Hmmm ... I remember reading an article somewhere about how the fish stocks in Lake Huron had prospered since they open the reactor & storage facility out past Guelph ... lovely big fish ... you just leave them on the table and they slowly cook themselves

Thats cos it was frigging freezing last year, we never had a summer to speak off. I swim in it (not in Toronto mind) whenever I can, but it was just too cold all last year. Usually late July and August its quite nice.
