Spend a better part of a day trying to deal with the customer (no help) service at Telus and Canada Post. Almost ready to drop kick a kitten through a ceiling fan after that. Holy hell.

Had that same rant over and over. Cancelled home phone, switched cell phone to Bell, switched home internet to Shaw, moved work PRI network to Shaw, moved work Internet to WiBand. Life is a lot simpler now.

Why the hell do people with kayaks, canoes, SUPs, all need to clog up a boat launch. You carried it from the water halfway up the launch and set it right in the way of people who can't carry their damn boats to the water. Why don't you just set up a damn picnic area where you are?

And then there is the douches with stereos blasting. Cant we have it at a moderate volume so all can enjoy the water?

Lol love it! These are the same people that feel riding there bike down the middle of the road is ok and they have the right to. and don’t you know the dude blasting his tunes thinks everyone enjoys his song so much he’s doing you all a favour to rock out to.
and theres a law that states you can’t kill people. pfh...really.

Every cawk sucker of a tourist going through Jasper that pulls over to take a picture of an animal. Just because there is an elk on the opposite side of the highway, does not give you the right to walk out in front of two lanes of traffic and expect people to stop.

Rubber neckers who hold up traffic to take a picture of an animal on the highway...

Tourists that think wild animals are cute and cuddly and get way too close to them for a stupid picture.. I genuinely hope one of you idiots are gored, mauled, trampled or eaten alive.

Tourists... period...

The park gates... Why isn’t there a bloody through lane for traffic that isn’t stopping??....

I've been hoping for that for years. I'll never forget the first time the wife wanted to pull the holiday trailer with my old dually. We come around a corner near Jasper and bam there's vehicles parked on both sides of the hwy and people gawking at some elk and not pulled off very far onto the shoulder I'm pretty sure she closed her eyes and just held the wheel straight, no scrapes though lol

People who behave stupidly as in all the tourist examples above and thoughtlessly put other people in danger as well as themselves. Everybody screws up from time to time but there are those who turn screwing up into an art.

I’m getting pretty irked at people doing Mach chicken past me on the highway then trying to flag me down for helpwhen they hit the ditch. Twice this week out West.
Isn't that the truth. Coming back from Edmonton on the QEII a couple weeks ago, there were several in the ditch that had passed us. Just gotta laugh and smile to one's self.

Nailed that statement! Man I tell ya it’s so stupid some days that I wish they’d build a train between Calgary and Edmonton to get 97% of the dummies off the road! Play video games on your phone for 53 minutes and sell your car!

I am not the least bit upset with those who choose to live in the city and avoid car ownership. Wish quite a few more would do so as well.
