Re: Rum ship aground!

Quoting the article...

"The vessel’s engineers have already rectified the engine problem but the vessel needs some assistance off the bank"

Need to lighten her up. Drink up, Canada!

Re: Rum ship aground!

Coincidentally ran aground the same day the Pot Head Prime Minister won a sweeping majority government.

Canadians better be careful or they'll get a reputation for being a bunch of drunken stoners.

Oh right...
