We had a wonderful hot summer this year of 2012. Actually summertime started so early this year and if the weather is getting upsetting why blame the forecaster? This is just the same as last year as if you don't know Canada's climate. Thank God we have four seasons to choose from unlike other countries who are to deal with only two seasons: dry and wet.
Farmers knew what to do with their crops. They knew what crop rotation is and most of all farmers knew how to provide shelter for their crops through "green house or hot house" or covered shelter shape of a lobster trap. That's to avail of an all year- round vegetation. That's the answer to whatever harsh season they complain about. Although the problem is this huge shelter is "costly." The only possible way to store your harvested crops are thr. canning, fermentation, drying and smoking (fish) (consider your fish as a "crop") and keeping them in freezer and other well ventilated storage for future use.
There are so many farmers here in Canada than any other countries in the world know why? Canada has the second biggest land surface in the world that is arable and rich in minerals favorable for farming. That's why Canada values the agricultural and other natural resources within this land. It is also the largest country with rich heritage and cultural endownment. It is because of this that other countries would like to benefit from it. Let say Canada is the new Egypt under King David and under King Joseph. What's in the King's dream that Joseph was able to decipher? Well is it the same code at this time and age?
Anyway, what's in the news at present time? 7.7 mag. earthquake rocks Haida Gwai area and off the coast of BC. Tsunami warning is raised from Alaska to Victoria, BC. that's according to the news on tv. Even the tsunami warning was heard in Hawaii. No television show has provided "scenes" of the earthquake's damages. I think the buildings are strong enough and because there's really no skyscraper in this area where the magnitude is. Provide steel in all buildings and if there are steel and sturdy materials with all the buildings no amount of earthquake will shake these structures.
Anyway...
I was shaken but not stirred of an old friend who had a complete make-over: breast augmentation, dental surgery, and nose lift and that brought a quake whether that person is still the same person after all the "surgeries." Shocking!
