To be fair, he didn't actually write the book. He just put his name on someone else's work.

Fun fact: there was a law under Henry VIII to limit the number of sheep held by any given landowner to 2000. But since some reckoned a hundred as 5 score, and others as 6 score, they allowed the 6 score amount. So a thousand being 10 hundred, 2000 could be 20 × 6 score = 2400.

Didn't see any of these in Canada, then.

Canadian 5, 10 & 25 cent coins, plus a $1 coin, depicting King Charles III.

I'm no epidemiologist, but wouldn't a sensible policy be to roll out flu vaccines in late August or early September to *prevent* circulation rather than sometime in October or November to *reduce* circulation?

Not all that different from what Toronto has been doing with property tax cuts and the addition of Land Transfer Taxes for newly purchased properties. We got dinged with a $21,000 surprise tax bill.

There's a cheesy joke in that registration number. Even cheesier with the mouse cartoon.

Those 10:00 a.m. sunrises in Edmonton will be worth, er, getting up for. So how much daylight does NWT actually have to save during, say, December or January?
