Headhunter

It's worth the drive to Powasson especially when you save a ton o cash!!! Thanks for the report, you guys needed your good luck charm for the Pickereyes... a certain bass playing headhunter would have put you guys right on the fish! LOL Okay, that certain person would probabaly have kept you guys on the couch, watching movies! LMAO Glad you had fun, no one can claim you don't have a heart anymore WIll! See you in a couple of weeks Bernie! HH

What a great pic! Kinda reminds me of the many faces sitting around the table at our Quinte GTG! LOL HH

Flipper Pie! HH

Thanks Pete and Happy B-Day to you! HH

My wife surprised me with this cake for my 50th birthday... she also got me the real thing to go with it! HH

I pefer cucumbers for Whitefish... That's one massive Whitie... congrats and thanks for sharing... HH

I would say that her choice of wardrobe is not particularly flattering... HH

Drool..... HH

I eat what I want, when I want... Just know, that I'll be smilin when I hear some of you guys groan, when yer carrying my over weight box at my funeral! Salad is not a meal, it's a promisary note of food to come... sage words to live by! Chicken is not meat, why else do they have a poultry section at the grocer store? Pop will kill yah! LOL HH

If you think buying fishing stuff in the U.S. and having it shipped to Canada is bad, try buying a guitar from a U.S. retailer and have them us UPS... the gorillas in the distribution centre have a thing for guitars, but only if the guitar is in more than once piece! And how many of us would like UPS to just drop the package at the front door... sure a $2k guitar is sitting on my front step, for the world to take... and they probably would, if the guitar hadn't already been dropped 20 ft at the distribution centre... such a deal to pay brokerage fees for a busted up instrument! HH

I remember as a kid, my Dad called them "Michigan Wobblers"... HH

I saw on the news last night that outside of Vancouver and the Island, the warmest place in Canada yesterday was .... Whitehorse! -9C.... HH

That'll put hair on yer chest like barb wire! Brrrrrrr.... HH

Oh my... HH

I just wanted to thank you to everyone who has posted in this thread. A special thanks to the mods for allowing this conversation to continue. I have learned a lot from the various points of view here and I hope to continue to learn more as this thread and the movement mature. I may not agree with many points of view, but I do believe in the right to express ones self... Dialogue is going to be the path that leads to answers so lets let the dialogue continue. HH

I have to agree with you Captain! I have been to Nip for the last four openers, arriving mid day Friday, before the opener. Seems every year, we sit out and enjoy the great weather on Friday, wishing we could wet a line, only to awake Saturday morning to a snow storm, driving rain or fire and brimstone! Being able to wet a line on the Friday would be great! HH

Maybe we should make up our own Idle No More posters and blockade the fish processing plant on Nip... since the depletion of all species in the lake due to gill netting is not conducive to mother nature's continued well being.. HH

Then they shoud shut down some highways and rail lines and disrupt peoples lives in Great Britain... I prefer to think of it as "rent to own"... and I've paid a lot of rent over the years. HH

You forgot these... 5. Because Idle No More is challenging mainstream images and stereotypes of passive/victimized indigenous subjects and providing visibility for alternative voices 6. Because Idle No More is raising unprecedented awareness regarding the Right of Indigenous Peoples and the rights of Canadian inhabitants 7. Because Idle No More provides an opportunity to re-think social, political and economic relations in ways that include environmental, spiritual, and communitarian values 8. Because as immigrants we have the responsibility to engage in dialogue with the original peoples of these lands! I have very low expectations of the accomplishment of government, regardless of who is running it. I simply care about how much I have to pay and am I getting my money's worth. You get that way after a while... HH

Our country's economy is heavily weighted in the resource sector. Our ability to globally compete, strictly from a labour perspective is virtually gone. A have province like Ontario is now a have not province. So, our PM (duly elected) decides to push through legislation that will limit special interest groups ability to tie up money making ventures for years.He is using our our country's best assetts... resources. What should our PM do, let our country fall into a third world status as the current third world catches up to us. We have to sell our resources to have any kind of economic future. No economy, no money for anyone. RE Captain Hooks point above... I agree and to those who may not, take a drive by Ipperwash and have a good look... custodians of the land... ha! HH

Aboringal Sovernty would mean self sufficiency to me… and we all know that aint gonna happen. HH ..

I don't see my group anywhere in that list... opps, yes I do, at the very top where it indicates how much tax payers give annually. HH

Hypothetically, should the Idle No More protests get their demands met, will this end what seems to be an endless cycle of protest, poverty etc...or is the only solution for non natives to return their or their ancestors country of origin? From what I've seen and yes, it may be only what the media wants me to see, but it sure seems to me that we have two "nations" fighting over the same land. So to the poster who asked, aren't we all Canadians, it seems not. HH

Well, I have tried tickling a fishes bottom with a feather hoping it would die of laughter, but that never worked. The finger trick was my second option... aplumma, you're a wise man... HH
