Hey, you still have a employees, a business and a house. Most of our American friends are unemployed, their companies went bankrupt and the bank foreclosed on their home.

One of the reasons we don't have all the problems is that we have a good government in Ottawa. Don't blame the government. Be thankful we have good government.

Unfortunately the bank owns my house and shop for another 10 yrs or so,..... so should things go south, so to speak, I could lose everything. I have seen techs in my business that used to have no problem getting jobs collecting welfare because nobody is hiring, so while I freely admit that some are prospering I think the majority are treading water paycheck to paycheck.
