The American 5th amendment (as seen on TV) allows someone in court to refuse to answer a question, if that answer would incriminate themselves.

The Canadian constitution is far less interesting than the US one. Most of our amendments are about how seats should be divided in parliament, or including the younger provinces in older legislation. And, of course, the one that says a bridge can be built to PEI.

Our constitution also causes a lot less trouble than some others.

I skipped #264 as it was just not interesting enough to repost.

I used to drive a Ford Taurus, so it’s an ox. Get it? That’s comedy! The worst part of Canadian winters is when you get that thin layer of ice on the car. The one that’s too thick to defrost and too think for the scraper to get any bite into. And, of course, I can’t keep the car in a garage because then were would all my spare tires and half-completed projects live?

Today is 30c and I am melting.
