I just moved to BC and have no medical/dental insurance yet. Last week I had to pay out-of-pocket to see a dentist and got a prescription for antibiotics. I paid less than I ever did in the US where I did have insurance. Less than CA$100 to see a dentist, get an xray and the prescription. Mindblowing.

Wow. Good for you though! I hope BC keeps treating you well!

Thanks! So far I am loving it. Real test will be when the kids start school next week :)
