Quoting Michael Loo to Jim Weller <=-

Ted Botnton was a camp cook in and around Hudson's Hope in the
upper Peace River country of northern B.C. in the 1920s. -JW

Did Ted Boynton feed fish ducks to his camp?

Apparently he tried to!

Title: Merganser
Like liver, fish-eating duck meat is strong.

Ray shot one once accidentally as it was hanging out with a flock of
mallards and brought it home to experiment with as he too hates
waste. It was worse than turr and there was no fixing it. Not even
cooking it a third time in another change of water and making a
curry of it.

I still think that one could take otherwise unusable animal
protein and process it into what you might call land-based
surimi.

They do that already ... in wiener factories!

Title: Lithuanian Braised Wild Duck
1 Wild duck
Soak dressed goose

Lithuanians don't know the difference between ducks and geese?

There were a lot of translation errors and omissions to directions
in that collection, I caught and corrected a lot of them and trashed
a few recipes that made no sense at all but obviously I missed a
few.

... Liquor is Loki.

I had to look that up. It looked like some kind of obscure pun

I meant liquor can be Trickster.

Loki basic recipe
8 c water
4 c sugar
flavorings
750 ml grain alcohol

That's a different Loki altogether that you came across.

How much is a modest apartment downtown going for?

$1500 for a one bedroom, $1800 for a two.

So comparable to a livable city in the lower 48.

A bit more than Ottawa where one can live for $1000 or $1300.

cloves in the Quebecois fashion.

I've on occasion had pork with sweet spices, and
it's not for every day but good for a change of pace.

My theory is that sweet spices in meat dishes were popular in Europe
in the 16600s when the first Quebec settlers arrived. The custom
remained popular here long after it died in the motherland.

Interesting. I'm curious about how Atlantic Canada
was involved in the spice trade.

I imagine quite tangentially as they would have come from Europe
where they were already hideously expensive back in the day.
