Electric kiss bonanza

Just a little drawing that's been stuck in my head for a while - lightbulb girl and electrikkkkkk man!

In other news, Quebec. Ah, Quebec. Quebec, Quebec, Quebec. I love my province. It's pretty, it's artsy. I'm proud to call myself a french canadian, I love my extra layer of cultural identity. HOWEVER. Quebec seems to be Canada's problem child. I noticed that several Quebec laws differ from laws found in every other province for no obvious reason, except to be different, because then we avoid...assimilation? What is this? The 1760's?

In any case, as it turns out, I have to pay my landlord for the month of October. Because I told him I was ending my lease too late. You have to tell a landlord 2 months (60 days) before the end date in Ontario/Canada... But you have to tell them FOUR MONTHS prior in Quebec. Oh, and also, in Quebec leases do renew automatically, unlike in all the other provinces... WTF, Quebec? A few things my landlord did are still illegal (and I told him) but i'm not getting out of paying for October. Urgh. I hate living in between two provinces. I live in Quebec, then cross a bridge to work in Ontario. The laws and rules change when I cross the bridge. It's confusing on a daily basis.

All I can do is hope he finds a tenant before October, because then i'll be dispensed of paying. Whew. *hopes*

Edit: snapdragon76 , September sucks for me too. Let's cheat on it together with October. He's sexier. He has Halloween.

Gah, it is a lot. Especially for young people who don't know where their jobs are gonna be.

Exactly. It's a wonder any young people try striking out on their own at all. Get yourself into a bad situation (sudden job loss near the end of your lease, for instance) and you'll pay dearly. I'm surprised Quebec doesn't update its laws to reflect the times...
