-- MACTIER, Ont. -- Rough waters have forced police to temporarily suspend the search for three swimmers who went missing Sunday in a remote area of the Muskoka region in central Ontario.Rumour has it, the McGuinty government is hard at work on legislation that will ban recreational swimming.
It's the second incident in the area this long-weekend.
On Friday 46-year-old John-Paul Farrell of Stouffville died after hitting a wave and going overboard while boating in Loon Lake near Gravenhurst.

One man is dead and another is clinging to life after being pulled from Bala Falls west of Bracebridge, Ont., police say.**********

“This pandemic is a dud,” says Dr. Richard Schabas, the former chief medical officer of health for Ontario.*
"If you've really got to worry about catching something, worry about the germs you catch in the hospital. They are far more deadly."
"Superbugs and similar infections contracted in the hospital kill about 8,000 Canadians a year, far more than all our recent so-called pandemics put together."
