Re: Asthma/Inhalers

Asthma/Inhalers

Does anyone have an indication of how much inhalers cost in Toronto?

Do you need a prescription or can you buy without? Would I need to go to the GP for a prescription each time I needed a top up?...

Re: TV channels in Calgary

Why not use Kodi via an Amazon fire stick? Can be a bit temperamental at times but then you would only need decent internet rather than a full TV package

My advice- don't bother unless you have a TC lined up or very high prospects of getting one.

Re: Are we making the right decision?

I'd ensure we have sufficient savings too. Need at least $15k to move in the first place for PR. Need evidence of that prior to final application so plenty of time to save more afterwards too.

In terms of status we as a couple have enough points for PR based on the current draws (Providing I don't duff the language tests)
