Goldman Sachs' people whose only motive is to make themselves as rich as Midas are going to provide input into the regulation of derivatives! That's for sure the fox guarding the henhouse.<br /><br />Carney taps Goldman Canada's Hodgson for new special adviser<br /><br />Jeremy Torobin and Boyd Erman<br /><br />The Goldman Sachs alumni network of high-ranking officials has added a new member to its Canadian chapter.<br /><br />Bank of Canada Governor Mark Carney has tapped former colleague Tim Hodgson from the powerhouse investment bank that has frequently supplied members to a group of financial industry fixers around the world.<br /><br />Mr. Hodgson, currently chief executive officer of Goldman’s Canadian operation, will spend 18 months as a special adviser to Mr. Carney beginning in September, the Bank of Canada said.<br /><br />His background and personality traits likely put him in good stead to push the central bank’s wish-list through the warren of competing interests on Bay Street, observers say. He will work with regulators and financial institutions on new rules for derivatives and new standards for the capital that banks must hold in reserve to cushion themselves against disaster.<br /><br />More here:<br /><br />http://tinyurl.com/33bkaefJRnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5724181159639068489.post-74788895070071873242010-06-30T09:40:06.990-04:002010-06-30T09:40:06.990-04:00Here is the extension of GS power through our Gove...Here is the extension of GS power through our Governor of the Bank of Canada, Mark Carney--<br /><br />Carney will head up global bankers' group<br /> <br />Financial Post June 30, 2010<br /> <br />Bank of Canada governor Mark Carney has been appointed to head a committee of global central bankers whose mandate is to monitor world developments for threats to world markets and the global financial system.<br /><br />More here:<br /><br />http://tinyurl.com/3ygkna3JRnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5724181159639068489.post-39722828873166716872010-06-30T09:35:21.550-04:002010-06-30T09:35:21.550-04:00No, it is not your imagination, Larry.
In Canada,...No, it is not your imagination, Larry.<br /><br />In Canada, our public broadcasting system called the CBC has had its funding cut. The first people to be given a pink slip were the investigative reporters. We are not getting our news because of funding cuts!!<br /><br />We have a ultra-Conservative government in power right now and they accuse the CBC of having a Liberal bias and that is partly the reason, I believe, that funding has been so drastically reduced. We are also soon to get a "Fox News North" broadcaster which will promote the Conservative point of view. Oh, where will it all end?
