Sick's Fee

Canada has free universal health care. Well, as free as it can get, they pay for it out of income taxes and sales taxes. A longstanding Canadian tradition requires each citizen to set aside that amount of money he or she would usually have to spend on medical insurance, and to use it to help others in need. The "Sick's Fee" is the name assigned to that money, and by law it must be spent on, or given to, some other Canadian who is need of something, whether that be a new roof, clean beaver pelt clothing, maple syrup or an exhibit of Canadiana. The Sick's Fee is the "pay it forward" component in the Constitution. How does this cash get spent? Well, the finest examples of the art of making maple tree taps has been gathered for display on a planned new web site. "SicksFeeTapArt.ca" is just one more twisted and bored Canadian's view of how to help his fellow man to survive COVID-19. You can have fun even if you are not Canadian. Just contribute ONE photo which exemplifies any artistic creation that in some tiny, remote, humorous way refers to the word "tap". Just 3 simple letters... but a world of untapped possibilities!
