Here is a copy of the note I sent to Caledonia Chamber of Commerce and to city hall(?) I would ask anyone intrested in restoring a public park and launch back to the people to also write a note expressing your dissapointment. I was very disappointed this morning when I went to enjoy one of our public natural resources and found that I was unable to access the public boat launch on River Road. There was a locked gate preventing access, however another three individuals were there using the boat ramp, and they indicated to me that I was unable to use it as I did not have a key. The individuals in question were associated with Don Hyde marine located in Hagarsville. Two were potential clients test driving a boat, the other was a sales representative, who was allowing them to take a test drive. Why is public access blocked? I have enjoyed the use of that ramp for a number of years and as a member of the public feel that I have the right to access it as well. It should not be for a privileged few. Due to this situation, I then proceeded to spend my recreational dollars elsewhere. I will continue to do so as long as this situation exists. A typical fishing outing results in $25 - $100 of economic activity, do you wish to drive that economic activity out of your town? I find it ironic that there is a large sign asking the public to vote for Caledonia as Canada's fishing town, yet you have chosen to block public access to a public park built with public money. It is my request that this situation be changed immediately. Kind regards

Bump, 'cause it deserves one.

WOW!

There is an internal combustion engine that runs on water, A boat motor.

I thought you were refering to the Tracker on the pier.

Roy, it could have been an ear hole he was talking about

It is certain to be different then....

I don't, but I know where to get 'em. Want me to call for pricing? Let me know size and quantity. Don't forget I am part of the clod hopper mafia....

Hey Mike, I have a whole bunch of Populus tremuloides or even Populus tremula that you can have for the digging.....Plant 'em tight enough and in 5 years you'll have a solid wood fence.

This is a man who regularly drives to northern Quebec. So ya, i would agree. Have you considered rooting large cuttings Mike? I have some stimroot kicking around somewhere.

Any day is a great day to be a Canadian

Duccepe has taken his ball and gone home.

When my first choice does not have a candidate in my riding, it is very difficult to vote for them. Ergo, second choice.

Good on you all. As a parent it is my responsibility to discuss the issues at hand and give my children the tools they need to make a decision. If our dinner table discussions result in a single party being the one of choice, that is up to us as a family. Our party of choice does not even have a candidate in our riding, so we have to go to our second choice. It would be very nice if we could vote for whom we really wanted to vote for, but that won't happen until we move to the other side of the street. Our road is a borderline. My son and daughters are independant thinkers, they have pinned me to the wall many times with well thought out arguments. That makes me very proud of them and happy with the job my wife and I have done in raising them to be responsible adults.

Paul, Stop thinking about it and just "get 'er done!"

Voting or complaining? I have the honour of taking my just turned 18 year old son to the polls this afternoon. 2 more votes for our households party of choice. All of our children vote, it is un-thought-of to not vote.

Buy a piece of pheneloc plastic and glue that to the hull. Then you will not have any screws penetrating your hull.

Great looking dog!

WHAT! no water pressure gauge!?????

Um....never mind

Ya, but he has a tiller on the front..... Very nice ride Paul! I see why you were so excited.

So much for getting musky spots now..... Thanks for the heads up!

That is a classic!
