Toto, we're not in Kansas anymore...

Oh Celine. Celine, Celine, Celine.

We don’t want you here.

Halifax thinks it’s the shit now that it has hosted a concert (in the pouring, miserable, 4ºC rain) at the public space in the middle of the city without pissing off everyone. There was just a few of us, and we don’t matter. But that was the Stones, fer chrissakes. Do you think my mother & grandmother (who went to Vegas to see Celine), would tolerate an outdoor concert in the ankle-high mud, wearing garbage bags to protect their clothing against the wind and rain like the poor suckers did during the Stones concert?? I.Don’t.Think.So.

So some advice to Celine and her manager husband: Go to Moncton. Not only is the weather more tolerable, gas cheaper, healthcare better and real estate more affordable, but they are friendlier there. You could save my grandmother the trip.
