Haven't seen Bearguide post before, but like everything from his name to his local knowledge! I know farm machinery doesn't work as quick in extreme cold (or the farmers!), but where I am in S MB it is not too cold now, so if it is cold on the Golden Mile, it should change for the better soon.

Only caught a bit if it on radio, but I believe Mr Richardson donated a nice whack of cash to a historical project in Wpg. I'll take it as a good omen that he doesn't see dire financial times in the immediate future! LOL Some other nat res plays of mine doing well, Denison Mines and Encana making great runs, wish I owned more NOT than I do. GLTA
