Medic8teMe@lemmy.caOPto Canada@lemmy.ca•Disability tax credits are critical for some Canadians. But applying for them can cost thousands4·8 days agoI was confused as it costs nothing but “enormous amounts of time” and back and forth with doctors to apply.
With the right doctors. This is a key point.
Doctors who can see your disability and how it affects you and speak to that. Generally that is specialists in your illness or disability. Specialists we are seriously lacking in this country and who are difficult to see at the best of times even as their patient. Wait Times are months and even sometimes years in parts of the country to see a specialist in certain feilds.
There are so many problems with this system and unless people are directly affected they have no idea or enough space in their overloaded day to care.

That’s the dramatic first sign. We best get organized now. Rollback of rights is next and already tabled.
Nay. Good soil practices will balance your problems themselves. Allow proper soil maintenance to maintain your biome and you will have less problems with insects and disease. No till. Beneficial bacterias. Effective microorganisms. Home made made fertilizers, composts and teas (Korean natural.farming techniques).
Grow good soil with active ingredients and bugs and it will do the work for you.
Medic8teMe@lemmy.caOPto Canada@lemmy.ca•Officials defend Liberal bill that would force hospitals, banks, hotels to hand over data14·15 days agoI’ve sent six emails to my MP since the electio. Zero responses. My MP is even indigenous, sits in the governing party and has all the historical and current reasons to fight. I guess the bank deposits are too good to give a shit about much more.

I hate how fucking brilliant that was for the population that exists here because people are too stupid to see the actual truth.

Medic8teMe@lemmy.caOPto Canada@lemmy.ca•N.S. premier says municipalities who want funding must allow 'economic development' after uranium concerns5·17 days agoAnd pointing out exclusively how much money his government has funded to that particular county. Maybe a little passive aggressive but that’s the Nova Scotia way after all.
Perhaps we can read between the lines a bit and not give our elected officials carte blanche by interpreting ourselves but instead insisting they clarify the meaning of their words.

Medic8teMe@lemmy.cato Gardening@lemmy.world•How to defend high windy balcony from aphids?English52·2 months agoYou can make an insecticide from spicy peppers onions, ginger and garlic boiled in water to extract the oils. Chop and smash the veggies good first to help release the juices. Add them to a pot and bring to a boil then simmer for half an hour. Careful it makes your house smell delicious.
Strain, cool and add to a spray bottle. The oils and capsicum will burn all soft shell insects. Add a drop of dish soap for best results the surfactants help hold it to the bugs but it isn’t necessary. Spray plants liberally a couple of times a day making sure to get in the branch crooks and under leaves as well as the soil surface.
It works especially well for aphids and spider mites but be assured it will kill good bugs too. Insecticide is insecticide regardless of what it is made of.
Also Canadian. I bet you can extend seasons depending on what you are trying to grow. A small cold frame would be beneficial for greens, brassicas and other cold weather crops. We grow these year round. When we were in the city I made some from some old pallets and a window I picked up in alleyway junk piles.

Just having that presence and national media time could vault a proper leader and party forward with the savings from staffing and offices near but not on the hill and could be very beneficial for the right small party. Getting there is the hard part. Grasping it and making it work, hasn’t happened yet.
Hopefully it’s in the American regime and we never see him again. Opps…was that out loud
That’s why you marry a gardener! Our place is insane. Hahaha
Medic8teMe@lemmy.cato Canada@lemmy.ca•Mark Carney makes final pitch to voters: ‘Is Pierre Poilievre the person you want sitting across the table from Donald Trump?’2·2 months agoI hope the lack of election signs in my riding are a sign that the usual con voters are not voting con. Lots of lifers here.
Just a few years ago in Nova Scotia we had a mass shooting where the shooter disguised himself as an RCMP officer. Loads and loads of problems during that incident were caused by the RCMP and not the gunman likely because they couldn’t work out wether they should hide what was going on to protect their own or actually try and stop the incident. ACAB all day after all.
Nothing changed and now…let’s offer up more power to a corrupt organization that was established as a genocide machine and currently is racist, misogynistic, sexist and authoritarian as the true level of the law.
