Bowmanville Creek in Ontario, Canada, yesterday, just down the highway from me.
I called out and reported a large group like this snagging spawning King Salmon with large treble hooks in Duffins Creek at the Valley Farm Road bridge in Pickering, Ontario. They had at least 5 fish flopping on the bank. I called MNR and the Police, both said there was nothing they could do, I even went to Pickering Police station just down the road, in person, spoke to 3 cops at the desk and they informed me that they don't deal with such incidents as it's not their responsibility, and there wasn't anything they could do.
I don't even bother anymore, these criminals have get out of jail free cards, it's pointless.
COPIED FROM JOE BECIGNEUL: THIS IS PROBABLY GOING TO TICK SOME PEOPLE OFF, AND I HOPE IT DOES. BUT I’M GOING TO KEEP ON SHARING IT AND SAYING IT. AND ONCE AGAIN, I AM NOT A SWIFTIE, BUT I AM A HUMAN BEING, A DAD AND, A MONSTROUS FOOTBALL FAN.
I am extremely disappointed in so many of you who think that "not being a fan" of someone means you're entitled to shit all over them.
I want to remind you of something.
Your children are watching you complain about Taylor Swift sitting at a football game, being happy, and cheering for a man she loves in what appears to be a very loving, respectful relationship.
Your Children are watching you judge a woman for literally just EXISTING and taking up space happily.
And you know what? Ms. Swift has won 324 awards? How many do you have?
She brought $5 BILLION dollars in consumer spending and boosted the U. S. economy so significantly, that leaders from other countries actually beg for her to play there?
Did you know that there are over 20 college courses about her skills as an artist, lyricist, and musician - including at places like Harvard, Stanford & UC Berkeley?
Did you know that Taylor Swift quietly donates mass amounts of money to local food banks in every city she performs in?
AND DID YOU KNOW …
That Taylor Swift was sexually assaulted by a radio DJ, and she got him fired? When he sued HER for over $3 million for defamation, she counter sued for a symbolic $1 in a court case that took 2 YEARS for her to win. And, she did that just to show women that fighting for what's right has no price tag & to never be silent in the face of oppression.
WELL IF YOU DON’T CARE BY NOW, YOU SHOULD.
Because your daughters, nieces, and your nephews are watching you run your mouth. And they are seeing the world hate a woman who does so much good, simply because she exists in their line of sight.
DO BETTER PEOPLE.
Teach your boys to respect women. Teach your girls that as women - they are ALLOWED to take up space.
Fix it. Become aware of your words. Because we all have the ability and the obligation to fight for the future of our children with simple moments. And we need to consciously choose to be better for them.

I never watched Lloyd Robertson, Knowlton Nash and Peter Mansbridge host The National and thought the CBC was "government-controlled", or should be "de-funded". Nor do I do so now with Adrienne Arsenault and Ian Hanomansing at the helm. Speak up if you agree.

I am not an expert by any stretch on US politics and how their government works so I have serious question here. How is it that Donald Trump is not already in jail? What exactly would a US president have to do to be found guilty of treason and sedition?

Anyone else so tired of @Sflecce being touted as an expert? Apparently @fordnation listens to medical experts for health care...why not listen to educational experts? And no...I don’t mean corporations that sell educational products. 😒
Hey Norwell! We hope that you all had a nice long weekend. Remember that as we return to distance learning it is important to continue to stay positive and safe! #NorwellCares

Trump just fired the Inspector General overseeing the relief package. And threatened another who reported PPE shortages.
Inspectors General are charged with doing independent oversight and exposing corruption.
Their job is to uncover the truth.
Exactly why Trump fears them.
