That's fair. I should have been more accurate since Canada is a gigantic country. My experience is based on living in Vancouver and Montreal (although I went to a hospital in Toronto on one occasion and waited only 30 minutes).

This is a great service but it seems unfortunate that it has to exist at all. The health system in Canada isn't ideal (or the Netherlands where I am now) but having to check emergency room wait times has never even occurred to me.

I'm not an expert on the matter, but my understanding is that rooftop greenery is a cheaper and more effective way to reduce cooling in the summer and heating in the winter.

I was disappointed that the only reference to Ronco was the title. Can we make turkey jerky now?

You can save individual pages from a PDF as an image in Preview (scroll to the page, File -> Save As). This won't work if the PDF is protected but that would likely apply to other applications too. You can also create PDFs from images w

I agree to the extent that the article argues that a higher quality product deserves a higher value. I think the article is actually quite sympathetic to journalists One of the reasons I said the article was confused is that it's not clea

First of all, the article speaks of journalists as a homogenous group which is ridiculous since they are neither created equal nor do they act as a single group. It then describes only one aspect of journalism and devalues all roles journal

The introduction talks about "networking whores". The last line is, "[D]on’t expect your networking to pay off within a few weeks or months, it can take years before you see a ROI" . When do friendships ever "pay off"? Thinking in terms of

You hit the nail on the head, except for the copying part. Amazon was already 1 - 2 years ahead of it's competition. This announcement extends that distance and puts a lot of pressure on the third-party commercial tools. There's still value

I agree and I would also check the contract for an "Entire Agreement" clause which basically says that side agreements, whether verbal or written, are not considered part of the agreement.
