When I was 16 my father was offered a job to manage a construction company in Hawaii, he turned it down. I told him that day "You have ruined my life! lol
Even our Canadian hunting forums SUCK!
I would also like to thank all the members here that I have PM'ed with, thank you for your warm reception
First 10 or so Canadians I ever met were epic douchebags. I was convinced that me and Canadians just weren't compatible. Actually one of the first I met was at a boyscout camporee. We ended up fist fighting in the food line. Lol. But I've come to realize that alot of you dudes are pretty cool. Like anywhere, stay out of the cities and the people generally get better and better. Don't worry, Trump has a plan to anex you guys and Baja Mexico. We'll all be one big happy f'd up family.

I predicted he would win in July 2015, people here started to hate me and said I was crazy. I ended up being a moderator on a big pro Trump chat room in the USA, and I banned hundreds of liberal demonrats, never had more fun lol
Every Canadian I've met from Alberta and New Foundland all wish they could secede from Canada and become American. I wish we could trade our Douch nozzles who want socialism for some folks from either province. What I need is a nice Alberta moose on my wall.
A bowhunter at heart but a gun guy at soul. I'll take craftsmanship, wood and blue steel over plastic and composite any day.

I wish I was too. And you are correct, they really do suck.
Youse Canuckians would prolly rule the world if you didn't have that goddam metrick sysytem.
flintlocke; Good almost afternoon to you sir, I trust your section of California is hopefully getting some moisture and you're well.
Imagine if you will for a moment the havoc which the metric system created for places like Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba where the southern farmlands are all surveyed out with miles. There are grid roads, road allowances and correction line roads all of which run in between sections of farmland which are again surveyed and laid out in miles.
Along comes Crown Prince Socks Senior - we shall debate whether or not Fidel is the real father another day perhaps - but he has this wonderful plan to get us in step with the rest of the world, being a good globalist even back then.....
Went over in my part of western Canada like a proverbial lead balloon shall we say?
Then there's those of us who were initially taught Imperial Standard but then asked to convert to metric - well except for construction which remains standard....
Framing a house was fine, no issues putting windows in, but cabinets, well then I go work in a cabinet shop.
We'd get the order from the customer in standard because it's construction, then convert it to metric because the machines were Euro built, then we'd have our installers put the metric sized boxes into standard built houses!!!
Temperature outside the house I can sorta figure out in metric, but so help me inside the house its standard Fahrenheit thanks kindly.
How many miles to the gallon does the diesel truck make? That makes sense only in Imperial gallons to me, but in a car with kilometers that doesn't help much.
In the end sir, you're probably right, we may indeed have been well on our way to world domination and then Socks Senior got us.
Of course there was hockey and beer before that, so maybe not?
Dwayne, I'm not as dumb as I sound, I was taught the metrick system by an ill tempered Queens Cowboy near Chilliwack. I don't seem to be able to get over it, he lives in my head, but it wasn't free.
Well this is a fine pickle we're in, should'a listened to Joe McCarthy and George Orwell I guess.
