	In London and area, the downtown post office of London also
	follows the same midnight policy on deadline day.

	I was shocked when the University gave me a T2202a.
	I am a part-time grad student [somewhat] working on my
	thesis, while not at my full time job.
	As I am a THESIS student, I get to claim my $50
	per month (ie $600) from my Net income even thought I am only
	part-time! Please correct me if i'm wrong Dave.
