And that's the greatest point ever! ScottS always asks how the hell anyone can live somewhere that gets that cold but you just get really, really good at staying warm.

Of all the things I miss from Canada, fire is one of the biggest. From the flicker of the wood stove in the living room, the firepit in the back yard or the Bonfire circled by friends, most of my fondest memories are in some way, linked to fire. I even miss the endless exercise of gathering firewood, cutting, chopping splitting and stacking several cord each season.

I was born and raised in Williams Lake BC. Moved to High Level Alberta when I was 29 and then the US at 35.

I still have family in Sooke, Duncan, Kamloops, Vancouver, Vanderhoof, Edmonton and even Yellowknife.

=O You lived in prime Bigfoot country! lol...I have never been to the west coast but always wanted to. I have really always wanted to see the Redwood forests of B.C. So what brought you to live in the good 'ol U.S. of A? Tell me it was the jet skiing lol. I am right back to where I started. Originally from Kingston Ontario, moved around the country side but not really ever more than an hour away from it. Then came back after a long time. My longest travel was to Thunder Bay.

I used to work for Grant Forest Products, (Ontario based company) and they transfered me down to help run two massive OSB mills they built in South Carolina. They had shut down their OSB mill in High Level and so I was working in the oil fields temporarily when I got the call and accepted the position without even hesitating. I was so ready to move, it really didn't matter where it was. Jetskiing year round has simply been icing on the cake.

I originally moved down on an L1B Visa but soon met my wife, got married and now have dual citizenship.

You just can't make this chit up...

GRANDE PRAIRIE, Alberta – In a bizarre case seeming to hail from the Hollywood Hills, a lost time incident reported from an industrial shop in northern Alberta has gained fame in all of the worst ways.

37 year-old Richard Stuckie, a resident of Fairview and employee of CanPack Completions, pulled a stunt last seen on the movie American Pie, but with vastly different consequences.

Richard was apparently working in the shop, checking over some completions system for the following day’s workovers and decided he would try to fornicate with a packer assembly on the test bench. The inflatable packer apparently went into a system failure and would not deflate, trapping Richard’s “man-pendage” inside and refusing to let go.

Ha, well he is from Fairview so behavior like that wouldn't be so unbelievable, lol.

I see now it's a satirical newspaper. :(

The first thing that looked out of place to me was the photo of the RCMP officer. His head made made me think of those stupid super imposed bodybuilder ads on facebook, such massive arms and chest with a walnut sized head lol! "want the secret to get monster results like these guys?"...already have it dude, vitamins C, G, and I. Guaranteed to work on everyone.
