    Also, opened up the turkey this morning and it was missing a leg. Still tasted great.
    sorry to hear.

    Service Canada and the Passport application process SUCKS!! My daughter had an appointment at the Service Canada in Orangeville to put in her papers for a new passport. This would be her first adult passport, but her fourth overall. The rejected her application because her birth certificate was ripped and had a piece of tape on it. How the fuck do you think she got the other passports? It was with the same ripped and taped birth certificate. She waited 4 Months for this appointment.

    Did they think she’s a master forger and the rip and tape was part of the “document aging”? You know, like on National Treasure.

    Crazy stories about line-ups from pre-dawn and still not getting into the offices. Did she get a refund? I think they are giving refunds due to all the issues but not sure what the criteria is.

    Got a voter card for my father today (municipal). He died 23 years ago and would have been 105 now if still alive. All forms and paperwork was properly filed.

    My last in person vote was fed into a Dominion counting machine.
