Actually that is not quite true. Holland makes land and so do many port cities. Vancouver area has quite a bit of land that was once tidal.

True, it was just an old saying.

They make it in Dubai and Hong Kong made land for an airport at least I think it was Hong Kong.

3 generations to pay off? It's due Jan 22 2025. The current 3 generations will be paying it off.




AS I have stated before - it WILL TAKE HUNDREDS OF YEARS and multiple generations to make ANY dent in our debt loads!


Recall back around 2005 - when oil prices were SO HIGH - and the oil tax revenue SO RICH that Ottawa under Conservative Harper was running SURPLUSES of $10 - $14 BILLION DOLLARS per year! Which of course is why Our idiot Boy likes the idea of a carbon tax SCAM as it makes a MIGHTY FINE GRAVY GRAB!



Our debt load then was a total of over one trillion dollars - thus if we had paid TEN BILLION DOLLARS PER YEAR
FOR ONE HUNDRED years against our debt - we would HAVE PAID MOST OF IT - after FIVE GENERATIONS!


We do not have a spare ten billion dollars! We have not paid a penny on our debt since 2008 as it was in 2008 that ALL western govts began running up debt to save our economy from the mortgage melt down!



And that calculation does NOT take into account the SOARING PROVINCIAL DEBT LOADS that were still building!



After five generations of ruthless penny pinching we would still retain notable debt!



Nor does it address the ROTTING INFRASTRUCTURE and need for replacement!


Nor the costly and rapidly growing health needs of our aging population!


Nor the cost of LIE-beral pension IOU`s issued to BUY HOG VOTES! Both Ontari-owe LIE-beral Wynne-bag and her federal counterpart Morneau have BOTH BEEN WARNED about using DISHONEST ACCOUNTING PRACTICES to hide that

RAPIDLY GROWING HOG DEBT!



IF - AND IT IS BIG IF - we had managed to pay off ten billion dollars per year into our debt load that had existed in 2007
it WOULD STILL HAVE TAKEN OVER THREE HUNDRED YEARS -15 GENERATIONS TO PAY MOST OF WHAT WE OWED!


That has NOT HAPPENED! And the cost of LIE-beral FAILURE to close the border and control the spread of Wuhan Pestilence means we will now need five hundred to a thousand years to pay what we owe!



And there is other cost and consequence of the Wuhan Pestilence - such as - the planned expansion of Toronto subway system



looks like it has been PERMANENTLY DERAILED! THE ABILITY OF GOVT TO BUILD ANYTHING has been crippled by debt!

Tesla will fail, it is inevitable




Oh that word "fail" is so harsh and final! I suspect that Tesla will not disappear completely!



Tesla will simply reach a point where its debts grow so large that it will be "restructured"!


Which seems to be Wall Street slang meaning SOME INVESTORS WILL GET SCREWED!



And other more privileged types will be COVERED!


It reminds me of a certain LARGE Cdn bank that decided the time was right for them to open a set of Yankee bank branches



and this was shortly after the Yankee Savings and Loan Trust Company MESS in the early 1990`s!


Sadly the Yankees were not willing to invest with stingy stuffy Cdn bankers and eventually the head office chose to CUT ITS LOSSES



and shut down - with those investors who had MORE than $30 grand invested with the bank getting all their gravy back!


And those will LESS than $30 grand told they would GET NOTHING BACK!



The bank made some VERY CAREFUL calculations about who would sue and would would win and etc



and made a careful choice over who they COULD SCREW!


Yankee law makers and LIE-berals generally consider that bankruptcy proceedings are an odd sort of BLOOD SPORT!

Whiting Petroleum files for Chapter 11. They were $350sish a share in 2014. Shale is collapsing just like oil sands.

Suncor and Teck are going to close Fort Hills.

The Saudi can just ramp up as much oil production as they want.

This is what the end of the oil age looks like

Here's what the oilpatch wants in financial aid from Ottawa

Finance Minister Bill Morneau made it clear to a Senate committee how dire the financial situation is in the oilpatch and how quickly his government is ready to act to provide some sort of relief to the beleaguered sector to keep companies afloat.
The relief was apparently coming quite quickly, as Morneau told the senators, "I'm not talking about weeks. I'm talking about hours, potentially days."

That was more than one week ago and the federal government has yet to unveil how it plans to help the oil and gas sector.

In recent years, the oilpatch in Western Canada hasn't had a lot of good things to say about the federal government. But executives around the sector these days are voicing few complaints — and even expressing words of encouragement.
As the federal government assembles some sort of relief package, oilpatch leaders are saying how well Ottawa is handling the situation and how communication about the issue has abundant and positive.
Several board members of the Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers are in weekly conversations with Natural Resources Minister Seamus O'Regan and calls with provincial government leaders.
"They've all been really just excellent in understanding the size of this crisis, and they're all over it and they're basically saying, 'We're making plans and we need your input to get it right,'" said Jonathan Wright, chief executive of NuVista Energy, a Calgary-based oil and gas company with a focus on northwest Alberta.
Wright wouldn't get into the specifics of those conversations, to respect the confidentiality, but said there is no secret about what the oilpatch wants.
"At a time like this, the number one thing is liquidity. The first three things are liquidity," he said.
When commodity prices are so low, oilpatch companies often struggle to obtain financing from banks, investors and the broader finance community.
"The last thing you want to see is, for example, your bank line shrink at a time like this, even though you're a strong company," said Wright. "Where the government can step in is ensuring they are providing liquidity and encouragement to the banks such that we don't get an undue compression of liquidity for strong companies."
The oilpatch is struggling because of three main factors right now: The decision by Saudi Arabia and Russia to flood the market with oil, problems with accessing funding from equity markets, and COVID-19, which has resulted in demand for oil to plunge.
Oil prices in Alberta are at record lows with a barrel of crude selling for about $4 US this week.
Still, any talk of financial help for the oilpatch will enrage critics who would much rather see government money used to promote renewable energy sources, instead of aiding the fossil fuel sector. If money goes to the oilpatch, they say, it should be aimed at helping workers, not companies.
This federal government has said it needs a strong oil and gas industry to help with the transition to cleaner energy.
The oilpatch doesn't want a handout or bailout from Ottawa, according to Grant Fagerheim, the chief executive of oil producer Whitecap Resources. Instead, industry leaders want the federal and provincial governments to look at ways to reduce expenses for the industry such as providing funding for debt and lowering royalties.
"Then you are not picking winners and losers, you're actually doing it overall for the energy space to help drive down their costs to make it more competitive with other places around the world," he said...…..More

Interesting unlike Que. and Ont. companies that want money donated to them the Oil companies just want costly regulations reduced and for banks to lend them money to get through this.

What a contrast between industries located in the East and West.

No doubt.. Much like companies such as Tesla that can not survive without federal/Prov/State cash rebates to sell their exploding cars


Translation - I hate electric cars for no apparent reason other than to own the Libs. `


Tesla is a poorly run company, huge debt, still haven't delivered on the cars that they took deposits on a few years ago and let's not forget this:
