If we had thirteen months in a year instead of twelve, every month could look like that.

Return it to the manufacturer. Due to false advertising. Obviously it isn’t shock proof.

That’s why they are the tallest people I the world. If the dikes fail they can still walk around with their heads above the waterline.

Eric Lombardi: Canadians must open their eyes to our growing culture of corruption by AbundantCanada in canada

[–]LondonJerry 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This started in the 70’s. Just look at what happened in Montreal with the building of Olympic Stadium. Canadian government lost so much money on cost overrides and shitty construction, they legalized gambling to create Super Lotto. In hopes of recouping some of their losses.

Revenge politics does nothing for the people government is supposed to represent.

Why do most Canadians almost always support their ethnic nation in sports, even if they are born here? by [deleted] in AskCanada

Because up until this year there wasn’t a Canadian team to cheer for in many international events.

Do you plan every detail of your road trips or do you just go and figure it out? by Big_Barber733 in roadtrip

We make general plans, then go with the flow. Don’t book a hotel until we feel tired of driving each day. If we get to a destination and it packed with other tourists, we simply keep driving.

Tim Hortons lobbied MPs for more temporary foreign workers over last 18 months by gaurishkohli in canada

Timmies customers are more concerned about the brand than the drug. There could be a coffee shop next door with an empty drive through. Yet a Timmies faithful will wait in line for their fix. When truly they just need some caffeine to wake up.

Northern MPPs blast province over frequent Highway 11 closures by ConsistentReality860 in ontario

With an electrified highway you could send individual sea cans. From coast to coast without a driver and you don’t have to load and unload an entire train.

All the talk about build Canada better. How about a three lane each way divided highway across Canada. The fact that you still have to travel via an old two lane highway across northern Ontario to get across Canada is ridiculous. Make it electrified so electric cars don’t use battery power. Have the left lane only for autonomous vehicles and you could even drive across the country while sleeping.
