For your info, article in Financial Post Oct. 20th penned by Martin Pelletier, CFA, Portfolio manager at Calgary based TriVest Wealth Counsel Ltd.

"There are signs that we are approaching the bottom of the ongoing bear commodity cycle, after slowly working through a massive surplus of inventory caused by seven years of over-capitalization at the start of the millennium. The big question is if China and other emerging countries have also reached their lows and can finally provide a much-needed boost to global demand."

This is only one expert's opinion, but if true, bodes well for the ROF. With a new Federal government in place and all parties prepared to move forward ASAP, there should be no reason for any more stalling and now definitely is the time to get the shovels in the ground so we have the product available when required. More delay cerainly benefits no one. We have the goods so lets git er done. rj
