sometimes you never know...maybe it is slow simply because it is summer time and many people are away on holiday and so things are more "sluggish"...
if we all notice, Canadians do focus on family a lot and take time off for trips and cottage...so maybe things are slower and a bit random because many are on leave and people who are not have to take on more...and Government employees do get a good chunk of time off...and this is their time to enjoy a bit too...
just thinking of a regular plain explanation... I know it is easy for us to let our imagination run wild too on why this...or why that ? In many places, during the summer time work does grind to a slow and snail's pace ....
Keep the faith guys....
