TL;DR: I don't even know what I'm asking.

I got attacked on my way to my room. It was from a dude I used to talk to back when we were trying to find a homeless shelter together. I think he was on drugs and attacked me when he realized I wouldn't give him money.

He got me in the shoulder and lower abdomen but thankfully my prosthetic is perfectly fine and the cops literally saw the entire thing unfold so realistically I should be dead but I was able to receive help quickly.

I haven't started my new job yet so I currently don't have an income. $45 is impossible for me to pay right now. Thank you to the Toronto Police.

Unrelated but are we actually paying European level taxes for substandard service or is that a myth?

Yeah just wait for your bill, you should be fine to delay it until your first paycheque. When you receive the bill, look for the due date and look for the number you can call for assistance. You may be able to negotiate a *deferral or a payment plan.

The worst case for not being able to pay this bill is better than taking out a payday loan to finance it.
