A nervous taxpayer was unhappily conversing with the Revenue Canada Tax auditor who had come to review his records. At one point the auditor exclaimed, "Sir, we feel it is a great privilege to be allowed to live and work in Canada. As a citizen you have an obligation to pay taxes, and we expect you to eagerly pay them with a smile."

"Thank goodness," responded the man with a giant grin on his face from ear to ear, "I thought you were going to want me to pay with cash."
