    Our flag leaf is a stylized maple leaf. Maple leaves were used as symbols of Canada going back to 1867 of Confederation. The maple leaf has been our coin since 1876 to 1901 and on the penny since 1901. Canada doesn't use pennies any more.

    My family & wood hauler needs a torque converter. 2010 Subaru Outback - didn't even get 150k out of it. Subaru is doing nothing to help me on the repair, even though it was a service bulletin that expired only 3 months ago. Not pleased with them.

    So after a meeting in a few, I am going to check out some rides and see what happens. Eyeing something smaller and a bit better on fuel and we will add a tow hitch to my wife's van to convert it to the wood hauler.

    I understand that the politicians plan to replace the maple leaf with a new symbol in about 11 1/2 hrs................................ :headbang: :vulture:

    I love felling trees!

    Been thinning the woods specifically trying to improve the maple crowns for more growth and sap production....cut about a dozen 100 foot poplars-cottonwood. Quite the crash!

    Yeah, I'm going to send the first batch, made with Ex-Lax, to the Idiots on Parliament Hill who hatched this "scheme". Most Canadians with a lick of common sense see this as nothing but another hair-brained PITA tax grab.
