I'm a longtime US citizen/resident.
And I just wanna say the following:
I buy maple syrup made in Canada.
And I will always do so, damn it. 😉

Canada's Sweetest Heist
From 2011-2012, Quebec was the scene of a bizarre agricultural crime. Thieves stole nearly 3,000 tonnes of maple syrup, worth $18.7 million, from a warehouse holding the province's 'strategic reserve.' This global reserve, managed by Quebec's producers to stabilize market prices, was hit by a complex theft that required a massive investigation to unravel.

The Strategic Maple Syrup Reserve
Canada maintains a Strategic Maple Syrup Reserve in Quebec, with 77,000 barrels. Created in 2000 by the Federation of Quebec Maple Syrup Producers, this stockpile regulates the syrup supply and prices. In 2012, thieves pulled off a daring heist, stealing syrup worth $18 million in what became known as the Great Canadian Maple Syrup Heist. 🍯

🚫 Oh, Canada! 🍁 #Xonaly, the 'independent' search engine that independently denies you access faster than you can say "maple syrup." 🥞 Perhaps their business strategy is to become the most exclusive 403 error page on the internet. 🙃

Does knowing about real #MapleSyrup make be an honorary #Canadian? Nothing matters any more. Eh. But glucose is glucose, despite which plant it came from, right?

Official beige #introduction post after moving over here from mastodon.social. I doubt I'll regret it, but beigers haven't let me down yet.
I'm Isaac. WI-based (SE corner of the state). Grew up on the west-central side on a dairy farm in the #driftless. Probably a smart move to get away at the time, but days doing my job now make me realize Ayrshire and Jersey cows can be considerably better coworkers and aren't smoking the AI/LLM crack pipe.
Married to my best friend now for nearly 22 years. One son who knows way more than I do.
I work in tech trying to get anyone to care about system performance and capacity. Sadistic; I know. Just throw more hardware at it!!
Aside from paying the bills, I try to be outdoors as much as I can and have a horrible habit of learning new things and having numerous hobbies. Our family enjoys travel; and most of that is by pulling small camper all over and getting out hiking or riding bikes. 31k miles pulled in the last 7 years. More to come with a new rig this year. We have a lake for a back yard, so I do spend a fair bit of time fishing and taking photos of waterfowl and other #birds and anything else I can. #photography is a long-time hobby.
As someone who grew up dirt poor and outside a lot, yes, I hunt. Have record book whitetails on the walls and food in the freezers. Yes, I own guns. Yes, we need(ed) much better regulation of them yesterday. My son is a good competitive trap shooter and I enjoy that as well. Yup, lefties own guns :)
When late winter rolls around, my posts will probably become heavily #maplesyrup focused. It's a jobby that's growing year over year and I plan to make that a piece of my retirement whenever I get there.
I live for 2 wheeled vehicles propelled by pedals. Can't afford motocross bikes or the injuries anymore, but I enjoy #MTB a ton. I am a head coach for a #NICA team (6-12 graders) covering a handful of towns. #morekidsonbikes It's a blast and probably one of the most rewarding things I've done.
If I'm not outside, I'm probably in my shop making things with wood or steel. Although poor, I grew up with a torch and welder in my hands. I also fly rockets I design and build when time permits; some high power. Faster way to burn money than LLMs.
If you're a non-fascist human; high-five. Let's have a beer sometime.

The old Maple trees are tapped, the sap is dripping into the bucket.
Once boiled down there will be pancakes with maple syrup on the table, I guess. -
It somehow seems very Canadian that the "huge Canadian grocery companies are illegally overcharging/underweighting meat again after they got caught a year ago and promised they'd solved that 'error'" scandal is getting less press than the "some maple syrup producer in Quebec got caught selling fake maple syrup containing >50% cane sugar" scandal.

Another brand hit with the fake maple syrup scandal: l’Érabeille. The cans came from the same producer, but different distributor.
The company is recalling the products from grocery stores.
