Yeah it’s really too bad. I was booked and looking forward to it again this year, but I could kind of see this coming given the uncertainty over the next several months.Quote:

Hopefully the interruption in hunt income convinces the island that continuing is desirable? Too much talk of shutting it down.
Damn. I was booked too. Seems a bit knee-jerk to me. October is a long ways off and the birds get brought over in the summer as far as I know.
Essex county is at 19 deaths.
Anyone who thinks this is going to get better soon just needs to look at the numbers.
April 9 510 dead in Canada
April 15 1010 dead in Canada
Just about doubled in 6 days. It took all of March and 9 days to get to 510, about 40 days and now we have the same number of deaths in 6 days.
If this decision was related to the need to order birds well in advance of the fall and the uncertainty regarding the hunt, I hope programs like Tiny Marsh, Conestoga, Hullett and Norfolk don’t follow suit and cancel this fall.
Very likely. The suppliers won’t want to gamble on producing a crop they can’t sell.Quote:
