Good Day,
My name is Anna Scott from Ontario, Canada and this is my first post ever. It is a pleasure to meet the Steemit family.
Today, rather than writing an article about Crypto Currency, I decided to write an amusing snippet of some local news to spread some cheer and laughter. At the end, I'll even amuse you with my free report on you how to become a Crypto Millionaire, and I will cleverly attempt to tie it all together. All strange but true.
I have a question for you. When you think of Canada, what do you truly think of? Our Canadian Flag? Tim Hortons? Hockey? The Canadian Rockies? Our Prime Minister? Maple Syrup? Canadian Bacon? Niagara Falls? Well how about a BIG YELLOW DUCK?
This appears to be a true case of "one of these things just doesn't belong here". Now, I’m not talking about a little bath tub rubber ducky toy that you used to play with when you were a small child. I’m talking about a giant yellow 30,000pound (13,600 kilogram) rubber duck that is currently floating in our great Lake.
Why? To celebrate Canada's 150th birthday!
The province is calling it one big cluster duck! $200,000 of our Canadian tax dollars is paying for this rubber ducky.
So what on earth does a giant rubber duck have to do with Canada’s 150th birthday?
The answer provided by the Tourism Minister is quite humorous. vApparently “people like to celebrate in many different ways”. What? It didn't make any sense, so I decided to dig a little bit deeper. Maybe, just maybe, the duck was made by a famous Canadian artist? Nope, this duck thingy was designed by a Dutch artist. Perhaps the duck was manufactured in Canada? Nope, it is made by Americans. Huh?
So what’s with the 200,000$ price tag? Much of the expense is due to complex inflation technology. You may be familiar with this particular technology because in our modern world, it is most commonly known as A FAN!
Everything about this duck is humorous, and it’s even funnier that this ducky is representing our beautiful country to celebrate 150 years. Seriously, I can’t stop laughing.
So, if you happen to visit our great province of Ontario this summer, and spot a ginormous floating duck of astronomical proportions, you don’t have to do a double take. Just remember that you are witnessing top of the line inflation technology in motion, and you can thank Canada for not choosing a 30,000 pound great Canadian Beaver to celebrate the festivities!
Thanks for putting up with my humour...
On a more serious note, I want to end off my first post by providing you with some value. If you feel that you have missed the boat (or the giant rubber ducky), investing in CryptoCurrency and want a top of the line, FREE step by step blueprint that reveals the secret of becoming a Crypto Millionaire, check out my link at www.wealthwithcrypto.com
If on the other hand, you just want to see the duck, he or she is headed to Toronto. Happy Birthday Canada!
What comes to your mind when you think about Canada? I'd love to hear your comments below.
