It was headline news this morning, even on CNBC (they were speaking on air about how Chinese officials are tempering expectations that Chinese consumers are going to lead the globe out of recession):

Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao talked at great length about Chinese concerns of a credit bubble and export declines two days ago:

Wen Says China to Keep Policies as Recovery Uncertain (Update2)

By Sophie Leung

Aug. 24 (Bloomberg) -- Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao said the government will maintain its fiscal and monetary policies as the economic recovery isn’t stable yet and faces many “uncertainties.”

Authorities can’t be “blindly” optimistic as a “decline in external demand may continue for a longer time” and excess production capacity may restrain industrial growth, Wen was quoted as saying on the government’s official Web site today.

China has yet to cement a recovery as factories have too much capacity and exports are weakening, officials said this month. China is using a 4 trillion yuan ($586 billion) government stimulus plan to help revive growth. The central bank scrapped lending quotas in November and has kept interest rates at a four-year low, triggering an explosion in credit...

I understand the need to temper EXPECTATIONS about the economic situation (political reasons etc.), but why would the government temper ACTUAL economic activity?

everybody loves Canada especially the Americans who think Canada is part of the US or the idiots on ET who think the US should seize Canada for its natural resources

It does make for interesting conversation though, doesn't it? Just imagine the chaos that would ensue LOL

Somebody really should write a book or a movie about the USA annexing Canada and the events that could take place afterwards. I think it would be rather interesting.

I've never heard S2007S comment on Canada's economy, but it's probably a safe bet that he thinks it's shit.



I was wondering what you thought.
