Default Canadian Govt website

Why the fricking hell isnt the canadian govt website compatible for both Macs and PCs. Bloody hell I had to download IE on my powerbook to be able to use it.

With all the fricking bloody taxes we have to pay every year, surely they could afford to make it compatible for both.

Rant over - sorry!

So really it's not a case of incompatibility with Macs it's only compatible with Internet Explorer.

...but given that Micro$oft don't support or even make IE for Mac anymore, you could argue it Willmore's way http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_Explorer_for_Mac

Willmore, what site doesn't work? I haven't had problems with any government site on an Intel core duo thingy iMac running 10.4.7. Time for you to upgrade to that new Macbook methinks
