Born on a mixed subsistence farm in rural Lunenburg County, Nova Scotia, Canada. Moved to Ontario in 1967 to attend University at what was then Waterloo Lutheran University and moved to Oakville, Ontario in 1971. Without intending to live up to the name became a letter carrier the following January and have worked for Canada Post ever since. I retired in August of 2008.

The Factory Farm


I’m just getting around to reading Canadian Geographic from May/June 2004 so I’m just a bit behind the times. Page 34 of that issue has a promo for a website called the Meatrix. It’s definitely a rip-off of the Matrix Trilogy right down to our guide Moopheus who takes us on a tour of factory farms and explains why they threaten the environment, the animals housed there and our health. The site also has links to advocacy resources but the two movies hosted there are fun to watch whether or not you wish to get further involved. See it here:
