FYI, that means 15% of Canadians don’t have a doctor.

    I’m in the same boat. My doctor is on the other side of the city but I don’t dare lose him because I need him to constantly refill an important prescription that really should just be infinite because I have to take it for the rest of my life. Thankfully I can do a lot of it by phone now which takes a lot of hassle off both of us.

      Yeah I haven’t interacted with this doctor in literally a couple of years, but every time I call the pharmacy to refill me, the pharmacist faxes my doc, and lo and behold, the new script arrives. No idea why they can’t just make it refillable. No doctor will do it though.

        Stimulants? My doc tells me he has to be paranoid because basically if they found out that anyone took a single dose of amphetamine for fun, he would lose his license. Any other drugs, here, have a sack of them and a lifetime supply of renewals. But not stimulants.
