| stinky1 (OP) User ID: 484869 12/27/2011 10:59 AM ![]() Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | [link to www.edmontonsun.com] Quoting: stinky1 At mid-month, Bank of Canada Governor Mark Carney warned that Canadians - that's you, that's us - had best get our consumer debt in order or face dire consequences when the world's economy collapses like a cheap tent. Yet today is Boxing Day. Everything gets cheaper today, even tents. Today makes Christmas shopping look like amateur hour. There are deals galore and, if one credit card is maxed out, there's always another. Or the shops will sign you up on the spot. And why wouldn't they, with interest rates at 28%? Whoa hang on a god darn second here. Mark Carney didn't say when, that's what the edmonton sun published. |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 7794603 12/27/2011 11:06 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | He has been screaming this for months now. This guy is the best in the world and all leaders listen to him. he is really pissed off because Canada has no real finacial problems compared to the rest of the world, we escaped with a little scratch. BUT because of the US and EU we will suffer for their lack of leadership and crack head spending. He has been in meetings with all of the troubled country's and has told them how to fix it but they say they cant do that. MASSIVE SPENDING CUTS that would make the American people and EU riot big time(might be the reason for that new law passed?) When Mr. Carney speaks TPTB listen we all should. |
