Major hijack here. Seems to me that some of our more seasoned folks are sensing a change. One that they don't like. I'm tempted to draw upon the time
honored and shop-worn idea of the more conservative among us that an open and free democracy should be able to chart its own course. I guess what the
geezers get all exorcised about is that we don't trust the youth. Maybe for good reason, in that the youth have been carefully molded by the
capitalist behemoth to do what is best for the capitalist behemoth. Help!!!!!!!

They've been temporarily shut down. All of the talent came up with a pale blue coloring to their skin. They think they know why.

Did Canada feel the "Great Recession"? And what is happening to help it recover?

Most commodities are priced in (falling) dollars. Canada is a commodity exporter so the increase in commodity prices is good for their economy, among
other things.

It worked here
In the 80s derugulation of the financial institutions (banks) was proposed
The US did...we didn't
As a result allour Banks and mortgage companies need a minimum 150% cash back-up for every transaction...most run around 230%
Varifiable on morningstar.ca our watchdog
So we don't have THAT big hole to climb
out of

It's not regulation, it's policing. Wouldn't be needed if thieves didn't abound.
You have nothing to fear but greed itself, or something like that.
