I completely forgot today was Canada Day as I'm working nightshift just like any other Wednesday.  Bloody irritating when I went to the bank only to find it closed.  And I'd forgotten my house keys and had to break in through the kitchen window.  My god this place is easy to get into.

I will bring Canada Day to a close by potentially being thrown out of the country :

-Big brand Canadian beer sucks just as much as big brand American beer.
-Tim Horton's is really rather crap.

How's THAT for some goddamn fireworks!  :D

Nah, you're fine.  Sounds about right to me.

Besides, we're supposed to be boycotting Timmy's now because they refused to run an oil add on their in-store TVs or something.

As for the beer, yeah Labatt's and Molson kinda suck.  Having said that, I think I'm over the whole microbrew thing.  I went to a craft beer festival about a month ago.  I swear I never want to taste another IPA again.  Is that all these hipster idiots can brew? "With all the hops, you really can't tell how badly we actually suck at brewing!"  I tried to make a rule that we would only get samples from booths that didn't feature facial hair but that left less than 10 out of over 100 so we went with "Ok there can be facial hair present in the booth as long as there are also chicks (without facial hair)."

I like craft beer, but I've never been a fan of IPA. Too hoppy, too bitter, not what I'm looking for at all.

Ezra Levant is just hating Timmy's because someone is paying him to do so (same reason why he 'hates' anyone else)...I've hated them for years! He's hopping on my bandwagon!  :)
