Canada should leave NATO and do a mutual defense treaty with Mexico

I suspect the C-suites of every property insurer are looking at California and remembering that there are three other horsemen: Mario, Wario and Waluigi.

Oh yea? Well, I guess we should take him at his wor—I can’t even finish that sentence.

Ontario Man... you, more than anyone should appreciate that the best part of the first snow storm is the 80 car crunchy-symphony you get from just over the hill.
