... You do have cars right?

I mean it's not like you ride your Moose to Canadian Tire.



There are these things called streets. They make for awesome parking.

Many small towns do have very small parking lots in front of certain stores, like grocery stores...and most small towns also don't have a Canadian Tire. They have nice local hardware stores. Which are so much more wonderful.

Parking on the street?
But that's where all the other cars are parked and there's never an open spot.

Even if there is a spot and you posess the talent to parrell park you risk getting shot for holding up traffic behind you.

Then you have to decide wether to pump change into the meter or give change to the crazy homeless guy because he knows you have change and can't use the old 'I only have credit cards on me' line.

No metered parking? No pay lots? Sounds like prime oportunity for a greedy capitalist to move in.

I dunno I faced the wrath of the imerperialistic Canada Parking Corporation and came out pretty good.

What can a farmer do to me?

A pitchfork won't do much to a parking meter.

Hahahhhaha. I liked the last few posts. :D

You park on the street. It's very, very rare where there are too many cars to park on the street. I suppose there are sort-of parking lots by the Catholic church and the hockey rink, but it's more like 'empty space.' The hospital has a bit of a lot, too.

We just have a restaurant and a general store, plus the real necessities (Credit Union, hospital, post office, oilfield businesses, ball parks, hockey rink).
