Ottawa. A close membre de ma famille qui habite Montreal/Rive Sud was without power Monday through Saturday. I was untouched until Saturday then lost power for 9 hours. Funny thing, after ice storm ends, trees rebound and there was another rash of power outages. Today, Ottawa is essentially normal (!). Just have to pick up the mess and pay for it. Just east of Ottawa is the real difficult area - very rural, long single hydro strings and poles down all over the place.

Anyhow, back to Alberta. This weather was so extensive and severe that it could be part of reason trading was fairly slow late last week.

I am a small investor whose first stock was Montello 1 1/2 years ago. I've since added NCS, ACA, EVR in Alberta, DML in SVB (I was in at higher cost than you Frank, then didn't sell at right time), and 2 other juniors. I bought and sold NNC. So I'm a 100% spec junior player who is thinking about extending my line-of-credit even further to pick up a little PUG. I'm nervous as hell.
