"Elementary Dear Watson!"

A Message To Fellow Blogger Derryl Sanderson:

"I would recommend that you contact the MMF Local for your area/community and pose the question to the Chair and/or Co-Chair representing your Local. The Local Chair in your area/community can approach the MMF Region that represents the Local and inquire on your behalf."

Executive Director
Manitoba Metis Federation

So do exactly that carefully documenting every step along the way and posting it on your blog. Be sure to send copies to the MMF's federal/provincial funders. Let's see if the system works. Elementary Dear Derryl!

Sincerely,
Clare L. Pieuk

Notes to a couple anonymous readers!

Tansi/Good Day Folks:

Why bother? Everyone is aware the individual responsible is tight with David Chartrand. That should speak volumes and tell you everything you need to know - JERK!

And sorry you didn't appreciate the attempt at levity. Our suggestion:

(1) Take a deep breath
(2) Put your feet up and relax
(3) Have a joint and a few brewskis on us
(4) Chill out

Sincerely,

Hey CondomMan.com!

Rubbing it in

And from the Too Little Too Late File:

A California condom company announced yesterday that their superhero mascot, CondomMan.com, is delivering 2,000 prophylactics to the Super Bowl champion daddy-to-be.

“While Tom Brady has proven himself to be a hero on the football field, something told me that he needs the help of a superhero off the field right now.” said Kevin Mirarchi, owner of CondomMan.com.

“We have sent him a large quantity of condoms, along with instructions on how to use them properly. Hopefully, this will prevent him from having any more surprises in the near future.”

The online prophylactic dealer sells four million condoms a year - apparently just not to Brady . . . .

Hi Clare,

You got that right about the best weed. But from what I hear about my poor former Manitoba Metis brothers and sisters, sounds like they sure could use some of this good product they grow out here for what they have to put up with over there.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear Anonymous:

GOD! You have no idea just how bad it really is over here. The MMF has your Metis brothers and sisters completely surrounded and under siege - believe it or not they've had to resort to circling their Red River ox carts and are, in effect, being held as de facto hostages. Could you please arrange to have a couple tons of your best weed immediately if not sooner airlifted to help dull their pain? Hurry they're getting desperate!

Sincerely,
Clare L. Pieuk

Hi Clare,

As you know I Rene live on the lower mainland of British Columbia and there are a lot more than two bridges.

Hi Rene,

The article was sent to us anonymously by someone who probably doesn't live in B.C. By the way, how many bridges are there? Is it true what the rest of us hear - your province grows the best weed?

Smoke dynamite.....it'll really blow your mind!

Your morning smile!

A city cop was on his horse waiting to cross the street when a little girl on her new shiny bike stopped beside him.

"Nice bike,"the cop said "did Santa bring it to you?"

"Yep," the little girl said, "he sure did!"

The cop looked the bike over and handed the girl a $5 ticket for a safety violation. The cop said, "Next year tell Santa to put a reflector light on the back of it."

The young girl looked up at the cop and said, "Nice horse you got there sir, did Santa bring it to you?"

"Yes, he sure did," chuckled the cop.

The little girl looked up at the cop and said, "Next year tell Santa the dick goes underneath the horse, not on top."

It's all about where you do it!

Neechi Foods joins grocery wars!

Anonymous has left a new comment on your post, "The Safeway-Sobey wars heat up on CyberSmokeBlog!"

Yeah I wish I could shop at Safeway or Sobey's but when I walk out my door all I see is Neechi Foods and the Indian & Metis Friendship Center so that's where I shop plus the odd time Giant Tiger or the Dollar Store. I wish I could shop at your luxury places. Oh well you know everything eh?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear Anonymous:

Thank you for writing. Like you the previous reader probably doesn't know everything either eh? But at least you've discovered one of Winnipeg's best kept little secrets - Neechi Foods a really neat store! It's not what you've got rather how you choose to manage and enjoy it.

The Safeway-Sobey wars heat up on CyberSmokeBlog!

Anonymous has left a new comment on your post, "They're so, so sorry Will or are they?"

Hi Clare,

In my opinion the white people got nothing to worry about because most Metis and Aboriginal of today's generation are too lazy to hunt and even going to Safeway is a chore for them.

Un Vyeu Mechif Fiere
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear Vyeu Mechif Fiere:

Are you sure you want to make such a sweeping generalization? A lot of Aboriginal and Metis Folks who shop at Sobey's aren't going to be very happy with you!

Sincerely,
Clare L. Pieuk

They're so, so sorry Will or are they?

Anonymous has left a new comment on your post, "Will shops at Safeway everybody!"

So where do you shop Sobey's? Of course Will may shop at Safeway and/or Sobey's - we need necessities don't we? But like the Metis person he is and grew up as Will also hunts to feed his family - why? Because that is what he was raised on and likes to eat. Jealousy is such a wasted emotion and its only when you get off this money trip about Will you'll see a different side of the person he really is. Who cares how much money an individual has - it's a fact Will Goodon is a Metis and is entitled like others to hunt! Get over it - you will feel much better.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear Second Anonymous:

On behalf of the first Anonymous, who raised this issue in the first place, thank you for writing. No doubt they got over it and are feeling much, much better or are they?

Sincerely,
Clare L. Pieuk

Will shops at Safeway everybody!

Anonymous has left a new comment on your post "Huh?"

Mmmhhh why would Will Gooden choose to hunt when he makes over a hundred grand per year. Maybe because he's David's friend and they want to set a legal precedent together. Who cares there are real hunters just trying to make a living on anything caught? If I made $100,000 annually I would be shopping at Safeway too. Can you see David Chartrand helping all the other harvesters who have been charged?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear Anonymous:

Short answer - maybe Will is obsessed with using his Club and Air Miles Card. More detailed reply to follow .....

Later. Sorry but we chose not post the second part of your e-mail. While you allege certain individuals have contravened Manitoba's Wildlife and Endangered Species Acts (set out the province's hunting rules and regulations), identifying them by their initials, as you did, makes it apparent about whom you're talking.

A better approach? Visit Conservation Manitoba's website (www.gov.mb.ca/conservation/parks). There you will find a Government Inquiry e-mail address (mgi@gov.mb.ca). Why not send, anonymously or otherwise, the information you possess requesting the incident(s) be investigated?

Sincerely,
Clare L. Pieuk

Huh?

Anonymous has left a new comment on your post, "They'll have to pry that duck from my frozen, dead hands! ..... Will Goodon

I sure would like to see that law David refers to about when and what a Metis can hunt. I would like even more to see the records of what has been harvested by the Metis or even one Metis. If my Dad or any of my relations who still hunt for a living heard or read those comments they would laugh him right out of Canada. Does he think everyone is stupid? Surely he must be joking.

Just An Elder
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear Elder:

Thank you for writing. Completely agree! Plus what about all those Manitoba Metis hunters who are not MMF members? Federation leadership can't even maintain an accurate voters list. Upon reading David Chartrand's comments we too said to ourselves, "Huh?"
