The National Post has a piece about the Teddies, annual "awards" (in the Darwin Awards sense of it, meaning a prize you don't really want to win) that recognize government bodies--federal, provincial, local--that have gone that extra kilometer to squander our money. My favourite recipient: The Canadian Mint, which got its Teddy for spending $1.4-million to search for $20-million of "missing gold" that was there all along.
My question: since they don't really seem to need all that gold, can I have some?
