The government of Ontario is gradually replacing the Health Cards of all its residents. People older than about 21 years old had the older red and white health cards with no expiry date and no photo. Husband M has to go in and get his new Health Card with photo soon. You have to bring in 3 types of identification such as a passport, a driver's licence, a credit card and the original health card. Son K never had one of the old red and white ones, so his has a photo and has to be renewed periodically. The good news is that there is no cost to having the card replaced.

Love the to do list! Wow, they are actually doing something for nothing? A historical event! Have a lovely day, Valerie
Glad there's no charge.
That's a great list to have and follow. I wish the U.S. could have an equitable, effective health care system.
At least there's no cost to having the cards replaced. It sounds like quite a hassle. I remember my dad telling me he needs to renew his gold card (something given to pensioners here for things like cheaper travel) every years and admitting it was pretty much in case he died.
Nice list. Thanks for the reminder
Wonderful to-do list!
I guess that is what happens when the country has nationalized or socialized medicine.
What a lovely list. Practising kindness is a good one!
I love this list Christine!! Is perfect!!
xo
That's a wonderful list, thank you for sharing it. Interesting about the health cards.
Yes, this is really a wonderful to-do-list! I will print it out and take it with me to the office and keep it there for my personal well-being if you don't mind. Many thanks!
great idea Stefanie, I like #2.
That's a nice list Christine :-) Interesting about the Health cards.
That is a great To-do list!
Best to do list ever! :) My health ins. card has no photo on it, thank goodness, lol. My driver's license has one that's bad enough. I look kind of like a convict, and i've never even had a speeding ticket. lol
