My partner did his medicals today and I was impressed how decentralized the process is. You need three different trips - one to the general physician, one for blood and one for x-ray. All different clinics. 10 years ago when I applied from UK, I did everything in one session at one clinic. Took less than 30 minutes. I don't know if it's because we are in Ottawa. Perhaps Toronto is more streamlined.

Not to mention that many clinics told him to wait till end of June for the next available appointment...
Every day on this H&C journey is a battle. We are all true warriors.
