I thank Dennis Gartman for sharing comments made yesterday by Peter Van Loan, Canada's Minister of International Trade, regarding the fact that not everyone is going to behave as wrong-headedly as the administration of Kevin Rudd, Prime Minister of Australia:
"Our Canadian economic strategy has been low-tax low-cost to attract business investments. Canada has, if not the best, certainly one of the best mining sectors in the world, and we will continue to insure that Canada remains as competitive as possible for those companies to do business. So, I am confident you will not see a tax like that in Canada."
