It’s that we have a 2-week festival of rock, blues, hip hop, comedy, cowboys, dj’s, noise, weed, beer, poutine and guys in inflatable hamster balls … and it all happens _ ** around our national War Museum ** _ .

Yes, in a city where we put up signs banning juggling on Canada Day , I think it is pretty incredible that collectively we’re okay with this.

What do you think?
