Oh ok, so you're a homeowner in Saskatchewan but you're complaining that you can't get insurance in a province you don't reside in? And you own a house after moving out of another province but you don't live in it? And I guess you didn't think that it might be a good idea to get coverage from the province where you own a house since it will work everywhere in Canada anyway... I nstead your thought process was that it would be at good idea to pay for both public healthcare through your Canadian taxes AND private coverage in the USA? I get that right?

Sounds to me like someone has been lying a lot to try and prove their point! How about building your opinions on facts for a change? Because right now either you're building a big pile of lies or you're the kind of person that doesn't let logic get in their way!

I'm not discussing my finances with you to any great detail, or reading that mess. I own a home I don't reside in, in another province, and that is a recent development as opposed to working in Alberta as a trucker 7 years with no health card.

So... You were living in Vancouver until 6 years ago but have been uninsured for 8 years but have started working as a trucker in Alberta 7 years ago and you now own a house in Saskatchewan but you don't live in it but you brag about owning it while also saying in other comments that you want to move to the USA...

So you could be covered under BC health until 6 years ago because you lived in BC (but decided to not be covered two years prior) and you own a house in Saskatchewan since not too long ago so you could be insured in that province but decide not to be for some reason...

Man, I'm not a detective but it sure does sound like you just got caught in a bunch of lies right there!

That's pretty much what happened give or take rounding dates to the nearest year. Late 2017 isn't 6 years ago anymore, nearly 8 now.

Oh ok, so you just decided to give up on any occasion to be publically insured and instead decided it would be a great idea to pay for US private insurance instead on a 65k/year trucker salary...

That actually explains a lot about this whole conversation.
