Except for all those who think it was named after the castle of the scottish clown (That is what we call it when we don't want the kids to think we are going out for "Happy Meals")

I'll still like the Beaver - and since it is *my* province and lake.....

But if we go with the moose - how about MacKenzie. Named after a Rebel, a really long river, and a Prime Minister who talked to his dog

MacK the Moose


*naw* I like the beaver,
still down in votes? ;-0

 

[DivingGal]

Gee I know there are more than a dozen of us here... but that's the count so far.

Beaver 4

Moose 8

Beaver
Something about that and diving just seem to go together
Call him Muffy

 

[DivingGal]

I don't want to drag the count out, so last call - I'll close the voting with same deadline as the taxes. Midnight on the 30th.

Count:

Moose 11 Beaver 5

Sung to Mack the Knife...

Oh the Moose babe,
Has such Antlers...
And they like to,
SCUBA at night!

And the way they swim
in the water!
Oh MacK the Moose is,
such a sight!

On Lake Ontario now,
On a diving, diving boat
Oh, Mack he does,
He does a Giant stride!

Oh he's gonna dive
on a wreck, don't cha know!
ANd that's why he went,
Over the side!

Look out Diving Gal,
Loook ouuuut Ontario Diver,
Butch 103, Diverdude and that Rooster too!
Oh the diving's great, but it's too cold dear,
Oh you better wear that ol' dry suit.

I see by your mascot poll in the other thread that
Muffy the beaver diver is in the lead.
Sorry DivingGal I just can't help myself
:tease:

 

[DivingGal]

Yeah but that poll (the automatic one) has non-Ontarians voting in it.... hence this "write in poll"

 

[o2diver]

It has got to be the beaver. Who else stays down longer and comes up wetter? Not the moose..

 

[3bucketts]

It's got to be the beaver. Canada is the home of the beaver. Besides all the gear would look great on a beaver , a moose would just be an entanglment hazard

Final count:

Moose 12 Beaver 5

These were from votes from folks who either PM'd or e-mailed me their vote from Ontario.

If I also counted in votes from foreigners who sent me their votes (and not "hidden" in the electronic poll) ....

Moose 21 Beaver 12


so either way, please welcome the MOOSE as our mascot.

Next step... our mascot, along with ideas submited by various Ontarians for background, content, name are heading off to a graphic artist for their magical talent

Stay tuned,
