  • Look, if you are looking to use reddit without supporting it, your best bet is to:

    -1 Browse with ad blockers so they get no revenue from you.

    -2 Never post anything. A post is free content for them. If you have to ask a question, delete the post afterwards.

    -3 Never comment on anything. Again, that’s free content for Reddit. If you have to comment, delete it after a few days.

    -4 Never up/down vote anything, or report anything. Reddit wants you to curate their content for free, fuck that!

    Wait times in the emergency room aren’t too bad. Its very heavily triaged so if you go in with a major emergency you will basically be seen immediately, but if you go in with something minor you might have to wait a few hours, especially if there are any respiratory illnesses going around. Children and elderly patients struggling to breathe take priority over an otherwise healthy adult with a wound that just needs a few stitches.

    Getting a family doctor can be difficult. There just aren’t enough to go around.

    Seeing a specialist will usually involve a long wait list (a few weeks to a few months depending on what they specialize in), so its best to book an appointment as soon as you can. You may have to travel to St.Johns so there might be some travel expenses. Growing up I had to see an ENT in St.Johns every summer for a checkup, so we just turned the visit into a camping trip.
