Canada Day, Canada Act 1982, Disco 82


Eh, tomorrow's Canada Day!

Because Kate and Will are gracing Ottawa with his balding head and her over-tanned face, I thought it would be nice, just for fun, to go over the year 1982. Not because that's the year Kate and Will's Highnessesses came to life, but rather because that's the year things supposedly changed for Canada:

"The Canada Act 1982 (1982 c. 11) is an Act of Parliament passed by the British Parliament that ended all remaining dependence of Canada on the United Kingdom, by a process known as "patriation."

Remember that? Apparently not... the Canadians and their government's lust for these young feudal capitalists is so as infuriating as it is pathetic that playing Bollywood 'Disco 82' while reading the same wikipedia page makes for a much less frustrating experience. I encourage you to do the same.
