Women Bear-Hunters of QuebecBlack Bear, Hunting, QuebecOn today’s BBC radio’s Women’s Hour, in an 11:09 episode, correspondent Anna Kostalas encounters 9 female hunters taking the Quebec Hunting and Fishing Federation training course for hunting black bear. The background commentary by Georges Dupras of the Animal Alliance of Canada is notable for its errors, intolerance, and authoritarianism. Dupras grudgingly concedes that hunting for material economic motives, for subsistence, is acceptable (big of him to give native hunters and back country survivalists his permission), but opposes passionately hunting for spiritual sustenance and aesthetic experience, hunting for sport. To a self-appointed “expert” like Dupras, sport hunting is simply taking pleasure in killing. The 9 Québécoises ignore the prig Dupras, and enjoy and defend hunting.

Ãu2021a commence à faire là – That’s Enough Already! – Follow upCanada, Immigration, Islam, Music, Political Correctness, Quebec, Satire, VideosIn an earlier posting, we noted that a Montreal policeman had gotten into big trouble for writing a humorous song urging Third World immigrants to make some effort to assimilate or go home. At that time we were only able to find a video of the song. We could not find the text anywhere on the Net, and our own modest abilities were insufficient to enable us to produce an accurate transcription. One of our readers was kind enough to send us a link to a site which did publish the text.
