Comment by Marc on March 19, 2009 at 10:20am - Mr. Martin, you have many great points. Although, as we stand today the Bank of Canada Act, has not followed through on it's mandate "regulate and protect the national currency". That indeed was a bandage. If you look back at graphs of Canada's National Deficit, from 1940 to 1960 the Canadian Government went from millions of dollars in the hole, to BILLIONS OF DOLLARS IN THE HOLE. You would think our country that built it's own railway, had domestic product exports, and one of the highest GDP, didn't really need a foreign influence.

We should be more like what the USA are heading for, we need to start buying and making in Canada or maybe we should look at removing the borders and joining the US and Canada as one nation. Our government should not be funding any company in Canada that shops outside of our border and higher taxes should be put in place to stop all cross border shopping and manufacturing. Be proud of our country, buy MADE IN CANADA.
Thank you for this space on your blog.
