    For me OToole seems too angry old white guy to have appeal. I think McKay is a better bet. We need a more youthful guy to go against Trudeau and a guy to can flip a region like the maritimes. There are easily 10 seats the CPC should be able to flip out there.

    The target isn't the LPC, its Trudeau. He wont survive another minority govt. and Freakland is in no way ready to take over.

Rumour is that they might not be allowed in Tahiti either which makes things interesting. Plan B is taking them to Hawaii instead. We told them there’s worse places than the South Pacific to be stuck especially this time of year.

        Meanwhile the cat overhaul got completed and we moved it out to a bush quarter that will be hopefully growing cow chow instead of poplars and willows this summer.


        It was nice to see it leave the yard and head out to battle purring like a kitten.

        The cows and yearlings are still picking away at the corn stalks which I never expected them to keep going at willingly. Giving them some barley and silage bales for supplement and I’m liking the stuff more everyday.



        Booked a few more acres of seed over last year and looking forward to getting it in the ground.

        Nothing better than making new land!

          I know that when I look at what our ancestors did to clear land out here it still boggles the mind. I can’t imagine what they felt like getting to the “end of the trail” 99 years ago and knowing they had to stay since they were broke and couldn’t go anywhere else. I love our hills and muskeg but they passed through a lot of nicer ground to get here. 😉

            Woodland is it just you and your parents doing all the work? You have a lot on the go and must never sleep.

            Good to hear your parents are enjoying some time off. I read lots about your mom in your posts, wasn’t sure your dad was around.

            Do you have enough trees that you can someone to pay you to log it and then just push stumps?

              Poorboy my wife(best ever), twin brother (it’s like we think the same .......... most of the time) and an amazing hired cousin round out the crew here. My FIL comes out for some tractor time and working cows occasionally which is nice and greatly appreciated too. We enjoy what we do and “usually” don’t regard it as work.

              The neighbours and us had a logging crew in a few years ago but they left after continually butting heads with the oil companies over crossing pipelines. I’m not sure that ripping stumps would be any quicker than what we’re doing now. They did 80 acres of ours and we left it after and the stumps took a long time to get rotten enough to run a disk over. No shortage of trees but the mill is 250 km away so the logs were only worth $2 a tonne anyway.

              I am a blessed man. 😎

                Nothing better than the smell of the ground as you break new land with a cat. It’s a high.

                Again I ask where are all the liberals that voted for Trudeau. Are you happy with your choice?

                Come on I said after a few months something is mentally wrong with him. Spoiled brat.


                Liberals the cancer that ended canada. Thank a liberal.
