Ot to Sam Unfortunately no. It seems that it's a lot cheaper for the big US Oil companies to spend their exploration dollars buying companies on the TSE than to hire a rig and drill for it. 2 of them have succumbed or are in the process of doing so within the past month. I have no insights whatsoever into the sector; and, a solid aversion to mutual funds. Congratulations on your successful diversification. My portfolio was rescued by QLT.to / QLTI this week. :-) And it certainly needed rescuing. :-( Ian.
