One of my favourite writers. And a wonderful curmudgeon. At one point
he was banned from the US for his writing. Also because the USAF
considered him a threat - he stated that if any US Air Force plane
flew over his land he'd shot it with his shotgun. They actually tried
to have the Canadian government charge him. When the RCMP went to his
house to interview him about it, they stayed for about 3 hours talking
and drinking tea with him. He was never arrested over it but did he
make the US and the USAF look bad.
