Saskatchewan Round-UpSask Government Insurance, a crown corporation that provides insurance to all drivers in our province, is offering $180 rebates to safe drivers on their automobile insurance and lowering rates by an average of 5% as well (when we already have the lowest auto insurance rates in Canada – why do you think I love […]
We had an ultrasound today. Unfortunately they didn't provide VHS or DVD video nor allow us to record even a short clip ourselves (it is a diagnostic procedure after all.
