Ahhhhh to feel the breeze

ORILLIA, Ont. - The law has tried to stop an Ontario man from walking outside naked - but failed.

"It's like total freedom. You can just feel the breeze, the sun, unless you try it you have no idea what it feels like," says the 60-year-old naturalist who frequents a recreational trail on the shores of Lake Simcoe, north of Toronto.

"Other naturists are still fearful of being in the general public on out-of-the-way trails because of the fact they think they're going to get convicted."

On Monday, the man, who requested anonymity, went to trial for a charged of an indecent act.

Two off-duty police officers witnessed him walking naked in September 2009. The charge was dismissed because the man was not doing anything harmful - such as public masturbation, luring or flashing.

"It is a landmark case in the sense that the law has been applied to nudists and naturists. Now there is a clear pronouncement that a naturist is not engaging in an indecent act."

But Charlene Ewanchuk, who's home backs onto the Uhthoff Trail in Severn Township, disagrees with the decision.

She told QMI Agency she has called police on the "naked man" several times.

"I find it offensive. If I catch him going by my house I'll call the cops.

"If it's so acceptable why isn't he doing it in downtown Orillia?"

Ewanchuk said she has encountered the man while walking on the trail with her children, aged 10 and 14.

"Turn your head the opposite way and just go by," Ewanchuk said she told her children. "Don't look, don't talk to him, just go by."

    • Some people will shift the goal posts but he does still have to consistently help the team win, eventually. Not only help but be the reason. That's what franchise QB's do.
    • One of the Carolina Panthers' newest defenders thinks their pass rush can go from worst to first. ESPN's David Newton recently chatted with outside linebacker Pat Jones II, who signed with the Panthers as a free agent earlier this offseason. Jones comes over from an awfully impressive Minnesota Vikings defense—one that ranked first in takeaways (33), fourth in sacks (49) and second in QB pressure rate (44.4 percent) this past season. And despite a historically-bad campaign by Carolina's defense in 2024, the 26-year-old seems to believe his new unit can be similar—or even better—than his last. "I definitely think we could do something similar, if not better," Jones said, via Newton. "I've seen it before, so I know what it looks like. I look around the building and see we have exactly what it takes to do that." https://pantherswire.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/panthers/2025/05/24/panthers-pat-jones-vikings-espn/83840667007/?taid=683219b347846900018fa10a&utm_campaign=trueanthem&utm_medium=trueanthem&utm_source=twitter     It's the offseason.  Let hope spring eternal. (actually, I think we are much closer than this board thinks)  
    • 5 total TDs against the Falcons was pretty good efficiency and he showed that ability to go off scripts and get 2 of those TDs rushing.  How many times did he deliver big time throws against pressure.  I agree we need to see this offense operate at high efficiency which starts with Bryce. When he does I hope the goals posts won’t shift to some other stat like QB sneaks lol
