February Gets A Long Weekend

Premier Dalton McGuinty, feeling fresh from his latest victory, took to the podium to announce a new long weekend for Ontarians. Beginning this February, on the third Monday of the month, we'll all be celebrating Family Day. I've been hoping for another day off to hit the hills when the snow starts piling up. Great idea. This also puts Ontario on par with B.C., Alberta, Saskatchewan and the Territories, giving us 9 days a year off from work and more time for leisure.
