flamingogold, I actually mean the same as you. House market, finance sector, other service industry will not save Canada as the world is getting into a new era.<br /> <br /> 1. big picture of power shifting from western to eastern world; 2. maybe even bigger natural circle of population reduction (why nature tolerate unlimited increase of human being#) 3. rail market competation: Alstom needs train side since railway side just cannot compete China.<br /> <br /> Hence I think Bomber is a good investment if USD can somewhat hold its value. Surely Aero industry is now looks like the only industry may give a position in the new after financial industrial era.<br /> <br /> I tink I am one of the earlest expressed my disappointment and criticize on QC and CA goverment. They are not short-sighted. They do have vision. They are blind.<br /> <br />
