Strange - didn't get one. I used curbside pickup during the last go-round. Appointment would be interesting for me - I usually spent a lot time wandering around just drooling.I just received an email from Lee Valley. They are closing their stores to instore shopping for two weeks and are moving to curbside and shopping by appointment only.
I am seeing so many posts of people who say they spent two hours refreshing the portal and then finally luck out and snag an appointment earlier than March. I have put myself on multiple wait lists and heard nothing while at the same time seeing people post they got an appointment at those places I am waiting for. It’s truly a crap shoot.This is exactly the problem, why does it take one to hunt everywhere and on multiple platforms? Technically one should be able to book and view all the options via the provincial since but it’s not the case. I still do not understand why some hospital networks have different booking systems.
Addendum: I took a browse at Vaccine Hunter’s Twitter page. Unless you are on there 24/7 (which most people aren’t), have time to browse through all the tweets and can drop everything on a moments notice, it’s pretty useless for a lot of people.
Addendum: according to a family member, the provincial site still hosts some deadend links for vaccine bookings. Eg. One of the link requires you enter your postal code and then will bring you to a page telling you to go to your public health unit’s site. Whereas another link will allow you to enter in your healthcard details and provide the closest vaccination sites.
This is because Doug Ford does not want the province doing the work. He still believes that "businesses" can do no wrong. Having one site for vaccine appointment is against his "business" mind.This is exactly the problem, why does it take one to hunt everywhere and on multiple platforms?

Man, I wish we would take a look to other countries like Estonia for guidance on this. Yes, Estonia. They have a Once-only policy in regards to information; the idea being that you should only ever need to enter or give your information once in the health system.Addendum: according to a family member, the provincial site still hosts some deadend links for vaccine bookings.

Actually, I would say that having a vaccine centre in a strip club shows that the vaccine system is NOT "f-ed up". It surely shows that (even if the vaccine BOOKING system is 'poor') those responsible for offering vaccines are flexible, on top of things and think outside the box!In case anyone missed this yesterday…
Our vaccine system is so f-ed up, that a *strip club* stepped up to provide barrier-free walk-in vaccinations.
A STRIP CLUB.
Toronto's Filmores hosts low barrier vaccine booster clinic
The iconic marquee outside Filmores Gentlemen’s Club looked a bit different on Monday as the strip joint played host to a pop-up vaccination clinic. Dozens of people lined up outside the club on Dundas Street in hopes of getting their booster shot. The one-day clinic is being operated by...toronto.citynews.ca
The Provincially run part of the system is not barrier-free. That's the f-ed up part of it. The province itself will only inject you if you supply an OHIP number, immigration status, etc.Actually, I would say that having a vaccine centre in a strip club shows that the vaccine system is NOT "f-ed up".

Their local health unites provides the papers.How do people without OHIP prove they are vaccinated?
Well the strippers are experts in dealing with all sorts of "infections" so it makes sense.In case anyone missed this yesterday…
