While we move in the right direction Harper moves in the wrong
Read up on how the Harper government plans to 'gut the powers in federal legislation intended to protect fish habitat, making it easier for projects such as Calgary-based Enbridge Inc.’s Northern Gateway pipeline to B.C. to clear federal hurdles, according to a retired fisheries biologist who obtained the information from a government source.'

The Would be Great Outdoorsman by Tom Ham
Thanks for submitting to Fun Writings, Poetry Journal Tom Ham.
I sit and stare
As I get gray hair
At a computer screen all day….
The clock ticks by
But time does not fly
As I work begrudgingly for my pay….
The creek will wait
No, I don’t use bait
I’d be fly fishing if I had my way…
Responsibilities….I’ll not be shirkin'
For I am accustomed to workin'
Yet too much work can
Make a jerk
…of this “would be great outdoorsman.”

Adventure Quote
