I don't know a lot about Canadian banking laws, but even I'm aware that Canada suffered relatively little in the big crash because it had chosen not to follow most of the world into turning banks into casinos.
Gimme a phuking break!
Harper did not try to de-regulate the banks in anywhere close to the way the US deregulated. Not even in the same solar system.
Really, you need to get in touch with reality before you post. Your posts are becoming increasingly ridiculous.
Harper is not responsible for the world economic crash.
He isn't responsible for your acne either. (That's sarcasm. Look it up)
Buy The Big Short. Read it. Harper isn't mentioned once.
Do you know who deregulated banking in the USA?
Democrat Bill Clinton.
Do you know who tried to roll it back in 2002?
Republican John McCain, in a bipartisan bill that was defeated.
LEARN SOMETHING.
Harper Derangement Syndrome is strong in this one.
It'sOK princess... I know that it's a hard, hard world for liberal snowflakes like you.
You go on and click the heels of your ruby red slippers together 3 times and repeat there's no one like tater tot each time you click those heels together.... Everything will be just fine
Canuck banks are strongly regulated and this is one reason that they had less exposure to higher risk derivatives.
In this case, they benefited, but the flip side to that relates to potential missed opportunities
Wow!
You might want to do a little research there, Hoid.
Pretty much everything collapsed after the corrupt Liberals were shown the door.
If Harper had been in power earlier say during Bush 2 Canadian banks would probably have been deregulated and Canada would also have been in the sub prime swamp.
But our poor banks were not allowed to participate - except by doing business in the States which they all wallowed in.
YOU could say that same thing about Iraq.
Had Harper been in power we would have been part of the Coalition of the Willing. Would have lost 2000 soldiers in Iraq for absolutely no reason?
Fate was kind to us.
Pretty much everything up here DID NOT COLLAPSE - thanks to the Liberals paying down the debt by $90 billion dollars, staying in budget surplus for years on end.
I think you don;t understand what happened down there. People lost their homes. Lots and lots of people.

Yep, Canadian banking regulations were what saved us from complete meltdown you guys suffered in the U.S. If you want to buy a home in Canada and you need to get a mortgage, it must be cleared by the Canadian Housing Mortgage Corporation. The other thing that kept Canada afloat during the recession was Alberta jobs generated by the oil and gas sector.
I know exactly what happened down there. Read my above post. It had bugger all to do with the deficit and everything to do with regulation and the oil and gas sector keeping us afloat during global economic crash. The U.S.A. wasn't the only casualty. I'll credit our banking sector for having tighter restrictions, but trying to say that the corrupt Liberals saved us by not going to Iraq (which I opposed) is beyond the pale of ridiculous.
You might want to avoid mixing facts with ideological nonsense.

You should restrict your comments to things you know about.
I apologise for embarrassing you yet again but really, it's not my fault. I'm just trying to let people know the facts.
You should restrict yourself to an indoor mini-putt. Being the same redundant one trick pony you are got boring years ago.
And apologize has a "Z", idiot.
There's even a red squiggly line to help you. Just right click, you'll still be a dick, but at least you'll have learned how to spell a new word.
That's a huge income producer for gvt.... Why, just the royalties alone might be enough to fund the entire country
Ludicrous.
First you want to blame Harper for things he never did.
Then you praise Chretien/Martin who did pay down debt, thanks to increased revenue flow provided by NAFTA and the GST, introduced by Mulroney, trashing the Canadian military, and downloading on the provinces. Well and good, if you ignore the fact the Chretien Liberals were among the most corrupt gov'ts in Canadian history, with criminals everywhere and an alleged "made man" mobster in cabinet.
And you understand nothing about the crash. Read the book I recommended
Then you go on to yap about Iraq, which is absolutely irrelevant to the subject, and in which Harper was right. Saddam was a fascist, genocidal mass murderer in violation of a peace agreement.......he needed to go. BTW, the USA with a maximum strength in Iraq of 192,000 in 2003 lost 4424 military dead in Iraq. The idea that a Canadian contribution of a couple of thousand would have led to 2.000 Canadian dead is nothing short of idiotic.
Instead, Chretien stepped up to the plate in Afghanistan to make up for his refusal to enter Iraq, and sent troops without armour, without helicopters, without even proper uniforms to the most dangerous area in Afghanistan, where we lost 152. The shortfalls in equipment were corrected by the Harper gov't.
You really need to learn something.
What do you expect from Global warming Liberal Ideologue such as him and Flossy......two peas in a pod!
Really?? Have you ever met a liar at anytime in your past? To answer that you would have had to catch somebody in a lie. The bank are known to create a 'bad situation' just so when that is not done the return to what is 'normal' seems like an elevation above that level and the ones causing the restriction take credit for there improvement but not the underlying cause that a fix was needed at all. In one instance it can be the act of a good Samaritan or the workings of an intricate lie.
Residential areas that we know are not what replaces them when when they crumble. Apartments might be the home of the future as the next phase of the 'gated community' where the Gov buys the apartment for them using taxpayer money and the utilities would be taken off the cheque and sent directly to the corporations that own the utilities.
That is an industry that is regulated by outside forces. In the boom years it is a reaction allowed by the public in reaction to lies that are on the global level. The gas shortage in '72 was followed by a boom that was financed by taxpayer through subsidies by the Gov. Rather than cheap out like they usually do (Texaco, Brazil) they maxed out by building the base-work into the farthest regions they wanted to explore. That was a short time help to the local economy but since it was in a boom the imported work-force left with a lot of the cash. Exploration is replaced by development of the explored area and after that come service and administration and repair. Each change needs fewer 'workers' and the population is growing rather than shrinking.
On a Provincial and Federal level the international corporations were taking home more than the Taxpayers were even though they owned the oil. Mineral rights and water rights are not part of the bill of sale of land locations anymore. Guess who own them?? It isn't the oil and gas companies.
In a world where the banking industry is efficient there are no crashes, let alone when they follow a 7 year cycle from at least the start of the 1900's.
For keeping the Canadian economy stagnant when when it could have been in profitable expansion mode. If you look at the deal between the US and us they have the right to be our only customer as far as oil goes. In a national emergence if the US needs the oil and gas (and whatever) they have the rights to it before Canadian citizens, other than the Gov and the Corporations.
That was the 2nd place the wars based on 9/11 went. We signed onto the Afghan campaign. This is as close as it comes to the Governments view of what happened on 9/11

That might just be for first time home buyers. I recently bought a home and took out another mortgage and didn't have to go through that rigmarole.
