Christ.

It is really getting to a point where leaving this country isn't just something that people say because they disagree with things -- it will become a necessity if you would like any sort of freedom whatsoever.

Sure, I don't have a problem with this proposal, as long as the first homes with the equipment installed are Chief Hurt's home, his office, and the mayor and city council's offices. After all, we need to prevent corruption.

Actually my math was slightly off - the temperature was -45C which is -49F, so that's 82Fahrenheit below freezing.

Which is why Canadians think Torontonians are pussies for complaining about -15 centigrade (0F).
