8:08 am

Mist likely about iur chronic doctor shortages in smaller Canadian towns.
8:09 am
crosshair

Here, for example, there is not a single GP taking new patients within fifty miles of me.
8:10 am

8:22 am

Because it is eeasier and cheaper getting teeth fixed early, than having a hospital visit kater to get all your rotted teeth removed
8:23 am
