Date men and women from Canada / Alberta / New Norway, 44 year old

Date people from Alberta, Canada. I live on 3 1/2 acres, about an hour away, southeast of Edmonton. My home and my vehicles are 100% bought and paid for. It's beautiful out here in the country, lots of room for pets and kids to run and play. There's allot of work out here, to keep the property looking nice, but I wouldn't have it any other way; the only thing I'm missing is a special someone to share it all with. I do all my own maintenance, gardening and construction.
I have some very attractive qualities which I think most women would appreciate; I can cook, clean, am full-time employed, want to become a daddy AND I always insist that the toilet seat and lid be left down;-)
I believe in mom, apple pie and treating a woman like a lady. I still haven't given up hope that somewhere, out there, a woman waits for me; one who is beautiful, intelligent, kind and expects nothing less than to be treated like a lady. I'm at that point in my life where I'm ready for a relationship, a woman who loves me, and children. If you have kids, babies or very young children - thats cool. I am not afraid of a ready-made family.. I like to think I'm a good cook(never had any complaints in that regard) - the kitchen is one of my favorite places to be.
I'm not interested in head-games, liars or cheaters. I'm what you might call old-school; I still believe it's my job to hold a car door open for a lady; I believe in supporting our troops overseas, regardless of politics. I'm a big fellow; 6'2" and 270 pounds; you gotta be ready for some bear-type huggnz and squeeznz).
I own my own business refilling inkjet cartridges and laser toners. I also do NH3 deliveries...all this is are keeping me pretty busy but I'm willing to make time for the right lady.
Honesty, integrity & clean-living are all big for me. She must be open to discussing a wide variety of topics, be adventurous and fun-loving. A woman who has the ability to have children and the desire to have them is also very important to me. As far as I'm concerned, the only things that really count are family, hard work, good friends and love...

Meet single man from Alberta, Canada. Been a third wheel so long I am starting to hate tricycles....
I give back to my community, industry and country by volunteering to make them better. Stacking chairs, take tickets, and fix what needs fixing. If you ask for my help, I will be there, if someone else hasn't asked first (or if I am combining).
I have a hard time sitting still doing nothing. Being active is how I survive in business, and how I enjoy leisure.
I am politically active and feel it is important fight for changes for the better as guided by one's beliefs.
Snorkeling is favorite activity, tough to do here with the ice and all. I push myself to challenge my fears and broaden my experiences. My travels have taken me to remote locations in Mexico, where I enjoy real Mexican culture and not the tourist snapshot poised around resorts.
I work with my hands, renovate, fix, plant and nurture (not "ride, rope, hammer and paint" but close).
Have been known to invoke tears of laughter, consider yourself warned.
Looking for a lady who desires the rural life(with chickens). If you don't know what that means, this might be time to move onto the guys with small lawns and a fence used to stop peeking.
Looking for someone who laughs easily and enjoys a stimulating conversation. Pushing the envelope to gain a unique experience intrigues you. Challenges drive you, debate draws you, and family grounds you. You lead with encouragement and support others in their trials. Their successes are as equally important as yours. You consider a dogs lick a kiss, and love to give a belly rub as a reward(we're still talking about the dog here).
