Dave CampbellHOST
This is going to affect sports viewing, though, because now Ontario still does it.
Dave CampbellHOST
They do it in the Maritimes.
Dave CampbellHOST
But for the Eastern time zone, they're going to be one hour ahead.
Dave CampbellHOST
They're only, which is bonkers crazy in my opinion, but whatever.
Rick BownessGUEST
He helps the players and he's always got a great positive attitude every day.
Rick BownessGUEST
He's a Maritimer.
Rick BownessGUEST
Now let's remember that.
Rick BownessGUEST
He's a Maritimer.
Rick BownessGUEST
We give him a lot of love.
John ShannonHOST
He's more than a Maritimer.
John ShannonHOST
He's a Cape Bretoner if he's Port Oxford.
John ShannonHOST
Come on now.
Thomas GlazierVOICE_ACTOR
You're listening to Backyard History, the hidden stories that happened in your own backyard.
Thomas GlazierVOICE_ACTOR
The podcast version of the weekly history column running in newspapers across the Maritimes with your host and author, Andrew McLean.
Thomas GlazierVOICE_ACTOR
The year that war broke out between North and South, I was sent to Paddy Hollow Camp.
Thomas GlazierVOICE_ACTOR
The camp had a very bad name as there had been a horrible murder committed there a few years before, and reports said ghosts were seen there often,
Andrew McLeanHOST
He considered The Cook a rare culinary talent.
Andrew McLeanHOST
This would definitely be quite the contrast to Paddy McGarrigle, who was famously the worst cook ever in New Brunswick, a man who could leave the finest steak tasting like boot leather.
Andrew McLeanHOST
Thomas and Patty McGarrigle's story was in the book Backyard History, Wartime Stories from the Maritimes.
Andrew McLeanHOST
This time, Thomas is 38 years old, and he is more humble.
Drew BarnesGUEST
You also touched on another important issue here.
Drew BarnesGUEST
Time and time again, we see Conservative members of Parliament allow their vote to be whipped, whipped for what's good for the 905 in Toronto, whipped for what's good for Quebec, or whipped for what's good for the Maritimes.
Drew BarnesGUEST
Totally forgetting the 5 million Albertans that sent them there.
Drew BarnesGUEST
So, you know what, I like to say we're going to put an Alberta accent on the message in Ottawa.
17 MINS LATER
Drew BarnesGUEST
Our constitution is so broken.
Drew BarnesGUEST
It was designed for long before Alberta had 5 million people and was the economic engine of Canada.
Drew BarnesGUEST
And one of the big unfairnesses is Ontario gets three Supreme Court justices, Quebec gets three, BC and the Maritimes each get one.
Drew BarnesGUEST
It leaves us, Manitoba and Saskatchewan, to rotate that third one.
Dave ButlerGUEST
Holy smokes, lenders losing money.
Dave ButlerGUEST
And then out in the Maritimes, they're like,
Nick KaradzaHOST
Oh,
Dave ButlerGUEST
you know, like there's nothing going on.
Owen CookHOST
He went and got a small RV, he made some ebook that he makes like $1,200 a month on, and he just drove around the country, and him and his buddy will go in speedos for their self entertainment, just in a speedo, on an electric scooter, similar to Casey Neistat, have you seen that? And they go around in speedos, city to city, living on 1,200 bucks a month, They eat super duper clean, they eat organic food and drive around on Speedos while living in an RV in a different city all the time.
Owen CookHOST
He even went and bought a private island in the Maritimes of Canada because it was dirt cheap and he goes camping on his private island, okay? His name is my friend Tynan, tynan.com if you wanna see this.
Owen CookHOST
T-Y-N-A-N.com, I believe.
Owen CookHOST
That is a way, if you're not gonna do the modern life thing at a high level, you're honestly just better off to go do something like that.
Bryan WeissGUEST
But yeah, after Destiny, I just started shooting for different people and it grew and it turned into this year.
Bryan WeissGUEST
I think the big turning point for me was when Justin, New Hook, wanted me to come out to the Maritimes.
Bryan WeissGUEST
That was...
Bryan WeissGUEST
Probably the second most important week of my life next to my, my honeymoon.
Bryan WeissGUEST
That was a really big week for me.
Bryan WeissGUEST
That was the week my father passed away.
Bryan WeissGUEST
That was, you know, driving out to the Maritimes on my own, never done a trip like that before and shooting two events out there and the whirlwind that that entails and then driving home.
Bryan WeissGUEST
And then my father passing away on the drive home while I was in Peggy's Cove.
Adam JacobsGUEST
Alberta and BC and the trade with Asia and outside the US, that tends to be focused there.
Adam JacobsGUEST
We do see the Maritimes is another thing that's come up in terms of the defense industry is already there.
Adam JacobsGUEST
And the federal government has made crystal clear, look, we've been a little behind on the defense, on the NATO obligations.
Adam JacobsGUEST
We're going to double down on this.
Adam JacobsGUEST
So the infrastructure is, I mean, how many of these have we heard, right? Kevin O'Leary is going to have a giant data center in Alberta and it's monstrous dollars.
Adam JacobsGUEST
I haven't heard much about that lately, but there's a lot of these announcements and they're all over there.
Adam JacobsGUEST
Now they're in, now they're in the Maritimes.
Adam JacobsGUEST
Now you have,
Walt GoletGUEST
So if the food moves, then they're going to move.
Walt GoletGUEST
So if there is some sort of a thermal shift, it is getting progressively warmer, and that bait moves wherever it moves, moves to the Canadian Maritimes or something, then in theory, those fish would follow.
Kate DickersonHOST
I have a million other questions for you, but I'm going to limit it to two.
Kate DickersonHOST
The first one is, in all the work that you've done, is there something that you have found so surprising that you just didn't see it coming?
Walt GoletGUEST
And so some of these are fairly large bluefin.
Walt GoletGUEST
So they're all sexually mature.
Walt GoletGUEST
And we find that, you know, they leave the Canadian Maritimes or they leave the Gulf of Maine and they go very far.
Walt GoletGUEST
Some of them just go down into the Slope C and they come right back again, whereas others go all the way to the Med and come back.
Sean GalbraithHOST
Exactly, yeah.
Sean GalbraithHOST
I assume you have now heard that Canadian Nationals is going to be out in the Maritimes again in Dieppe and Moncton next year.
Sean GalbraithHOST
in middle of September.
Sean GalbraithHOST
I don't know.
Ella HansenGUEST
Thank you so much.
Ella HansenGUEST
It's all good, you know, big money there.
Sean GalbraithHOST
I got a little sidetracked with all this amazing Maritimes talk.
Sean GalbraithHOST
But when we have first time guests on the pod, we'd like to go back, of course, to the beginning of your disc golf journey.
