No doubt PMs in the "unwanted" category at the Federal level!

Canada sold its reserves at fire-sale prices, maybe the Mint staff just fired it into a dumpster, after all governments have been treating the yellow metal as little more than waste!

Check dept of Finance memos to the Mint. There may be a directive to "dump" all PM's!

The process was underway as the auditors arrived!

Case closed.

Wouldn't make the "top ten" on a list of "government gaffs!"
