Re: Could we please instigate a ban???
On the constant whinings about how Canadians dont get as much holiday/vacation/leave time as "we" get in the UK!!!
I hate to complain (well actually I don't hate to complain about this subject) but it goes on and on - I hardly ever come to the board but there is yet again someone else complaining that they don't get as much holidays in Canada as they do in the UK.
This is CANADA (C A N A D A) - You get what is standard in your province - of CANADA.
If you don't get the holidays you got in England - you can't do anything about it. If you can't accept that - stay in England. This is NOT England!
(Sorry - I guess I am feeling grouchy, but I just get fed up with it.) It's like complaining about the weather - so if you don't like it - what do you propose to do about it???

Have a problem with your earnings or holidays?.....try being a farmer - 365 days a year of getting up at the crack of dawn to care for your animals....that combined with crud wages....hey I don't know why more people don't take up this type of lifestyle.
And then there are years when you get an added bonus - you get to work 366 days!!

I didn't realize this subject would go on for so long.
So far as I am concerned, I THINK I am OK with Canadians criticizing Canadian holidays or lack thereof. I THINK it's when Brits criticize that I get all huffy!!
Like I said - sorta like it's OK for me to complain about my kids - but nobody else can!!!

I don't know....and I don't care! I know that as a farmer I get absolutely NO holidays so whatever you guys are disagreeing on, doesn't impact me in the slightest .
