So, as I mentioned before; we just celebrated Canada Day. Seeing as it fell on a Tuesday this year it wasn’t technically a long week-end. However, a lot of people who were higher up in the pecking order of their companies were able to take Monday off as well as Tuesday. A lot more people were able to beg their employer’s for a four day week-end, and everybody else just called in “sick”. So basically the whole country did get extra time off.
Now what’s interesting is that everybody complains that gas stations all increase their prices just before the long week-end. Ask any consumer and they will tell you it’s a huge conspiracy; but any oil company executive will tell you it’s just simply the law of supply and demand. Regardless of the fact that these evil scum-dogs are always lying, I couldn’t help but notice that the gas price did not increase (at least around the parts) last week-end. However, as I was driving home from work yesterday (Friday) I discovered that the price had risen by 4 cents per litre.
I thought that it was quite odd that the price would go up after the long week-end; but then I suddenly realized that Friday was Independence Day down south of the border. Thus it is a long week-end for our American neighbours. So in other words it is a huge conspiracy, it’s just that the evil American scum-dogs are in charge of it.
But I won’t hold that against all of the fine upstanding people down there who are also suffering from the effects of the aforementioned conspiracy. I will raise a Blue Beaver Beer and salute you as you celebrate the anniversary of the day that Will Smith saved the country from the alien invaders who tried to destroy everything. Have a great long week-end everyone.
