20-22 NEW patients a day. Even at 10 mins a new patient appointment that is three &half hrs work. Even if it was 20 mins an appt that would be 7 hrs a day. there is no way that one dr is seeing 35-50 ppl a day. Drs are paid for 10 mins approx. 50 pat would be over 8 hrs. ( Nurse&lab do 12 hrs)

Talena @surelyyoujokeme.bsky.social We will all be explaining it to our children and grands and great-grands. The powers-that-be of a major nation, a global empire in all but name, have signed on to the destruction of the assets, economy, reputation, and global position of their own nation.
I’ve spent almost a month in MENA & Europe, & from the outside, the US looks like a completely unhinged country. As a French friend put it, “it’s like a blinded Cyclops lurching around & destroying everything around him.” Not sure if we, at home, appreciate how totally crazy we look to the world

I dont believe a word Eby Says. Also, fast tracking foreign Drs isnt a safe answer to our situation. Every country has Different levels of education & if they cannot Pass Canadian Standards, i personally dont want them here. btw i've recently discovered my career=5 yrs classes is only 1-2 in USA.

Honestly i have a hard time with considering this Getting back to your roots & culture. Its not "First nation identity" to get into 4x4s, grab your rifles & pack Camping gear to go Hunting. I've found that ppls are happy with cultural appropriation when it goes one way.
Happy Turkey Day to all my fellow Canucks. Hey did you know Canada celebrated Thanksgiving first — in 1578, led by English explorer Sir Martin Frobisher, which is 43 years before the 1621 Pilgrim Thanksgiving in Plymouth, USA prnt.sc/U2oB2sRxthBg

How would Mayor and Council candidates in Nanaimo balance providing and upgrading essential infrastructure and services with rising property taxes and cost pressures? Most agree taxes are too high, but differences exist on how to address it. #Nanaimo nanaimonewsnow.com/2026/10/09/k...
