"Ontario Premier Doug Ford, on Monday in comments to reporters: 'You know something, to the president I'll make him a counteroffer. How about if we buy Alaska and throw in Minnesota and Minneapolis at the same time? [Trump] may be joking, but under my watch, that will never ever happen.'" read.hostux.net/view/185

The Michigan Department of Natural Resources invites the public to meet in person Tuesday, Jan. 21, 6 to 8 p.m. CST (7 to 9 p.m. EST) to discuss walleye regulation changes for Lake Gogebic. The public meeting will be held at the Marenisco Village Township Hall, 314 Hall St. in Merriweather.

Lake Gogebic, the largest inland lake in the Upper Peninsula, currently falls under the existing statewide regulation for walleye: There is a 15-inch minimum size requirement and a daily possession limit of five fish.

The regulation change to be considered for public input adds a protected slot limit. This means that anglers would not be able to possess any walleye measuring between 18 inches and 23 inches in the daily possession limit of five fish and could possess only one walleye 23 inches or greater.

Lake Gogebic walleye caught during the 2017 population estimate survey.
The Management Plan for Walleye in Michigan’s Inland Waters was published in 2021 and provides a framework to guide walleye management efforts. Using guidance from the management plan, the primary goals of this regulation proposal are to increase spawning stock and promote long-term resiliency of the species in more variable environmental conditions. Regulation changes such as this one must be approved by the Michigan Natural Resources Commission, after soliciting public feedback. The proposal also will be shared at the spring Conversations and Coffee meetings and through citizens advisory groups. Dates and times for the Conversations and Coffee meetings will be announced in an upcoming news release

Anyone unable to attend the Jan. 21 in-person meeting is invited share their comments regarding this regulation proposal by completing this form: forms.office.com/g/VrCXxJMD11. Comments shared in person and digitally will be considered.

The Department of Natural Resources is committed to providing Michigan residents the opportunity to share input and ideas on policy decisions, programs and other aspects of natural resource management.

The hope is that when these prisoners move back into communities, they will be able to spread the game by working in coaching or training roles. "Cricket is a new sport. They won't have competition because no one else teaches cricket. So they could do that in their region. That's the idea."

They are probably right,

“Wayne Disposal is a Subtitle C landfill that is highly engineered with multiple safety measures in place and frequent inspections...It’s probably vast overkill, but that’s okay

of course what Miller misses is that all of this government oversight really messes with the actual price of water. I for one suspect water is far greater value than the capitalists claim candgnews.com/news/miller-advo…

Republicans and Democrats qualify for the ballot automatically. The West campaign did the hard work by collecting over 25,000 signatures of Michigan voters attesting they think their neighbors should have a right to vote for him, but the SOS denies that because an official in Colorado didn't dot her i's correctly. freep.com/story/news/politics/…
