I love that sign!

I read on overheardinnewyork.com a German commenting in a puzzled way to a New Yorker: So you can't drink outside but can't smoke inside? :)

It's crazy to see all the smokers on the sidewalks around here.

I know they are....

There's a small bar around here that has a line up in front of it all the time and there is a bus stop there too. I have seen the bus stop so many times for them and no one gets on.

Our country IS regressive when it comes to it's citizen's rights!!:mad:





.... OOOoooops :o sorry.... You said PROgressive.

i've been to Canada......lots of hot chicks up there! aye! :D

Breaking news! Canada loves beer! (And Newfs drink a lot!!!)
 

CANADIAN PRESS

OTTAWA — When it comes to spending bucks on booze, beer wins hands down in Canada.

Statistics Canada says that as usual, beer was by far the most popular beverage in terms of dollar value, capturing 50.7 per cent of sales compared with 24.7 per cent for spirits and 24.6 per cent for wine.

In a report on sales for the fiscal year ending March 31 last year, the agency says beer and liquor stores and agencies sold more than $16.1 billion worth of the beverages, up 4.9 per cent from the year before.

But that rate of growth was slower than the six per cent increase during the previous fiscal year.

And although Canadian products still dominated, imported beer gained ground, capturing 11 per cent of the market, up from three per cent a decade earlier.

The agency says when it came to wine, red was by far the preferred choice, capturing 49 per cent of the volume of sales, white 36 per cent and unidentified wine 15 per cent.

"Revenue from the sale of alcoholic beverages plus the net income realized by provincial and territorial liquor authorities hit $4.3 billion in 2003-04, up 7.2 per cent from the previous year ... the largest year-over-year increase in the last 20 years," Statistics Canada says.

Canadians bought 86.3 litres of beer, 13.3 litres of wine and 7.6 litres of spirits during the year, with total per capita purchases of alcoholic beverages amounting to $623.60, the agency said.

"Consumers in Quebec and Newfoundland and Labrador led the pack, purchasing just over 115 litres of alcoholic beverages per capita. In contrast, those in Saskatchewan purchased only 94.4 litres, lowest of all."

By volume, per capita purchases of beer were highest in Newfoundland and Labrador and Quebec, and lowest in British Columbia.

"Newfoundlanders also bought the highest per capita volumes in spirits. Quebecers led the way with purchases of wine.

"Among spirits, rum was still most popular in Newfoundland and Labrador, Prince Edward Island and Nova Scotia. Whisky was the preferred choice for consumers from Ontario to British Columbia."

Eh...

Oh Joy, Oh Bliss

Canada is having a federal election in January.

These idiots are going around door to door campaining......

Bah Humbug!

:rolleyes2 <---- jealous, envious, longing green monster smilie


Get down on your knees and thank god. You throw one gang of thieves out in November and the others only get to pile it on you for 36 Days minimum. Our government stops pretending to do anything and starts spending the graft for ONE AND A HALF YEARS ahead of time.:yikes: <----- barfing, disgusted smilie

Our last election was in 2004 and resulted in a minority ruling government of the Liberal Party.

It will end up the same way again.

And if it doesnt we shall have a Conservative government headed by this guy......

"Our very own cowboy" LMAO.........and lord help us then!

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA"

*... runs screaming down the pier, towards the icy lake*







oops :o I didn't read past the first five letters in the title of the pic.

:yikes: <---- horror stricken, heart pounding, oxygen sucking, chest clutching smilie

Your a shithead....;) LOL and I mean that in the nicest way too.

Looks like he'd make a good team with our own "goat-roper"...can anybody say Dumb & Dumber?

Just think. With Stan & Olly, Mexico would be the intellectual headquarters of North America.

THE LAW IS THE LAW


So if the CANADIAN government determines that it is against the law for the words "under God" to be on our money, then,
so be it.

And if that same government decides that the "Ten
Commandments" are not to be used in or on a government
installation, then, so be it.

And since they already have prohibited any prayer in the schools, on which they deem their authority, then so be it.

I say, "so be it," because I would like to be a law abiding Canadian citizen

I say, "so be it," because I would like to think that smarter people than I are in positions to make good decisions.

I would like to think that those people have the Canadian Public's best interests at heart.

BUT, YOU KNOW WHAT ELSE I'D LIKE?

Since we can't pray to God, can't Trust in God and cannot post His Commandments in Government buildings, I don't believe the Government and its employees should
participate in the Easter and Christmas.... celebrations which honor the God that our government is eliminating from many facets of Canadian life.

I'd like my mail delivered on Christmas, Good Friday, Thanksgiving & Easter. After all, it's just another day.

I'd like our Government to be in session on Christmas, Good Friday,Thanksgiving & Easter as well as Sundays. After all, it's just another day.

I'd like ALL Representatives to not have to worry about getting home for the "Christmas Break." After all ~~~ it's just another day.

I'm thinking that a lot of my taxpayer dollars could be saved, if all government offices & services would work on Christmas, Good Friday & Easter. It shouldn't cost any overtime since those would be just like any other day of the week to a government that is trying to be "politically correct."

In fact....

I think that our government should work on Sundays (initially set aside for worshipping God...) because, after all, our government says that it should be just another day....

What do you all think????



BRING BACK SANITY TO CANADA!!
