bluster :roll:

25% cut of what the hell is left? canadian cod stocks haven't recovered since their collapse over 10 years ago. all the polished plans they trumpet you'd think they thought no one else can read.

"commission calls for cuts to the shite spurted about how it certainly doesn't feck over anything or anyone it can flog for cash." but unfortunately there's no chance of that...

:wink:
