Family Day

[Sophia Sinclair]

Happy Family Day everyone in AB, SK, ON & NB!

If you're one of the fortunate to get the day off I hope you spend it enjoying time with your loved ones.

It's also Islander Day in PE and Louis Riel Day in MB.

Why didnt they make Family day a summer holiday, instead of the frozen one we got now??

 

[The "Bone" Ranger]

Because people get the mid. Winter blues and to break the long stretch between Jan 1 and Good Friday

Why not give us a whole week off then and lets do the Bahamas

Not smart to send our money out of the country.

 

[thailover]

We send billions out every year for decades to the poor nations which default/never payback and most of it ends up in so called helpful charitable organizations management or banana republic leaders pockets and not to the starving but no one seems to held accountable—I guess someone in government is lining their pockets as well

I'm trying to comprehend how a thread wishing my fellow Canadians well on a non statutory holiday devolves into a political statement like this ^^^. Remember, it's easy to be negative. Try to stay positive!

It's TERB.

It is like at the end of the movie Chinatown, where after a few deaths reminiscent of earlier in his career, Jack Nicholson's partner is trying to get him to leave he says, "C'mon Jake. Let's get out of here. It's Chinatown."

So just like nothing good happens in Chinatown, everything gets politicized on TERB.
