Good afternoon, happy Labour Day long weekend. Let's start with some positive news; it rained again last night and the restrictions on entering the woods in Cape Breton have been lifted. The water temperatures are also looking better. We are looking forward to the river opening soon.

Also in the news is the recent end of the de minimis exemption. This means that small packages shipped to the United States will now be subject to more duties. Unfortunately, this means that along with many other small businesses, at this time, we will no longer be shipping to the United States. We want to apologize to our many American friends and customers. We are hoping this will be a short term move for us. We are always delighted to welcome all of our customers to the shop and look forward to seeing you all in person!

Kay and Alex
