seizures a month and a second lobectomy has been determined as of Aug 19th but I’ll happily wait since there’s no private healthcare that handles this. Even if there was I wouldn’t go get a loan to pay for it.

Privatized healthcare only works due to people’s impatience nowadays.

Ontario healthcare can be very confusing, and there's a lot of misconceptions.

Hospitals are not "owned" by the province. They are independent corporations - but they have to follow guidelines and standards set by the province.

St. Joseph's would not have any "private" offerings - except those that are not covered by OHIP.

For the vast, vast majority of procedures, you can't pay to get it quicker - unless you want to go to the US (or elsewhere).

This has been an Ontario Heritage Minute.

Ya not really interested in him.
I know Biznasty seems to think he'll score 30 with the leafs....but I really dont see anything close to that.....at all.

Not a political post - a stock market post.

Since market close yesterday, DJT stock has lost $3.25.

Donald Trump holds 114,750,000 shares.

So since last night, he's lost almost $400,000 in value.

And it looks like it's going to keep dropping.

Oh I know all this but it has gotten even weirder for me. For instance I didn’t even need to register or anything like that with St. Joseph’s. Once I proved who I was with ID they did the nuclear MRI and all the paperwork got sent back to the neurologists at University Hospital.

I’m thankful to be in Ontario where healthcare is covered. My last 16 day stint was in April/May this past spring and they finally figured out where my core epilepsy is. Took a SEEG since EEGs didn’t cut it. I have 7 types of epilepsy, 2 in the frontal lobe, 2 in the temporal, and 2 in the parietal lobes. All 6 of those however is caused by one primary epilepsy in the insula lobe and that’s the one they’re going after. That lobe is so deep that it doesn’t even touch the skull, but they have a wide opening to get to it due to the part that’s already removed from the temporal lobe so it should be a straightforward lobectomy.

I entered the hospital last April thinking I was a wise patient because I knew there was 4 lobes on each side and I was proud of that. Turns out there is 6, and one of the 2 new ones to me is the one with the issue lol. My pride got put into place pretty quick. At least the neurologists told me that unless I’m searching through very intense neurological info that students study that’s not info seen by many.

At least I know now and knowing is half the battle. The other half is apparently getting part of your brain cut out lol.

Trading because you’ve got Patches on a PTO seems like a bad idea. You only trade him if you prefer Bobby McBobby or Holmberg or you’ve got someone you like better in a trade. Timmins and Nicky R for?? kinda thing

Replace snapper with washer and he might be of some use to the leafs afterall

I see what you’re saying but here’s the question that I have about Robertson, who is only a point every other game type second rounder, nothing special.

Which line do you put that completely non-physical guy on? With Marner as the other winger? Nylander? Jarnkrok? When it comes to physicality for wingers on the top 3 lines all 3 options suck.
