Buy the whole company as a CDN subsidiary and hire Asians to run it. You can get it arranged so that taxation paid only once, as there are taxation agreements between the countries. I am not sure it is cheaper to operate in Canada, energy wise or labour wise. I am not sure what you pay miners in the states, but in Canada, you have to sell your mansion and hire out your offspring as slaves to get a long hole driller to show up drunk. 6 months training and they make 50 dollars an hour and lots of mistakes. If I told miners I would pay them 25 dollars an hour they would laugh at me. If told them I was not going to pay a bonus they would throw sharp rocks at me. In 1980 we used to pay gold miners 12 dollars an hour and they made about 13 dollars bonus per hour. In 1977 as a miner I made about 8.95 an hour and perhaps 23 dollars bonus per day. Almost a 100 dollars per day. I know some engineers who want $20,000 a month. Most geologists ask for 400 dollars a day. I don't think we need to pay that, but it will be expensive to get technical help. They just don't exist anymore. Maybe TD Greenline has CDN stocks in US accounts. But the accounts are in CDN dollars aren't they? EC:<-}

One can buy Canadian big cap companies which we know will have long term lasting strength like utilities, oil sands, natural gas, etc. I tell my Americna friends with large American stock portfolios to hedge their portfolios's by putting 5% into large cap gold companies and after that split some money between the above Canadian companies, or just put it in a Canadain bank, or Canadain real estate. Canada will do real fine with all of its natural resources and sophisticated culture and small national debt. You are running surpluses aren't you?

"BUT holding C$ in a Canadian account requires reporting a foreign account on US tax form if over $10k," In a financial collapse who cares about these stupid rules? Americans.......RUN and get your money out as fast as you can and stop worrying about breaking stupid tax laws made by crooked politicians who don't obey the law themselves. Be like them, don't be fools any longer. escapeartist.com offshore-bank-accounts-private-business-online-offshore-banking.offshore-companies.co.uk offshore-bank-accounts-private-business-online-offshore-banking.offshore-companies.co.uk
