Now Shirley, lets be fair. A majority of voters voted for Mulroney twice - in the 80's. I as a younger Canadian will pay the price for my parents abuse and overspending (and mistakes at the polls). Blame Mulroney for not having the guts to stand up to all the people who voted for him and make cuts to social programs. He was a wimp, a politician. However, if I recall correctly, if you even mentioned cuts in gov't programs in the 80's, there would be people hunting you down in effort to kill you. It was not an issue then! Fact is, it has taken years of education and preaching and people in this country still can't tell you what the difference between the deficit and the national debt is or the implications of interest rates, and how the world economy dictates those rates to the Bank of Canada. Until people fully realize how much we owe and the risks associated with it, paying it down will never happen. You are a very well educated person and you don't even know how much the debt really is ($584 billion to be exact.) You see my point....

Did I get your blood boiling a bit? No offence intended, just thought I would add a bit of spice to the chat. Now, weren't we discussing a ... um .... was it... ..oh... ...yes - a gold stock?

Take care

Ronald Regan

P.s. Now if we could just get PFG and MAD to accumulate dollars as fast as Canada accumulates debt we'd be rich!
