Tax fritter
Another batch of old pictures, on the web today. This set goes back to the time of my great-grandparents, so a full century ago. The local parish church, which no person alive in the area has ever seen. It tickles my fancy; particularly because the one photo is in focus and properly exposed. Score a point for a long-gone photographer.
Meanwhile, my tablet has been backing up my personal photo collection to the cloud. Three days and counting. Maybe, once the transfer is complete, I can free up the storage space on the precious RAM and get back some potential going forward.
I shouldn’t count on politicians for anything important. The federal minister of finance doesn’t understand “conflict of interest” or “my secret villa in France”. A provincial cabinet gives a boatload of money to an airplane manufacturer (there should have been a clue about the futility of their effort), just before the manufacturer gives control of the company to the competition in another nation. Tax revenue, so easily frittered away.
Quebec has proposed a new law, which would make it illegal to use public facilities with a covered face… have the bunch of them become so accustomed to their limo service that they forget the common man. Try waiting for a public transit bus, in mid-winter with you mouth and nostrils bare. Then get on the bus and wait for the added injury of a fine (as if frostbite wasn’t enough).
More wildfire news. This time, on the AB/SK border. Get the grasses burning and you’ll be needing the arrival of a heavy snowfall.
