Yup I did. close to home we had one at a bus stop yesterday! Ontario’s population is increasing.

The first official, annual Thanksgiving in Canada was celebrated on 6 November 1879, though Indigenous peoples in Canada have a history of celebrating the fall harvest that predates the arrival of European settlers. Sir Martin Frobisher and his crew are credited as the first Europeans to celebrate a Thanksgiving ceremony in North America, in 1578. They were followed by the inhabitants of New France under Samuel de Champlain in 1606. The celebration featuring the uniquely North American turkey, squash and pumpkin was introduced to Nova Scotia in the 1750s and became common across Canada by the 1870s. In 1957, Thanksgiving was proclaimed an annual event to occur on the second Monday of October. It is an official statutory holiday in all provinces and territories except Prince Edward Island, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, and Newfoundland and Labrador. The first American was celebrated in 1621. We have the same tradions as our American cousins. I’m of European descent, our family learned the tradition and have celebrated for 58 years. My kids take it for granted.

To all OFC members and their family. We are celebrating today. Kids and lots of grands today (19) tomorrow they go to their respective in-laws. To our American friends come up and celebrate with us and then again in November. Have a safe long weekend. A

I bought one after the last ice storm from CT . Haven’t started it yet.

Dave, you are a master. I watch Mountain Men other outdoor programs in your part of the country and your documentation is way better especially than those Alaskan Bush guys. way better facilities too, 5-star by the looks of it.

Giving Italians a bad name the jerk! But then years ago I had one in Woody parked at a TD cash machine drive through. Selling leather jackets that had been at a fashion show near the airport and didn’t want to take them back to Italy! I can tell you bad Italian words, just in case.

I was selling my winter tires two years ago on KIjiji. Met the buyer at our offices, parking lot industrial area. Went outside behind a friend (6' 5") the buyer greeted him and he told him I was the seller. Paid cash quick and left. My friend was just going to get something out of his car

Is this a mandatory add on? i’ve Done cruises and all inclusive with my kids. Never had one, son in law gets up and reserves beach seats . . Want to visit we get a bus. like OI said cash grab. The Riu in Aruba has great service. never seen a butler and they were helpful on excersions, when needed.

Yes, I have one. Had to buy so we could photograph it an photoshop it on a guy in a canoe for a tourism book. It's like a vest, not bulky and is has styrofoam, front and back lots of pockets. . . . don't know the make. but can find out.

There is a report on 680 news a body has been found in Pickering shoreline. Sad news.

If he opens my email I just sent him, he will chime in.

I emailed him a while back and had come back from Florida. Never made to the Grand Canyon.

Hope it all ends well for Kevin.

Lew I should have joined the fire department! Typographer’s apprentices were making $46.

Remember him well. There was an Esso gas station at the corner of Westmount amd St Clair. The dealer looked a lot like him and dressed like him to the T and we would bring our bikes and he would fix them, didn’t like us jumping on the hose to ring the bell !!!!

When Art see this you guys are going to be pennisless.

OI again, sorry for your loss. My family went througt that with my dad. After and operation and after seeing him. They asked, what if, we said nothing he passed with an hour or so. Mom, we/they knew it was coming , and they kept her comfortable and passed on with no pain. I have seen people lay there for years and with no sign of recovery, why? Everyone suffers in this situation. When my mom was in, Dr Maida , An amazing person told us this is a war we can fight but the outcome will be the same. She was 90+ we let nature take her course and shortly after she passed. It will happen and why suffer.

Sorry for your loss OI, remember the great times you had with her. My father hadn’t seen a frozen lake until the early 80s, we walked out at 9th line ORO I pointed to the huts and flags flying in the distance, snow machines going back and forth at high speeds . . He looked at me and said “ voi sieti shemi” meaning you guys are crazy. He did like the white fish. Crazy you are but the fish are good!

Too much coffee with the bailies.

Just leave it, in this weather the AC is good lol

I’m in for those too. I’ll keep looking, still early. My farms close by have been shut down 1/2 mil condos are better . Only Longos and Fortino May have them. Bruce do you guys have any? But the cost of a day trip would not make it possible I believe.

OI ‘s friends have used those sinker for hundreds of years, they were’t fishing! just kidding OI. It has happened by accident at times.

? Bill quit giving hints , we need natural reproduction. NOT destruction. Marshmellows are bad for humans.

I was wondering the same thing. Serve those when the kids come a few times and they won’t be back lol. those light green hot jobs are amazing, I BBQ them and use them in pulled pork sandwiches. Just to give it a kick.

WRITE! Kids today can’t hold a pen, only two thumbs work! We’ll se what happens when their kids are up there! One of my daughters asked me it I had and old push button phone so she could teach her kids. That was a shock, I offered a dial and she refused. She never saw a dial model.
