Just thought I should share this.
Over the weekend, I participated in a Youth Parliament event. It's pretty much a mock parliament using all the rules of the real Canadian parliament, but everyone participating is in highschool/university. Of course, some of the bills are ridiculous.
Anyway, one of the ministries put forward a bill stating that since everyone is so down about the economy, every person in Canada should be given… a pony. Yep, free ponies. And they would be genetically altered to be any colour of the rainbow, and they could be given wings if you wanted.
Now, after parliament is done, we always have a banquet and a little awards ceremony for memorable things that happened during the session. Naturally, I had to abuse my power as Deputy Premier and I awarded that minister the highest honour I could think of: The Order of the 20% Cooler.
I don't think he was a brony, but by the way he was laughing as he picked up his certificate, I know that he realized what this award meant.
Oh, by the way, that bill passed. So in other news, come to Canada! You will receive a free pony!
