To be fair, that one is a good call.
NZ ditched the 1,2 and 5 cent coins years ago for the same reason.
Bad side is you will find that anything with a price that finishes in the 96 to 99 cent range will get rounded up if you are paying cash.

So, you’re saying it’ll disproportionately impact people without electronic payment methods in a negative way. I guess it’s not much but at least it’s on brand.

I have to agree, this is the first thing that I agree with.
Except now the plot of Office Space/Superman movie will effectively be effected by every damn sale for a while.

My wife has cancelled and gotten a refund on a US vacation we had booked for this fall. She has also nixed a cross border shopping day with her girlfriend. I'm on the fence about bike trips.

You are absolutely correct. It’s so obvious by my posts that I am 100% behind this.
Have you apologized to your First Nation friends about where they had to go to school?
:p :rockout:
Sarcasm much?
We're Canadians. We'll give you beer.

On the other hand, my Canadian plate, in Utah, safe?

Fuck George Conway. Just discovered Frankenstein's monster did he? He is as responsible for this country winding up where it is as anyone. Fucking self serving loon and his shrew of a (now ex?) wife will have earned their places at the gallows during Night of the Long Knives 2; Electric Trump Boogaloo, when that inevitably happens.

George Conway has been saying rational things for quite a few years now. he's an entirely different beast than (yes, ex-wife) Kellyanne.

If by "rational", you mean, "oh no, it's the consequences of my actions!" than yes, maybe. But I haven't seen him or most of those other "Lincoln project" hacks do much besides pontificate on TV or Xitter for what I assume is a hefty appearance check.

Oh yes, that was just a sarcasm clapback, every country has done douchey things, I think.
Canadians are still totally left alone down here, except for Queebs in leaf-peeping season… :phone: :cupidarrow:

Im just grumpy, I knocked my fancy Gretsch off the wall, and it landed on my foot.
Good news, guitar is fine…bad news is that my foot hurts like a sumbitch.
