Ron, you pointed out that DNR forbids anyone from eating fish caught out of Lake Superior, but you did not say why that is. Are you saying that Lake Superior is as toxic and dying as Lake Erie once was? Because I've never heard such a report in any news. Lake Superior is such a toxic waste dump that any fish caught are poisonous? Doesn't Lake Superior border Canada? I've heard lots of anti-American stuff coming out of Canada, but not that our or any industry has killed off or made Lake Superior a toxic cesspool. I'm not criticizing you, I'm merely pointing out that I've not heard any of that. Are you sure that that's why DNR won't allow it? Or is there something else at work, perhaps NAFTA. You said that your Walleye comes from Alberta? Mmm? So does your lumber. When the DNR gets involved, I pretty much swallow anything that they say with a boulder of salt. Let's see, they introduced coyotes, wolves, and some pretty big cats into my neighborhood (re-introduced them I think they said), blocked off entire towns because roads entering and leaving those towns passed through what is now termed/deemed "wildlife" areas for endangered species of mosquitos, leaches, or whatever someone claims to have seen for the first time in anyone's lifetime. Anyway, I wasn't aware that Lake Superior is/was a toxic cesspool until now. Thanks for the tip, I should be watching the news more closely.
