"The attendant was not hurt."

And how the hell would anyone know that?

I will go with "The attendant was not PHSICALLY' hurt, but you have no idea if they were hurt emotionally or physiologically.

I hope someone cares enough about this person to let them know that this is an injury that is covered under WSIB.

Under WSIB, sudden and unexpected traumatic events include witnessing or being the object of an armed robbery.

I realize this is probably a direct quote from the police files.. but still. Good heavens, in this day and age…

well after further review by our manager your claim is denied..sorry but you actually have to be shot in order to get compensation .We are sorry about your phycological issues, but maybe you can work days now instead of nights..


CLAIM DENIED!!!!!!!!! sound Familiar???

No, actually it doesn't.

I've never heard of anyone applying for compensation after an armed robbery that was denied by the WSIB.

I know of another armed robbery where the cleak was off for quite a while, until her Dr. felt she was able to go back.

Where the frig are the police? We're paying them how much to drive through Tim Hortons? Drive the street coppers! Or maybe we should be paying the neighborhood watch to pick up the slack!

these cops have a hard enough time finding the holes in their doughnuts nevermind a teenager on the hill!!

Maybe the neighborhood watch should get a bonus for doing the police officers job. Like a bonus! Good job public citizen...here's a cheque cuz our police can't catch them! Or did they let them go cuz they know them? Hmmm mm mm!
