The Aussies are following right along. I’m a little surprised … not seeing the need for these new laws, except to further control the poplulation. Maybe one of our wandering Aussie friends will comment.
The growing push by Canada’s First Nations for sovereignty
LA TUQUE, Canada — For years, members of the Atikamekw First Nation have watched trucks rumble through their traditional territory, carrying out load after load of timber, only to see the profits slipped into others’ pockets. Recently, exploration companies have begun searching for rare metal and gold deposits on the land, a vast stretch of Canadian wilderness nearly the size of Maine. And like many First Nation tribes, the Atikamekw have had enough.
Atikamekw leaders declared sovereignty over the 31,000 square miles of boreal forest in north-central Quebec earlier this month in a bid to control the extraction of resources on their land. This week they issued another statement saying they won’t allow forestry work to continue on their ancestral land without their approval. The moves came after a game-changing Supreme Court decision this summer that recognized the rights of a First Nation in British Columbia to its ancestral territory. Now many tribes are examining if and how they can exert more control over the land they claim as theirs.
Most of the Atikamekw-claimed territory is interrupted only by a scattering of small towns and gravel logging roads. The First Nation group, consisting of about 7,000 people living on three small isolated reserves, has been fighting for greater control over its traditional land for years.
The declaration of sovereignty came after years of watching with frustration as the Quebec provincial government made deals with forestry companies without Atikamekw consent, said Constant Awashish, its newly elected grand chief.

Farmboy-I agree with you…I knew stocks had bottomed in March 2009 but I
kept out of the mkt just for the reason u mention…
Agree That Bull Markets Climb a Wall of Worry….
“Richard640 @ 9:41 on September 26, 2014
A bull mkt [in stocks] climbs a wall of worry.”
But this has not been a bull market of old, this is a totally manipulated ‘Artificially Propped’ up market. Imho.
Evidenced perhaps best by the lack of ‘normal’ corrections a run up of this magnitude should have experienced if I grasp normal market fundamentals.
Crackdown on freedoms? Australian Senate passes draconian anti-terror laws
Australia’s senate has endorsed new anti-terror laws that will grant its intelligence agency the right to spy on any citizen with just a warrant, while journalists and whistleblowers “recklessly” exposing special ops can face up to 10 years in jail.
The anti-terror laws, which cleared the Australian Senate on Thursday – and will almost certainly pass the House of Representatives on Tuesday – grants extraordinary powers to the nation’s spying agency, ASIO, to effectively monitor the entire Australian internet.
The National Security Legislation Amendment Bill allows one warrant to give the ASIO access to a limitless number of computers on a computer network when attempting to monitor a target. It also allows for the content of communications to be stored – while ASIO agents will be allowed to copy, delete, or modify the data on any of the computers it has a warrant to spy on.

Spit in their eye, and call their bluff.
You are Courageous !
Here is the oldest Wall St cliche on the books…but still, apparently, true=
A bull mkt [in stocks] climbs a wall of worry
and my corollary=a bear mkt slides down a cascade of optimism
since the low of 2008 we’ve had 11,000 DOW pts straight up-and everybody’s [myself included] been waiting for a crash and the end of the world…
Hey Farmboy
yeah, pick your poison, can’t believe anyone stays in the SM these days either, then again it gets ramped nearly every day – until it doesn’t.
As for the flag, nah, I picked one up at Wanka’s place. 🙂
Maya, Good To See You Back at Work !
You have had long enough vacation. 🙂
Time to get a head of steam on the Gold Train.
Best, Farmboy
Buygold, Dont Have a Clue, Throw a Dart ….?
There is so much going on in this world that is standing at the precipice who can say which domino triggers the Great Fall.
My thoughts were a couple weeks ago was ‘they’ would keep the markets hitting new highs until after the Elections in November. Now I am second guessing that idea……. ? I DO NOT see how any rational person, could possibly be in these markets at this time. Gives the term ‘Sheeple’ a whole new meaning does it not?
Well, lets steal some of Floridagold’s popcorn and watch the Three Ring Circus today. Say, you be interested in an American Flag. Slightly used, but still n good condition. Well, mostly. As in its mostly all there except for a small sample to make a pair of shoes.
Have a good one, Farmboy

