who employs me
I am a staff writer with CTV.ca News. That operation is part of CTV News, which is of course nestled into CTV Inc. and CTVglobemedia.

I don't speak for my employer on this blog. I don't comment about the internal affairs of my employer.

Any views expressed here are my own.
View Article  Did you hear?

It's snowing in Toronto tonight. Started this afternoon.

Will probably snow some more tomorrow.

You might not have heard, so I thought I'd tell you.

Addendum

You might want to rent Last Night, if you're looking for a DVD this weekend. Seeing we're at the end of days and all.

View Article  Now that was positive feedback!

I went fishing on Lake Simcoe today, bagging two big whitefish (I estimate five to six pounds each. I let them go).

The MNR officer told me I probably had the best day of anyone he checked to that point (woo-hoo!).

Alas, I didn't bag a lake trout, which would not have been returned to its watery home. Instead, it would have been moved to its new residence in my freezer.

The one downer about the fish cop's little visit was the 9mm semi-automatic handgun worn openly on his right hip.

Well, there's no reason al Qaeda-linked terrorists or Colombian drug lords couldn't also be out ice-fishing, I suppose.

While there might be times when MNR officers need to be armed (poaching investigations, for example), is checking fishing licences on a Friday afternoon one of them?

PS

I shudder to think what might have happened had I forgotten my fishing licence at home. :)
