RE:Canadian retail investors are the worst on the planet.Junit: "Canadian retail investors are the worst on the planet". With all due respect, I don't know if you're an American (but you sure sound like one), but I'm sure the American retail investor is no different from the Canadian retail investor. However, an American gambler is quite different from a Canadian gambler. A Canadian gambler lets the American gamblers off the hook, when times are tough for the Americans!! Just consider the oil industry (supplies going to the US from Canada) as one example, after all these years!! Not even a thank you!! That said, it's difficult to compete with a corrupt US FED, and their corrupt US BIG BANKing agents, let alone an indifferent US government that ignores Canada!!. Who's investing anymore in companies?? We're all gamblers now, and because of the US, we're now going from company to company, on the stock market, to find a few dollars to make!! Pinetree (if they were the sellers) were trying to invest in a company, but unfortunately, because of the US FED's policies, they were forced to sell. woundedknee: " i agree". You sound like an American too!!! Another gambler, who doesn't have a clue about the Springpole gold deposit, only about how much money he's going to make, today, tomorrow or next month!! Everybody loves to make some money. That said, go to Las Vegas and gamble, and leave the investing in companies to the retail investors. What a Shame!! The 2% in the US are investing, at the expense of the other 95%, who are gambling!! Where's the fairness here?? Time for a change!! Somebody said on another site, "They will keep going USA wants energy independence for coming world war 3". That said, "Wrecking Russia’s economy could be a disaster for the west". The US has already started on Canada!!
