Trudeau on Rice Lake Tomorrow Friday the 13th

and then you have graphs like this that show Greenland is still colder than a thousand years ago when it was named Greenland , giving credence to the statement that " Figures never lie but liars figure " guess it boils down to whose Bull you want to believe -
Personally Bernier is my current best of the litter in this brood.

Yes , and there is also the oft used " Order in Council " that makes changes behind our backs. In the case of the RCMP and the Firearms Act ,they are running roughshod over the wording and what they are allowed to do as if they have their own agenda. Case in point here is this airbow being prohibited as it is a bullpup design while I can go to a sporting goods store and buy a Norinco T97 semi auto bullpup design in 5.56 mm. as an unrestricted firearm , also the current situation with the CZ 858 Spartan, some engraving makes it prohibited while previous unengraved models are not , defies logic and the wording of the act.

Kevin is a flaming red Tory, won't get far with the core Conservatives. He should pull a Jean Charest and run as a Liberal .

Call me a racist, but if I was in the business of renting huts, guiding, charter boat, lodge or something of that nature I would demand my clientele abide by the Fish and Game regulations. If I found them to be in contravention of the regulations I would see that they are charged but if pulling a status card allows them to betray my trust and thumb their noses at me and the law, they are not welcome at my business. That being said, this guy is obviously a train off the rails with some of the stuff but I do see his point on the status thing.

Johnny Law needs a refresher course, they are pretty much judge and jury too .

The only times I have encountered " Stunting " is on small bodies of water that have a population far in excess of the available food supply, couple of farm ponds just loaded with silver dollar sized bluegills as a kid come to mind and a few beaver ponds similarly loaded with 4" brookies that attack anything that hits the water like pirranhas. Thinning the herd in both cases would increase the quality of the fish.

Long range forecast here for the next 10 days, above freezing , even at night except for tonight which is 30 F , grass is actually looking greener.

Ya think, been a firearms owner for over fifty years in this country, gone from being a 14 year kid going into the local hardware store with 40 cents I think it was to by a box of 22 shorts for his single shot, to this system that is so convoluted that you can't even get a straight answer from the people that are supposed to know, and they are making the laws up as they go along, maybe we should allow to OPP to amend the Highway Traffic Act at their discretion while we are at it.

The bullpup design is a load of krap from the RCMP, there are several rifles of bullpup design that are legal in Canada, the Norinco T97 comes to mind immediately. This is what happens when you allow the RCMP to make their own rules rather than pass them in parliament and then feed misinformation to the public. Hope nobody owns any over 10 capacity mags for their Ruger 10-22, probably the most popular rimfire semi auto out their cause you are now in possesion of a prohibited device cause the pony police decided to prohibit them .

The shirt is long gone, but I saved the shoulder patches somewhere from when I worked for them, says "Dept of Lands and Forests "

As long as you don't try to breed a Ko-Wal-Ski

As a fan my mind still flashed " here we go again " when the Sens tied it and I was still nervous with a 2 goal lead with under 3 minutes left.

Most of my life there was no limit on panfish and perch, though I recall there was always a 50 limit on perch on Lake Mendemoya on Manitoulin even in the sixties. I can see putting a limit on pressured inland lakes but to have a perch limit on Erie when fishing in sight of commercial net markers is sort of rubbing salt in a wound. You all forget there is a kill factor to catch and release, an optimist may put it around 10% and a pessimist maybe 20%, anyone that fishes hard on a long weekend and catches and released several times his limit each day has probably killed more fish than the dude who put the first 5 keepers on his stringer. edit: sorry I am primarily a salmon / trout guy so I said 5, guess bass and pickerel are 6 but you get my drift.

There was a day when the original six farm teams were organized so that I recall Hamilton being a Redwing town, St Catharines was a Blackhawk town and Niagara Falls was a Bruins town. Check out the NHL alumni of the St.Catharines TeePees of the 50's, just about everyone of the 50/60's Chicago Blackhawks came through that club https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St._Catharines_Teepees

I bet the OP misspoke himself and actually meant carbon monoxide detector.

All the Shooting Sports forums have outed him as not being firearms friendly and as a lot of firearms enthusiasts are also card carrying Conservatives he might not go far. Maxine Bernier seems to be the pro gun choice so far. -
Before the internet we had issues with magazines being spot burners, the OFAH had a separate mag for a while before being an insert in "Ontario Out of Doors" and Cronzy had a newsprint rag that burned a lot of steelheading locations. Also a host of TV shows, Red Fisher was in the clear as he was at Plummer's most of the time or some other pricey outpost lodge, but Going Fishin and a few others featured easily accessible destinations. Also we would get our hands on the previous years Molson's Big Fish Awards results , location date and baits of the ten best fish of every species of the past year all in one.

Most of my listening is internet radio, I have Winamp media player on every device I own from phone to desktop. I assume most media players have a play url option or something similar. Anyone with a similar taste in blues and blues/rock welcome to try these from my favourites file in Winamp.

All is not lost OI, I see the Zanzibar is still on Yonge. Do you remember the Old Victory Burlequse Theatre on Spadina at Dundas? went there first year university in 69, think it closed shortly thereafter. Classic old school burlesque . -
The front mount works great if both motors are mounted on the transom, I tried the threaded rod ball joint route for a couple of years but the geometry of the main on the transom and the kicker on the bracket when lowered to operating position was far back of the main and lower as well resulting in a rod that was crookeder than dog's hind leg and prone to binding, the back of the motor connection was straight across and worked flawlessly.

thirty some years ago I went for an EZ Steer, was and still is ridiculously expensive for what you get, but works well http://www.ezsteer.com/

I may not be very metric literate but isn't minus forty the same on both scales so they actually would track pretty close down there.
