The "kids" are 55 and 50. Old bat. You missed that. We did have to pay a bit while the transition happened. Not sure how it worked out in other provinces. In-laws in Chicago were paying $600 when we paid $135. Just don't know why the US doesn't help its citizens was what I was trying to say.

$700 MORE? Per month? Canadian trying to parse this. Most we ever paid was $135/mo when both kids were at home. Keeping yr populace healthy is how to keep the economy growing (if that's yr only parameter) Why can't ThE leAdEr of tHe fReE wOrLd protect its citizens? =taxpayers=those what pay already

When I was in high school (graduated 1970) we had cadets. Not sure if this was a national thing or when it ended. Seems it might be a good programme to reinstate to help build a citizens' army.
