I mean I think they should be available easily and for free, but you ABSOLUTELY CAN get a PCR Test if you pay for one, there are loads of clinics where you can book them. It's seriously misleading to tell foreign press that they're outright unavailable šŸ™„

I haven't listened to the episode but the #FluTruxKlan in the title hints that you don't support the freedom of all Canadians. Or is this a comedy podcast and you are just trying to be edgy? Either way I support your right to abortion can you at least show me the same respect and accept my right to make my own medical decisions?

Flrst of all ā€¦ I love This podcast Sooooo Much but I couldnā€™t disagree more about this ā€œlineā€ā€˜that apparently can be crossed and Must be protected. Stopping a person from speaking doesnā€™t get rid of the sentiment it simply buries it and quite honestly stoked the fire burning From within it . You gotta talk .Listen and the go from there . If your action doesnt solve t he problem then itā€™s n out the best action .
