If you weren’t aware of it: it’s Canada Day today and it’s also the day new tax changes will take effect, courtesy of the Government of Canada. A whopping one percent. I predict spending sprees when the long holiday is over, next week. It’s brilliant, actually: Even Canada’s military hardware purchases are cheaper now too! That is, if built in Canada, naturally.
There’s something weird going on in The Netherlands, after the fall of the Cabinet. From what I understand is that the queen most likely will ask the prime-minister to form a minority government until the elections later this Fall. Normally, if a government falls all ministers take a ‘passive’ role until elections.
The WorldCup is still around. Today, the British English play the Portuguese, which probably will be just as exciting as watching the taxrate change from 15 to 14% 1.
Happy and safe Canada Day today.
1 OK, then, I say it’s going to be 2-1 1-0 for the English.
Much later: They fricking lost.
