Emile Ratelband, 69, said he feels discriminated against for his age. He said it’s affecting his employment chances and his success rate on the popular dating app, Tinder. The man says medical tests and doctors say he has the body of a man in his 40s.

He said he’d like to change his age to 20 years younger and be 49.

He argues that if transgender people are allowed to change their sex, he should be allowed to change his birth date.

That’s not how time works Emile, lol.

Wait till some weirdo wants to change his or her age to 17 to avoid being a pedophile.

I feel like I'm 67. I want to change my age to 67 to be what I feel like. I could also collect social security.

I’ll take 35... then I won’t get “what can I do for you young man?” and the kids treatment at 28...

I want to be 200 on my next birthday. That way I get my free meal at Denny's and they have to pay me the check.

I'd like to be the age I was a week ago. That way, I'd still be in Florida.

Out of curiosity, what do you do about healthcare while in Florida?

Our National health care only covers us while we're in Canada. After that we're on our own, just like you are. Most people purchase temporary insurance to cover them while they're away. I don't have to. My Union takes care of that for us.

Nice!

How does it work if you want to take a day or weekend trip across the border? Can you get a temporary policy to cover a short duration such as that?

You can purchase it by the day.

Some policies last a maximum of 60 or 90 days.

We know snowbirds who go to Florida and after the expiry of the term, one of them has to fly home for one day, to purchase new insurance.

So is the insurance sold by Canadian companies that have service agreements with U.S. health care providers?

Canadian and U.S. Companies. Ours is with AIG, a hewge American Co. I believe Obama gave them a generous bailout a few years ago. They have agreements with various U.S providors.

One year I had to take my wife to emergency in Florida. AIG said to take her to Morton Plant hospital, where they have an agreement. After we got back home, Morton Plant stared sending us bills and calling. They said AIG didn't pay the entire amount. AIG said they had paid as per the agreement they had with Morton Plant. I told the hospital to stop wasting their time calling me because I wasn't going to pay. They stopped.
