REPORT 7- June 30
Tomorrow is Canada's Birthday, and mine too!
As a present, I get to renew my driver's licence, because as of midnight
on my birthday, it automatically expires.
So I went in to the licensing office and they asked me if I wanted to pay
$15 for one year or $75 for five years, and aside from the inconvenience
it was relatively painless.
In fact, last night, when I was at a CTV reception and was talking about
doing a story on the consequences of not renewing your driver's licence on
time. Suddenly, one person said, "OH MY GOSH, I was to renew mine 6 months
ago!"
So at your next party, here's what you can tell people that "forget" or
"don't bother" to renew their licence. You can start off by saying, "You
may find yourself dealing some blood thirsty lawyer, if you have an
accident.

So enjoy the Canada Day's celebration and the long weekend. But beware,
there are a lot of speeding traps out there. And if you're driving with an
expired licence, and get pulled over, you may have to continue the rest of
your trip on foot.
