Money
In 2009, the Ontario Provincial and Canadian Federal Governments invested $13.7bn in GM stock to help bail out General Motors. Three years later over half the money has been paid back. The remaining shares are valued at around $3.5bn Both levels of Government are looking for cash to try and reduce their deficits. The question is should they cash in these shares now, cut their losses and use the money to shore up their bottom line, or play the long game and bet on the share price rising enough over the next couple of years to cover the entire investment?

Comment, (optional)
  • hard to find info in the lead-up to the festival on bands & delegates.
  • mentor cafe was excellent. a number of no-shows really sucked. the ones who showed up were awesome.
  • wasn't told could share music at linda perry workshop. a member of the security was disrespectful.
