Yes....the only worse than rules that make no sense are people that don't. IMHO my neighbours property is his own, to do with as he pleases. What difference can it possibly make how close a shed is to a fence? Isn't it better closer so you don't have to worry about that little strip of land growing huge weeds cause you can't mow it?? Manure is legal in almost every town since they banned most pesticides and fertilizers. Maybe a fresh coating of well aged manure on your flower beds is in order...lol.

As much as it would hurt, I think i would start looking elsewhere. This condition rarely reoccurs, but it is an auto-immune disorder and in order to combat it, they have to medicate the pup to shut its immune system down for awhile. I have had several goldens, but never ran into this issue before. There is a lot at stake, and you really want to start off with a healthy pup.

When I lived in Fonthill, it was all pretty straight forward stuff..nobody really cared what the neighbour did and likely most of us were violating an ordinance or two, but we all had big lots ( 1 acre ) and backed onto farms. The town actually go tired of responding to burn complaints for people burning leaves or having bonfires, so the legalized it instead... just had to do leaf burning during daylight hours and bonfires were fine as long as you had a designated pit or chiminea. Now St Catharines has more rules, but everyone on the street seems to be on the same page. We each have a small fire pit, we all keep our dogs in after 11 PM, we don't care how tall your fence is, we check with our neighbours before we build anything and basically keep the town out of it. We have bylaws for building new things but not much for replacing or repairing existing things. The city came by after my neighbour redid his porch and asked me what was there before...I said looks the same to me....the officer said their records indicate the porch was much smaller before...I said it probably looked that way cause of the trees...lol. He left satisfied with that answer, even though it made no sense.

Do ya think they leak news out like this so people will go and buy beer to horde before the prices go up???

The article has been taken down, sir. However, you must understand protocol and know that the proper method of complaint for infringement is to contact a site administrator and speak to them (us). We would then confirm your status as the articles copyright holder and then make things right. A more effective fix would have been a link back to your website at the end of the article and considering the traffic we generate in a day, would have been some nice free advertising for you. We are quite fair and easy to get along with here. Calling someone out this way doesn't do you any good. Don't get me wrong, we don't like violations, but it should always be handled professionally. I hope you agree.

What he said.....

I agree with you fully John, but I think the part of having to pay $400 for a variance request is far beyond reasonable. These people already got paid. It is not a pay per service idea, it is a deterrent. It reminds me of the towns that don't let you park your boat in your own driveway. Good ideas completely blown to heck. Nothing makes people dumber than to put them into an organized committee...

that was mean....true, but mean..sigh.

I can't decide between Chris and Dan, myself.

Bacon makes everything better..lol Awesome vids!

On that note....

Don't believe anything you read on that crappy website...lol.

Total team effort, Billy Bob. Roy has been doing the bulk of the work. However, Marty has done nothing...but he's just eye candy anyway...lol.

Maybe it was an Atlantic Salmon.... Sorry...someone had to say it..lol. Can't wait to see the pics. I have noticed musky from St Clair have very oddly coloured fins..maybe a local colour thing?

Me and my boys are thinking of you. Our deepest condolences to you and your family.

We had to disable the Mass PM feature. Most of you probably didn't use it anyway, but PM's have to be done one at a time now. We apologise for the inconvenience but the new spamming software being used is slightly ahead of the software to combat it. We hope this makes it more difficult for the spammers and makes us too much trouble and they will move on. All the admins have been very busy blocking and deleting accounts, but they kept coming right back...so we kinda had to play hardball. We have taken other measures..some a bit more drastic than we wanted to, but the software we are up against is far more complicated than anything I have run into before. Its all over the internet the last few weeks. Should we find a way to combat it more effectively we can turn the Mass PM feature back on. The next generation software for the site will have more effective controls from what I have read, so until then we will keep doing what we can. Should you get any new spam PM's please let me know. Again, our apologies for the inconvenience and hopefully these dude's give up soon. Oh yeah, if you go on vacation to either Senegal, South Africa or the Ivory Coast, you won't be able to access the site...lol.

My mom is a by-law officer. Yes, they can come on your property to investigate a complaint. A $400 fee to ask for an adjustment hearing is pretty bad. But, if you did it then it is part of the price, unfortunately. If it was there before you moved in, you have a good argument.

I like to use Carolina rig when using crayfish, myself

I would guess it is far from where it was taken by now. The last boat theft ring ended up being in Quebec somewhere IIRC.

It's Roy. And he is VERY popular.

Have you hugged your carp today?

Gee...I picked Dave but he didn't pick me...lol. Just saw the video...funny!!!

Seriously??? For a pick up?? I'd be afraid to drive it let alone haul anything with it!!

Or an easy way to make 20 million dollars from the widow of Dr Sumbuddy.
