@Guy - Not only is This Hour still on, but there is also now a show titled The Rick Mercer Report. Hysterical. Very Happy

That is almost barely just about enough to consider moving back home. Very Happy

But! Since I just found the show available for download, I'll take the best of both worlds.

Oh Mr. Mercer, how you slay me.

Downloading as we speak. You need a bittorrent client to properly pirate it though.

Thanks Guy!

Funny how much I miss this show...I also really miss Stuart McLean but luckily can hear him on cbc.ca. It's the little things that I miss most... Sad

Hey! Tim Horton's is now a publicly traded company, worht $36 CDN per share! Sounds like good news.

But, Tim Horton's is actually owned by Wendy's, an American fast-food chain. Behing every good bit of Canadiana there's an American company pulling the strings. Sad

I have would have bought some shares had I still lived in Canada. Being a non-resident, a big no-no and can't be bothered to get them through an American company.

At $36 a share, I think my investments in Tim Horton's will be restricted to a 20 pack of Timbits.

OK, a guy walks into a Tim Horton's....... talk about tim-bits!!


sadly, not a joke. this happened across from my local. the bartender joked that the fellow must have been a disappointed inveswtor who couldnt buy shares in Tims.
