A little context
As a public service — since no one seems to have done this yet — the Labrador cartography division presents the following map showing the Joir River (highlighted in bright green), a tributary of the Mecatina, relative to the surrounding hydrography, road networks, and the closest Innu communities in Labrador and the North Shore.

Translation of the above comment:
ReplyDeleteWhatever Williams has done in the past, is doing in the present, or will do in the future is completely and utterly perfect and right and bold and brilliant [the comment breaks off here...]
WJM: Is there any truth to the rumour that these hunters passed through a much larger herd to access the Joir River herd?
ReplyDeleteThe largest herds are measured quarterly by CRA.
ReplyDeleteTrying to be funny, Mark?
ReplyDeleteWinston: sorry, deleted that Chinese spam.
ReplyDeleteSteve: Mark tried and succeeded.
Steve again: No. The Minister of Caribou is poorly informed.
WJM,
ReplyDeleteSpam? What spam? It thought for sure it was Gomphus clavatus Wisemanius.
Winston
Nope.
ReplyDeleteI thought for a couple days you could be civilized. I was wrong. A leopard can't change its spots. Neither can a braying jackass.
Bye, Steve.
Steve:
ReplyDeleteHave a real name yet?
No?
OK then.
Bye, Steve.
STILL WAITING OH GREAT ONE, YOUR HOLINESS, YOUR EMINENCE.
