Pet Peeve Of The Week

my pet peeve of the week is a bit early because we're on our way to kelowna for my husbands family reunion. pray for me! anyway, here it is:

we are in the midst of getting our passports. yes our trip is in the beginning of august and i have left it until the last possible moment but .........if we lived in ontario this would be an easy task. we could walk into one of 10 passport offices across the province and have it in 10 working days, but as it is, we live in the interior of b.c. and in a province as big as ours there are only 4, yes 4 passport offices in the whole province! all of them in the lower mainland. so i guess if you happen to live outside of the lower mainland (which millions do) you're shit out of luck. you have to mail your original birth certificate and your health card to ottawa. we have to trust the morons is ottawa not to lose our important i.d. and then mail us our passports on time. which rarely ever happens. to make a long story short my pet peeve is: there should be way more passport offices throughout the province. we all pay taxes not just people in vancouver!
