Cool Interesting Article in Montreal La Presse

With the recent explosion our dollar has had, the friday (11/10/2007) Montreal La Presse (a french newspaper) did a big article about how not only is it more worth it to go across the border, but a lot of items that are not allowed in Quebec due to language laws can be found at our American neighboors. The article showed the 20th Aniversary DVD Optimus Prime and mentioned how he was not allowed in the Province of Quebec due to his "ANGLO ONLY" voice chip....... oh Quebec... *sigh* Anyhow, just an interesting article to pick up if you can get it (I know it's a little late).
Here is a little scan of part of it:

Re: Interesting Article in Montreal La Presse

I don't know why the article said there were no 20th DVD Prime. I personnaly saw more than 2 dozens of them (and bought 2 for myself) at various stores like TRUs and even BestBuy (who had a Prime + '86 movie DVD bundle). There are even 4-5 of these, as we speak, at a local store call Legends on St-Hubert. True, it is a hobby shop but that doesn't change anything in terms of language and laws. Before you all head there to grab Prime, be advised that they charge $150 for each Prime.
