   Low competition.  Union labour, high Canadian taxation getting passed   
   on.  Dose of inflation added.

   2010 will be the year of inflation.  The price we pay for our   
   governments indescression with debt and money creation.  I expect as our   
   US and CAD currencies fall relative to the rest of the world that costs   
   across the board are starting to creap up.   
      
   Last months US numbers tell the story.  GDP up 3% yet unemployment is   
   also up.  That only happens because of inflation.  If GDP is up, and the   
   use of labour is not also up, then it means cost increases are making it   
   into the supply chain.   
      
   If gold is an indication, and like the past history again repeats   
   itself, about 300% inflation is due in the next 5 to 10 years.  Now that   
   the economy is no longer decreasing in dollars (but is in value), and   
   the duration of this economic downturn, we have fully met the definition   
   of the term "depression".  The Great Government/Debt Depression of   
   2008-20xx".
