I think it's a fair system, especially considering the lower property taxes for rural homes. There's neither town water or sewerage here so they're not included in the bill.

Why should people resent paying tax? Funding for schools, hospitals, water, sewerage etc has to come from somewhere.

Depends on how close the bushes are to the well.

Sounds like a job for Tylenol 3 and a bag of frozen peas.

*froth* *loon*

Anyone else notice the irony of a brit applying to live in Canada complaining about immigrants???

I wasn't either to be honest just recounting a conversation I had today with a person in the post office. Mentioned I was going to Canada and they said it was the right thing to do etc etc etc immigrants in uk etc etc etc

They couldn't understand the irony of suggesting they became an immigrant to avoid immigrants.
