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: [livejournal.com profile] snapdragon76 , September sucks for me too. Let's cheat on it together with October. He's sexier. He has Halloween.

No way! You're kidding? That sucks. Maybe you're getting all of your bad luck out of the way for October, which will be full of good luck? It has to balance right?

I like the drawing. They're cute and make me go "Awwww!"

Four months in advance? Okay, not as bad as, say, a year in advance, but that's still quite a lot! I think I'll stick with having to let my landlord know before the next payment period comes up...

Seriously? Is that in your contract? I know that if it's not in my contract here, it's not legal.

Uhhhh...I think in the case of lease breaking, Quebec should probably assimilate with the rest of the country. I'm all for preserving Quebec's diverse and unique culture, but that? Four months? IS FUCKED UP.

I should visit Quebec. =3

Um, why is your landlord still a landlord? In fact, why is he even in the business? >>

Halloween is awesome, but November has Thanksgiving, and December has Christmas, and January has New Year's...

Dude, that totally bites about the rent. From what I read from school, didn't Quebec want to be separate at one point?


Ohhh, threesome with October? I'm all for that!

And I use an icon of Pip, cause he's the only French guy I have...
