Red Lake is a last ditch stand of drunks, swindlers deadbeats, con men and government employees. Card sharks, musicians, miners, morons and their agents, fast women, slow geologists, and confidence men selling worthless paper abound in the street. (There is only one. But there are two washrooms.) Peirogies on the menu, breakfast lunch and supper. Only real claim to fame, beside the most highgraders per acre was the largest fleet of Beech Twin float planes in existence. (The Twin Beech extended had a 2200 nautical mile range) Only more last ditch stand than Red Lake is Pickle Lake. Now, that and Chibaugamau can truly be called mining dumps. I used to tell the Boys at Dickenson, "why don't you hire some explorationists and look on strike towards the Lake?." Seemed to me they had missed that. "Oh, no! hire people? There is no money in that!" So they missed Goldcorp, which has to be the richest gold mine ever found in Ontario, even counting the Kinross in Timmins. Competence abounds. Red Lake is not a desert. It is a swamp planted with Black Spruce weeds.
