dude,, they close Niagara falls in Jan.because it the height of hockey, beer drinking and seal meat cooking season.mmmmm seal meat

If you get a chance, Newfoundland and Labrador is worth a serious look. The people generally are unlike other Canadians, stronger instincts for home and community, smart as hell culturally, literature especially, the arts---and the landscapes unlike anything else in Canada. Our Chris Dawe, currently beating off quail in Arizona, is another Newfoundland treasure, lives a few miles outside capital of St. John's. I once asked the chancellor of McGill University in Montreal, Cyril James, who he thought were the smartest Canadians. He demurred, said it was impossible to say. Well, guess, I said. He said Newfoundlanders. Why? I don't know, he said, it may be their schools or we get the best of them. From my experience from outports to premier offices, they're at the top of the heap.

Seal meat, mmm? Ever tried it? I lived with Inuit on an island in the Beaufort Sea in western Arctic for a couple weeks. Muktuk was a delicacy, blubber in condensed milk covered with cranberries. Couldn't get it down. Seal flippers, inedible, the smell almost impossible to get rid of. The Inuit were gracious in assigning me to a tent with two sleeping places on the ground separated by a stove, and a handsome woman called Kloona to look after full-time needs. (A born-Baptist boy couldn't do anything wrong!)

Don't forget to mention that because of the all importance of the 'popular' vote, they'll never be able to determine their own circumstances and future. The big cities will impose the power of multiculturalism on the fractured and voiceless rural struggler, I mean welcome them into the big tent.

Pooch, I find myself in the same position, but not just with Quebeckers. While I can generalize with the best of them, in my personal life, I try to judge each man on his own merits and I am a bit oblivious to colour or creed. I find when I do that I'm less likely to be wrong about THAT man.

As far as Niagara goes, it's a tourist town and they are just responding to demand. I used to travel there about 4 times a year to see some clients....every time I'd go look at the Falls, especially in winter. Find myself awed every time. Besides, it's nicer when the crowds aren't there.

The Falls are a bit like when I lived in Banff for 3 1/2 years. Absolutely delighted to walk out my door each day, winter or summer and see the magnificent beauty of where I was living. It NEVER got old for me and neither do the Falls!

I think you know that the British colony of Newfoundland considered joining the United States or Canada, decided for latter March 31, 1949---not without great reluctance of a proud people embracing the "wolf" Canada.

It has been sovereign in protecting its own interests including those of large communities of Innu and Inuit, and significantly and collectively made huge sacrifices to the national interest in the Canadian value of resource-sharing.

Its Churchill Falls and Muskrat Falls, now coming on line, keeps north-east US snug, warm and lights burning with clean energy, without a thought of anyone imposing decisions on Newfoundland, multiculturally or otherwise.

Newfoundlanders buttle to no one, including the Seven Sisters who tried mightily.

I understand the hockey and wanting to stay indoors and drink beer, but seal meat? I've eaten snakes, tree bark and even a skunk. Only thing of value I have learned from that experience is to be careful what I order in a chinese restaurant.

But seal meat; how does it compare to a Whooping Crane?

The whining pouting crybaby fraud Little King Brown keeps clinging to the popular vote total. But all that proves is his complete lack of understanding and accepting the rules of the U.S. Election process. If it went the other way, he and Liberal democrats would be lecturing us about being sore losers who wish to change the rules after the fact. Does everyone here recall the hue and cry about Donald Trump actually having the nerve to question the integrity of the final ballot during the last Presidential Debate. The same people who are complaining the loudest now are the ones who said Trump's statement during the debate disqualified him as a serious contender for office.

If popular vote was the sole determining factor, the candidates would have naturally used an entirely different strategy during the campaign, They would have spent their time and money in population centers where they thought they could get the most voters to come out and cast a ballot for them on election day. Instead, they concentrated on the so-called battleground states and pretty much ignored those places that were going to be an almost certain Electoral Vote loss. Trump was astute enough to get more than enough Electoral College votes to win easily. And he did it without spending anything close to what Hillary spent in her campaign of smearing and attempting to get the voters to ignore her many flaws.

Little King still has not shown us where Putin lied about Hillary, which is in stark contrast to Little King's total lies he made about Trump. So who is the sleazy one there?

If there was no Electoral College, it is safe to say that the outcome would have been no different because there is ample evidence that Little King's precious Liberal Left Socialism is on the downswing. We see it in every other branch of government from the Federal to the State and Local level. And it isn't just here in the U.S. that the masses are finally responding to the many failures of Socialism. Check the Oct. 3, 2016 TIME MAGAZINE article, "Europe Swings Right", pg. 30. Here's a link for crybaby Little King. The only wine he has been producing is made from sour grapes and is diluted with his tears.

Oh yeah, I noticed that Rocky Mtn Bill slipped out the back door once again, after getting caught in more of his Libtard lies and bullshit. I was really hoping he'd take my offer of a bet over his cowardly and false accusation that I was lying about proper lubrication for an MMC Checkering tool. When I said I wanted to make a substantial wager, I was thinking enough money to hurt him financially, and maybe a few guns to boot. But it's hard to show courage of convictions when you are sneaking out the back door with your tail between your legs. Right Billy?

I've heard wonderful things about Banff from everyone who has been there. It is definitely on my bucket list, but don't know if I'm going be able to pull it off.

There is a commercial about running a Land Rover down the Inferno ski run. The inference is it takes a mighty car to make that run. The Inferno starts in Murren Switzerland on the Shilthorn across from from the north face of the Yungfrau and runs to Kleine Scheidegg at the base of the Eiger. I love that Inferno and it's a shame to call that run the Inferno, though it's not a run for everybody, it's not that tough and if you have skied Banff it should be no problem. What is special about it is it has to be the most beautiful run in the world. It is the scenery more then slope that makes it so very spectacular and world famous.

King, perhaps the sisters should bring in a minority, single mom to try to tip the scales?
