Nothing like commemorating...nothing...
There's always fun news coming out of Europe.
The Italian national bank will issue a €2 coin portraying the signing of the European constitution treaty in Rome one year ago.Of course, the Dutch and the French rejected the constitution.
On the national side of the coin, the goddess Europa holds a pen and the text of the failed European constitution, with the words "Constituzione Europea" written on the coin's outer ring.
Eighteen million coins, which are already being dubbed "coin-stitutions" will be minted for general circulation.

Those whacky Europeans with their world wars, car fires and placid ignorance.
Why can't Canada be more like Europe?
Gosh, all that sophistication, rampant secularism, socialism and cynicism, cheese, wine and willing appeasement looks pretty appealing and sexy.
I wish Canada could be more like those smart Europeans.
