Yes

There are numerous Acts and Regulations that Ontario CO's both enforce and administer. As mentioned, the main one the Ontario Provincial Fish and Wildlife Conservation Act. Court appearance is an option if you don't want a CO to be both judge and jury. The other consideration for having a court appearance is violation of the Fish and Wildlife Conservation Act can lead to up to 2-years imprisonment for Commercial Offenses and up to 1-year for General Offenses.

It would be hard to prove that a taking a picture of a fish is actually "possession". As for criminal charges, COs in Ontario enforce the Fish and Wildlife Conservation Act. The majority of penalties are fines and equipment seizures with no effect on your criminal record.

Nope, here is what I posted in the first page of this thread on the 16th: Regardless of Nash in the lineup, Leafs are not getting past first round without a goalie. Probably won't make the playoffs with who they have in net now.

Kashagawigamog is in zone 15 and walleye is open until March 15.

I've been a fan for over 40 years but a realistic one, haven't said anything regarding the "P" word this year. Except in this thread and them not making it with the current goaltender situation. The result of the Kessel deal can't be determined for a couple years, his personality and other non-hockey traits are a result of his youth. Even though Phaneuf doesn't win "Most Popular", where the dressing room stands now is light years ahead of where Ferguson had it. The worst seed in that room was Jason Blake and we are a far better team now with that negativity and bad attitude gone.

Yep get what you can for Kadri - a potential career minor leaguer. Gabowski is unrestricted at the end of the season so could be gone anyway so get what you can. Remember our hero Sundin as he left after his contract expired and signed with Vancouver, Leafs go squat. Regardless of Nash in the lineup, Leafs are not getting past first round without a goalie. Probably won't make the playoffs with who they have in net now.

Vance, never did get to meet up with you at White Birches. Hopefully Mattawa is good to you.

To keep it straight I am not a realtor. In the last 18 months I have used a realtor to sell a house which meant I needed to buy a house and I also purchased a cottage. Each time I felt the realtor exceeded my expectation. They all worked hard for me and I felt they earned every penny they made. If you ask realtors I believe they would prefer to represent buyers rather than list properties. Representing the purchaser typcially guarantees a 2.5% commission and can be an enjoyable experience. Listing a house is where they are most challenged and also stem to make the least commission. On my house sale, the listing agent was paid 1% and that is what we negotiated into the relationship. In sales today, there are customers that are easy to deal with and who represent little work for the sales person and then there are customers who are challenging and take more time for the sale. Does that mean the commission should be any different, maybe, but it's not. Typically commission is based on profit made and most easygoing customers are willing to pay more so actually salespeople make less on the more difficult customers. Depending on your requirements will determine whether or not a realtor is required. We hear about the commissions paid to realtors on the easy to sell homes and for some what is paid out is not justified by the effort put forth. But we never hear about the ones that took a long time to sell, with the amount of marketing required and in some of those cases a realtor may loose money. I am all for staggered commission rates for the industry maybe one way of staggering is the amount of time the property is listed. I think any good realtors would support it. Instead of writing off realtors entirely, I think what people need to do is assess your needs and make their decision accordingly. Just because your needs do not require their service does not necessarily mean they do a bad job. A wise person once said, never judge or criticize a person until you have walked a mile in their moccasins. Talk to people who have used private listings and have had their home stay on there a long time and as a result these people have had to endure numerous showings, inquiries, etc., which would normally be taken care of by a realtor. And here's one from the bleachers, from a local sports perspective, realtors are one of a number of industries that support numerous local and minor league sport initiatives. Not to mention the arts, education, environment....

It depends on what you're selling. If it's a good starter home in a good neighbourhood that is priced accordingly then using an agent may not be your best option. Some houses are not straight-forward to sell. Our sale last year was a renovated farmhouse on 7 acres with outbuildings and required a unique buyer. I don't think I was an idiot for giving real estate for my money as it was listed for almost a year and our agents worked very hard for us.

I have not used Property Guys but did use ByTheOwner for a short time as a bridge between listing my property with a realtor. We did receive a few leads with ByTheOwner and felt the service did what we wanted. Eventually the home sold but it was due to the efforts of the realtor. Like any business there are good people and bad people and depending on what your requirements are you should be able to find one to suit your needs. Everything is negotiable with the listing agent. We interviewed 4 different agents and asked their strategy prior to making our decision. If you are selling in Barrie or Simcoe County I have not problem referring the agents we used as they exceeded our expectations. PM for the realtors name if you want.

It would be very easy to update or create a pleasure craft license and place in your boat without filling out the forms and going through the paperwork exposing yourself to an HST remittance request. I am not suggesting anyone commit fraud, I'm just saying what I'm thinking out loud.

Here is the document you need to fill out and submit to change the ownership: http://www.tc.gc.ca/wwwdocs/Forms/84-0172E_1007-04_E.pdf

FDIC does have limits to what is insured. The only way to get unlimited funds insured by FDIC is to have them sitting in noninterest-bearing transaction accounts which is only temporary as the unlimited FDIC coverage on these accounts is set to expire December 31, 2012. I suspect there will be limits placed on them after this date.

Brooks Cottages is on Caribou Lake just outside Port Loring. Forrest Lodge is near Armstrong on another Caribou Lake: http://www.forrestlodge.com/

Hey Roy, wasn't the guy in the yellow shirt in Hangover and Hangover2? Yeah, it's Mr. Chow -- I think he's about to say "We had a sick night......." right at the end.

Has to be a hoax or that rod has the flexibility of an extra stiff driver shaft.

I know what he's trying to do and you're correct to say the results will be skewed. I guess the client will learn how competitive the Ontario fishing show industry is and what people will do to get an edge on their peers.

Well there goes the independent survey angle. I guess an asterisk should go on the results now.

I thought you said there was fishing in that video.

I bought a cottage last year and part of the furnishings in the place was a stack of OOD magazines that date back to the seventies. Some are proudly stored in the detached bathroom where people sit and reads words you wrote decades ago. Some are in the indoor washroom as well.

Although your client may want to live the dream with a fishing show I personally think we have enough serving the Ontario market. And for some of them, I think too many. But if he or she can get enough support (read sponsor money) to move forward then have at 'er and good luck.

Likely that was Lawren Wetzell who is now employed by Radioworld.
