You Wanted A Huge Rock...




Small-town mayors can be hard-working, good-natured gentlemen who know everyone in their county by their first name and hangs out in the same places his populace does. They can also be comical, ego-driven douchebags who use the law to their advantage and seek out nothing more than to extend their own benefits.

Somewhere along that scale lies Dany Larivière, mayor of St-Théodore-d'Acton, who delivered a giant boulder to his ex-wife as a birthday present, via an excavation company he owns.

What I like most is how he concludes the story:

"It's just an issue between me and my ex-wife," Lariviere said.
"I don't recommend people take actions like this."
 Yeah, neither do I.
