Give me a March break

March 2008
In the aftermath of a massive snowsttorm dumping over a foot of snow on Barrie, I felt compelled to write this letter to personally thank my Toronto Sun carrier for waiting until the Monday, March 10, after the storm to deliver my paper (no I’m not being sarcastic, I really mean it).

Doing that saved my Sunday Sun from suffering the same fate as my local community newspaper, that being shredded by my snowblower;  “Honey, the good news is I found the paper. The bad news is what is left of it is blowing down the street right now.”
