good friends over at the Ministry of Tourism.


In praise of Bounder In celebration of my two years as


columnist with the greatest and most comprehensive publication our region has to offer, it seems only fitting that I should celebrate somehow. The first thing I’ll do is to bring


to bag their bruin. Again this fall, certain regions of Central, Northern and Northwestern Ontario are offering additional tags on a first- come-first-serve basis, but nothing extra for this part of the province, I’m afraid – much to the chagrin of local hunters. Amid a continuous cloud of


controversy, Ontario’s fall bear season continues undaunted. Most hunters realize it is not the optimal time to pursue black bears, but alas, it is the only true conservation control we have. I must remind all bear hunting


enthusiasts to complete the mandatory questionnaire available at www.Ontario.ca/hunting. These questionnaires should be sent in no later than Dec. 15.


Visit beautiful Québec Those looking for a new and


exciting challenge this fall might consider a hunting adventure across the river. La Belle Province offers some of


the best deer, moose, bear and small game hunting anywhere in Canada. Although I do hold an Ontario hunting license now, I have never lost my interest in pursuing game on the Québec-side. The mountainous terrain provides an unparalleled challenge for any hunter, but you’ll need to have your “climbing legs” on to succeed. Chasing deer at our hunt camp is my passion, but it does require considerable endurance and stamina. (I say this with experience, following two knee surgeries.) The less adventurous road


warriors tend to hug the logging trails, but our gang is more traditional, opting for mountain peaks rather than the roads most travelled. Don’t discount Québec as a hunting destination, but be prepared to work for it. For a free Québec hunting and lodging brochure, contact my


copies of this issue of Bounder to the boys at deer camp. They always enjoy it. I might even bring a copy out on my tree-stand with me. That would be fun! I’ll roll it up and tuck it inside an old knot on the tree where my stand hangs, so it won’t get wet. Then each afternoon when I return to my favourite tree (situated alongside my favourite deer runway) I’ll have something to read in the quiet serenity of Québec’s Laurentian Mountains. Yep, sounds like a damn nice


celebration to me! Thanks to all the good folks at Bounder for two wonderful years of being part of a great team of like-minded individuals. Until next time, I wish you all the


greatest success in your hunting and fishing endeavours.
