RE:RE:running at least 11 rigs in Canada by August."In the clip, the CFO says they'll start to look at returning money to shareholders when debt is $40-50 million.  They should be there year end on a net debt basis. I'd like them to then do a share buyback of 10%. This would only cost $6 million even at $1.5 a share. A dividend of at least $0.10 annually for another $4 million.  These would only use $10 million so would still have left $10-20 million for debt reduction.  I don't think it'd get the shares to the ATB target, but at least to the $2 range up from the current pathetic $1.34.
