Elliot Lake? Don't think we have anyone from around there.

Gusto · Jun 25, 2012

Nope.

Good thing I don't shop there.

checkeredhat · Jun 25, 2012

I'm further away from that mall than most Americans are. I am safe.

For now.

Bubble181 · Jun 26, 2012

I'm further from that mall than most Americans too. Maybe you live close to me?

I have a fairly good feeling I'm one of the furthest away from that mall.

Canadian to American Life exchange rate. 2 American lives are equivalent to 30 Canadian lives.

Those numbers are normally just pulled out of the officials' asses.

I hope they have found everyone there is to find in there.
