Like shooting fish in a barrel…
We asked, and you came through in record time. Hot off the keyboard, a double-whammy for caption contest #11:
“After paying Whitehorse property taxes on his new home, Murray Lundberg is left without even the shirt on his back.”
The only person who could possibly top that, at least according to our nascent point system, would be Murray Lundberg himself.
With another 4% tax hike next year, and 4% the year after that (and God knows how much beyond then), Murray might be thinking about moving back to Carcross. Or, as an alternative, starting to organize a movement for Porter Creek separation. Vive le Porter Creek Libre!