Good Morning Fellow Goldbugs
Mad Mike, Thanks for the brew this morning. Making that apology tangible I see. lol Not only are you Da Man, your a Good Man to boot ! 🙂
My attitude is lets just get this week over and in the books. Cant remember a crazier week in the PM’s. Something must be seriously WRONG in the financial markets for the way they just keep pounding on Gold ( should have been up 100 bucks this week ) and Silver. Guess we will find out soon enough, but I think “something wicked this way comes”. Wondering if we will see a ‘stick save’ by the PPT today or do they allow the Market to continue yesterdays downward slide?
Guessing that back when gold was over $1,800 and Silver near $50.00, we would probably have sold our mothers to be able to buy at these prices today. Good time to be stacking at prices I doubt we will see again in our lifetime.
Keep the Faith, Farmboy
Coffee Time with a little tune for MacroMan:
“No one loves me but my mother …… and she could be jiving too”.
Are you the “tin man” ?
More careful than ever, thanks to your advice …… tx
Saw BB twice, but the best was at the Crazy Horse Tavern in Dartmouth, front row. Shook his hand and he gave me a lapel pin, same as he’s got on in the video, …….. I think BB likes Gold 🙂

what’s your honest opinion about the next phase of gold market….are you looking for a close to happen ….. shot up.. or even the little more bear to go.
or are your views natural .. just trying to get a sense of the insights of the gold followers here on the oasis.
thanks macroman3 .. would like to hear your take
ment
I’m thinking ment and Ororeef need to hook up…it would be like a golden brownie, kinda like a pepmint.
Same tinfoil, just a slower appreciation…
The taco meat would be the brown part for those already on the green.
Hey winedoc, just make sure he ain’t Purolator Tin
Ya know what I’m saying? Gata admit, my car parts go to a different garage.
I don’t even trust my own family. My bad
Heres an interesting Chart
Its the DOLLOR (UUP) with a Gold overlay$GOLD)
if you look close enough there is a lag of the Gold price to the Dollar of about 3 months.the pattern if shifted about 3months looks similar which indicates the Gold rise should follow the Dollar rise soon.Yes theDollor and Gold can rise together !It seem to today !
I think most chartest anaylist today would agree that the Dollar is driving everything,its the lead ..and then others Lag following the same increase and decreasein liquidity by an amout of time that reflects the Lag time of the relationship .
Ororeef @ 0:39 on September 26, 2014
that was an interesting description of your trading insight ..
Now as clear as possible as you connect the dots of the gold market .. what is your honest to goodness take on the next up trend in the gold’s out of this bear cycle…
some are saying a shot up by the end of the year .. other chart folks are saying, one more bear phase .. even gold to 1100-1000 or a smidge lower .. hui in the 100 area ., yes a pretty brutal outlook.. the charts to back up this third phase .
so plain talk ororeef which one of those opposing outlooks is closest to your dot’s ‘
thanks for a reply ment
Yes
Some of my Posts are unconventional,I’m out of the Main Stream,I don’t fall in line with the Sheeple ….I admit all that..
But I am good at Connecting the DOTS long before some others even see a trend ….I’m reasonally good at Math and I like regression anaylsis thats the kind of stuff where all the DOTS look very Random …but if you know how ,you can decifer a trend out of it….
Thats about the best example I can think of as how my brain works…I look at BROAD random looking pictures and sometimes I see a end Game…Thats how I bought my first Silver at $3.50 a few months before Buffett did.My first Gold at 250.00 per oz.I bought A&P stock in 1974 thereabouts at 5.25 and later sold it at $54.00 .I told my Doctor about it and he dismissed it as nothing there its.dead.
What he did see what was obvious ,and what was obvious to all is not worth knowing.What he didn’t see was $250 million hidden in an over funded Pension plan which calculated out to $11.00 a share in CASH in a stock selling for 5.25 ..I’ll take that anyday when I’m bottom Fishing in Bankrupt waters.Another Bankrupt company .White Cross stores who back in 1960’s was in Bankruptcy but had a little division called Toys R US run by a Genius Charles Lazarus ,but anyhow the Creditors insisted the management step down and a battle Royal ensued and in the end it was the Creditors who one the Fight and put the Toy Store Manager in charge of the whole dam thing .He sold every not connected with the TOYS and basicly invented the BIG SUPERMARKET BOX store for Toys .Prior to that Toys were a small sideline to Dept Stores.That stock was .65 cents in January of that year .I remember selling it at $13.00 after it became profitable .Apparently others discovered the Turnaround and bought into it.I sold too soon and 6 months later it sold at $39.00 .He certainly had the right last Name ..It rose from the DEAD….
I connect the DOTS now and see a enormous change forming many things are in reversals even as the the current Administration’s propaganda is Pumped from the Press at LOUD as they can.All I can say is turn off the Sound,Go deaf to the talking Heads .Live in your own world for awhile ,you will be rewarded…Many here at this site know this ,but don’t have a long term view only history can give you …….Back in 1974 I was fortunate to know an old guy from Texas (93) ..He helped me see the Longer view….Boy was he a bottom FISHER extraordinary…! and I had a wonderful Broker WE worked together like a symphony .Unfortunately he died after the crash of 1987 ..it killed him..I do miss him even to today..There are some GOOD people out there find them seek their views….Lots of patience .I held some stocks 10 years .
