    Here you go America, you can have back total control over the Canadian oil patch. The money from this will no doubt go into their pockets, as always.

    No one company can own more than 20% of Petro-Can.<p> Thanks Paul Martin, who sold off 50% of Petro-can in 1995. That leaves only 1 Canadian owned Oil Company.<p> Hey! Tundraboy! How ya gettin on?!?<p> <p>---<br>"History does not repeat itself, but it does rhyme" Mark Twain <br />

    That's right, Doc......I also heard David Orchard say a while ago that Norway, which stayed out of the E.U. like Switzerland did, gets 5 TIMES (!!!) the oil royalties Canada gets--and don't forget Hugo Chavez in Venezuela, who openly challenges the U.S. to mind their own business, and leave him and Venezuela's nationalized oil-revenues alone.

    What do you mean 'you know who'? Arbusto, GW Bush's oil company? (lol) Or some other American? Does anyone else think Ralph Goodale looks like a really dorky Drew Carry?

    Hi N Say. For some reason,
    my post was cut off at the sides,
    so I compressed this reply just in
    case. :)

    I meant: .....you know Hugo Chavez,
    who openly warns the U.S. NOT
    to interfere with him, and Venezuela's
    nationalized oil revenues. Apparently the
    U.S. is threatening another coup attempt,
    and they may try to pull it off before
    the next election, as Kerry may not want to
    do the same thing. I read a few weeks ago,
    that Chavez DID condemn the U.S. administration
    in public, and warn of a 100-year war if the
    U.S. interferes. I think he was referring to
    a civil war in Venezuela, as well as a war
    directed against foreign interference, but I
    can't be sure about that.

    Actually, never mind N Say, looks like you were responding to Dave Ruston's post.

    Oopsies, although I do think some of my post wasn't visible...I'm thoroughly confused now. Whatever.

    Don't worry. It's just Bill Gates conspiring with the Ilumminati and Mossad to prevent you from viewing your own posts and causing you to be paranoid. Nothing to see here...move along, move along.<p><p>---<br>"History does not repeat itself, but it does rhyme" Mark Twain <br />

    The Liberal plan is to sell everything owned by the government. Everything, buildings, parks, ...citizens too.
