Hey Herschel.

Probably the most famous musician from Saskatchewan is Joni Mitchell.

You may have heard of her.

One last comment on this. I have pull started my 50hp Mercury. Now "officially" a senior, I would rather not relive that experience. My booster pack is a Stanley that I bought on sale for about $100 4-5 years ago. I have used it to jump start 3 different vehicles and the boat once. Most re...

If a dead battery is your concern, just carry a booster pack with you ( the type people use to jump start their vehicles).

Hi Wayne.

I found it at Canadian Tire.
