Stay tuned Maurice, Ontario teachers reporting their brilliance on April 2.
Unfortunately for them, there should be gapping hole in the previous 108 billion under management .
Further adjustments, other than the last... to their long bond holdings of ""prudent"" rise of half a percent and abracadabra presto 12 billion deficit swept away by the stroke of the pen....might be required.

We will see what magic they will conjure up this time...but not to worry the taxpayers of Ontario will back their fully indexed pension to 8 percent a year with carry over of ballance to the next year.

"Baby boomers who haven't provided for themselves might find old age problematic at best."

Elmat: Work until they drop. I like to work. Thus did not lose skills. For me it is not going to be a problem.

Japan has loaned NZ $160 billion or so to enable people to revalue their houses upwards. 4 million people = $40,000 each, or $160,000 per actually productive person [old, young, unemployed, beneficiaries, housewives, government 'workers' etc don't count].

ELMAT: A lesson here. Have money sent to Brazil, the real banana republic.

That's a lot of money to repay and on which to pay interest while trying to repay it in an economy with a banana republic GDP per capita, especially when much of that GDP was derived from the boom from borrowed money.

ELMAT: The process is called fleecing
