I'm feeling pretty satisfied with my government right about now. by Jerry Whorebach 06/23/2008, 4:56pm PDT
Apparently the province came into some money recently, no one knows where they got it (enviro levies? federal grant, maybe?) but they were supposed to use it to stop global warming or some bullshit. And that's where the story would have ended, with millions of dollars being frivolously squandered on something scientists can't even agree is a real thing... IF we hadn't elected such a hard-charging maverick Liberal government that knows "party lines" are for desperate losers and skanks. They invented something called a "Climate Action Dividend," which in less scientific terms is also known as a cheque for $100, and everybody got one in their mailbox today.

Now, there are a lot of things you can buy with $100, but if you're anything like the average Liberal voter there's really only one: a nearly-full tank of gas for your 1989 Ford F-150 Super Duty. Sadly, I don't own an awesome cowboy truck because I'm not (technically) an awesome cowboy, so I'll have to come up with something else to spend my "green money" on (it's not really green, it's pink like all Canadian money, but it comes from the environment so...). That's why, all this week, I'll be taking suggestions on the most patriotic shit I could possibly kick with $100. I already checked the Canadian Tire flier and it's not enough for an outdoor grill to grill steaks on my balcony, so that's out, but pretty much everything else is fair game.

Dazzle me with your fancy plans and pants to match, Caltrops! Gaia, the spirit of the Earth, is counting on you!
