[QUOTE=Angus725;48143716]CAD will probably fall more once Iran deal is signed. Iran has a lot of crude oil reserves, which will drive oil prices lower, and in turn hurt the Alberta oil industry, which will show up in CAD value...[/QUOTE] So does that mean I'll see $1.50/L prices again? It's not like they're at all dropping prices on that shit

It's 40 outside. [del]I'm[/del]It's so hot right now.
It's neat how weather here behaves. The heat and humidity build up until a thunderstorm breaks out and the weather cools down for a day or so. Blowout soon, fellow C.A.N.A.D.I.A.N.

Some protest inconvenienced me on my way to work yesterday outside the Royal York hotel. I don't know or care what it was about, I think some enviromental communist bullshit, but whatever it was I now oppose the protesters opinion on their matter because if there's any way to make me oppose what you stand for it's inconveniencing me in some way.
There's some repainting work being done on my side of the apartment. Which means the ropes and cables for the painting crew are hanging down. Some asshole at 3AM decided it would be a fun idea to swing the cables, making them bang on the metal railing rather loudly (It's a metal panel kind of railing). Thankfully, they stopped after I yelled down at them.

I'd just drive right through it because it's just yarn.

They were blocking access to York St. and Front St. in front of the Royal York at the intersection of Front, York, and University by standing in the middle of the road with a megaphone and a barricade of police bicycles.

Once the cops showed up and ordered them to let all the trucks through without delay they started being more reasonable, aside from making me want to go work for one of the 5 or 6 companies they're constantly complaining about for "providing scabs". It's one thing to picket/strike - I almost ended up being a part of a strike once and would have been happy to participate, but keep it focused on the actual target.
[QUOTE=garychencool;48159910]Expect more of these guys around, since the Pan Am Games are coming up tomorrow, they'd get more publicity and annoy more people.[/QUOTE] It wasn't Pan Am, there was an environmental summit in the Royal York that day and they were threatening to interrupt it.

So apparently there was a dead raccoon funeral somewhere in Toronto. I have no idea where though.
[QUOTE=DaCommie1;48161299]It wasn't Pan Am, there was an environmental summit in the Royal York that day and they were threatening to interrupt it.[/QUOTE] Oh that makes more sense.
Also, the CN Tower looked like it was on fire so that was fun.
