JHave BC Ferry tolls gone up at all ?
Things always have been kiinda expensive in Canada -  $ 5.40 for a US
gallon is pretty bad- gas , right ? not diesel ?

and your money is worth more than ours now !!
Personally..............I think the US government should contract out
the running of the US to the Canadian government.

Sure would be a lot less war-mongering.
and ..........I did visit Canada 3 times during Geroge Bush's time in
office.........and most of us Americans that attempt to be conscious
and non-violent, and politically correct, and environmentally
aware............we hate George Bush and why he  is is not impeached
and  charged with  Crimes Against  Humanity  is a complete mystery. He
has done more damage financially and all kinds of other ways, like
ignoring laws and making up new ones. ............ to the US,  than any
5 presidents before.  .

And I'm sorry your gas is so high. And they are pulling a ton of oil out
of tar sands in Alberta too.
I think Canada even exports oil. I know they do .

have fun at your events !
