GRS Montréal does nothing to keep that monopoly they’re simply the only provider for that type of care in the province and the province doesn’t care enough about us to invest in a public solution. We’re a niche population with niche needs and so they believe it’s fine to handle us this way.

Was I treated well at GRS? Yeah. Did I wish I had options for such a life changing surgery? Absolutely. I would have chosen another type of surgery if it was available.

But in the end, to me, the main issue with trans care in Quebec is more about the blind spots in the coverage than the monopoly of GRS Mtl…

I’m from Quebec and everyone was angry at the ruling. it’s absolutely ridiculous how the OQLF will make stupid decisions like that, an absolute waste of time amd money for everyone involved.

Haha, I want to believe the thing just guesses what you buy 😂

The only time it’s ever useful for me is when I have to come in and grab 2-3 things fast.

I hate that it basically kills cashier jobs and I hate having to do a weekly grocery on them because of how shitty the systems are… It’s to the point where I’ll avoid places where there’s no cashier the day I do my grocery or do it online and pick it up or get it delivered.

I got the dude tagged as “I Am Very Smart” don’t remember when I added it but looking at his comments history, I can see why…

I have kids, what is this clean floor you speak of?

Absolutely disgusting. Send that to the press…

Regardless of people’s average experience I’m gonna say : Don’t bring electronics you don’t want searched. https://www.cbp.gov/travel/cbp-search-authority/border-search-electronic-devices

Yeah what’s happening there is absolutely insane and is just the tip of the iceberg because it gets a bit of news coverage during fishing season

Yeah I just hope Desbiens stays healthy but Poulin has been her usual self and Stacey is on a streak. The new girls are great too.

Still mad about Vanisova going to Ottawa but at the same time a more balanced league is probably better for the sport.

Can’t wait to see what are gonna be the expansion teams!

I support the Montreal Canadiens, my team is 100% canadian owned, I watch it on canadian broadcasting, I refuse to watch it on american channels/prime.

I also support the Montreal Victoire, the Trois Rivières Lions, the Blainville Armada, The Laval Rockets, the Canadian National team etc Outside of hockey, I also support my local basketball / football teams and am looking forward to follow the Roses inaugural season

Local sports channels like TSN / RDS rely heavily on the NHL to stay viable so by saying let’s drop our support for the NHL, you’re also advocating hurting these channels which in turn removes cash flow from them to support smaller events.

You want to support Canadian sports, please do. Go see your local games, advocate for more air time, follow teams and share on social media but until a true contender to the NHL comes, one that banks on Canadian teams only, the NHL is where men professional hockey happens.

It’s shit but it was also really bad that they had to use that. We need our own infrastructure for stuff like this.

In Quebec the Minister of Housing is a carreer realtor. It’s going exactly like you would think it would. They fought against rent control, they removed safeguards and they made the housing crisis worse and they’re calling it a win while blaming the bad on the Montreal mayor because she called them out on it.

Yes, next question

I’d check the refurbished stores like secondcell.ca, reebelo.ca, mobileklinik.ca etc

Honestly, I think it’s time to call for separation of politics & journalism and ban news outlets from endorsing political candidates like this.

It’s a live stream extract not a polished youtube video…

I never understood who has time to actually go to rallies

In Quebec I use Impôt Expert which was developed by the same company as TaxTron. There’s an english version of the tool called Ufile.ca

Haha right? A broken clock is right once a day and stuff
