Gas Coupon

I got this in my in box today. :)


I didn't realise this but these coupons are good for
one litre of gas at most retailers. I have seen them
around lots but never knew what they were for.
You probably have one lying around somewhere now.
Make sure to use it before it expires!!

Make Poverty History Campaign

I just saw an advertisement on tv for this website.
All celebrity cast...quite compelling.
When you sign on to the Make Poverty History campaign, your name is added to the list of a quarter of a million Canadians who are asking our elected representatives for:

* More and better aid
* Trade justice
* Debt cancellation
* An end to child poverty in Canada

Your voice will be united with millions around the world committed to making poverty history.

You might live in Canada if....

I got this cute email with well known things said about Canadians, and these ones I have experienced first hand. :)
