Francis: We had guys running Environment forever. None of them were as supportive of hunters as Nancy has been. She not only listens to concerns and acts on them, she's a hunter herself. Nope, I'd be happy to have her in that role for as long as possible. Our guy Premier will one day move her along to another portfolio but I have seen more positive changes on the hunting scene since she came along than for decades prior. As for those RCMP's, the ladies have been part of it since 1973. The previous head of the RCMP was one of those 1973 ladies, so there is no "last bastion" left. We have lots of room for old country boys though, so not to worry. Here's a little "fixer-upper" that we could renovate should the temptation become overwhelming. Nice thing about this place - nearby creek has good water and you can shoot pheasants off a rocking chair on the porch - well we'd have to re-build a porch, but that wouldn't be too difficult. Old wood stove could be re-furbished to cook up those pheasants and keep the place warm during the minus 40 degree blizzards (from about September and ending around August)
Cheers,
Jack

Default OK- I trust your judgement-will modify post

My bias against females in DNR-what we call the Raccoon Rangers in MI- we had a female enforcement officer in our sector for 20 years- and she was a full bore feminsta and a man-hater- and as you know, there are more ways they can write you up when waterfowling, and loved to do that- One of the District Judges (a friend and fellow hunter) finally admonished her openly in Court about her amount of "Chicken &^%$" citations- she has finally retired.

Besides being a good welder, I also have skills in carpentry, basic electricals (NOT electronics) and rough plumbing- so you'd be taking in a older guy who can and will work to earn his keep- pheasants from the porch- almost sounds too easy--Thanks!!

Welding - good. The stove needs fixin'
Carpentry - good. The porch will be the best feature then.
Electrical - what's that??
Rough Plumbing - no need, already behind the house - and not too rough either - it's a fancy "two holer"



As for Raccoon Rangers or Ministers of Environment, the individual gets my admiration or disgust based on their actions not gender. Maybe we could set up a third rocker on the new porch and invite Nancy to shoot a few. If you get that stove into good shape, maybe she could cook 'em up too.

Cheers,
Jack
