You are a very lucky man!!

Hey, you're in Canada, you could just move to that big red rectangle!

Well, there's not really anything to do in Saskatchewan!

Then you can be the one that makes something to do there!

Also, don't they have a really weird accent there? That could be interesting!

I'm not sure. Most people in Western Canada have an almost identical accent to me I'd say. Maybe you're thinking of Atlantic Canada?

Stick on DST, don't change back to winter time. It's depressing every year when it's suddenly dark an hour earlier. Sure I would be bringing my kids to the bus in the dark in the dead of winter, yet I rather still have light at 5pm.

This. 110% this. I hate getting home from work in pitch black. It saddens me; going to work in the dark, and coming home from work in the dark. 



Made a bet with LipeJJ and HylianYoshi that the XB1 will reach 30 million before Wii U reaches 15 million. Loser has to get avatar picked by winner for 6 months (or if I lose, either 6 months avatar control for both Lipe and Hylian, or my patrick avatar comes back forever).

I dunno, I can't even tell Canadian accents apart from American ones. I've just heard that Saskatchewan has a pretty unique accent, never met a person from there though.

Well, my accent is actually kind of a hybrid, where I pronounce most words the Canadian way but others, like data and again, the American way.

Well none of my friends are from Saskatchewan, so I honestly wouldn't know in person. Though Tommy Douglas (if you are not Canadian, don't bother asking who he is) did have a funny accent to me, and this is coming from an Albertan.

Not anyone from Saskatchewan, Newfoundland however is a different thing all together! I cant even understand some Newfies. It's like an odd dialect of hybrid drunkin' Irish and Scottish at the same time.

End it. I live in Arizona and I don't miss DST. We vote it down in a landslide every time the state legislature tries to put it on the ballot. Whatever purpose it may have served once upon a time, if any, has long passed.

Yeah, I wondered why Arizona doesn't have it but every other state does.
