That is why I am a Canadian bank shareholder: I let my bank do my stealing for me. Canadian banks are coddled by the government in Canada so much that they can't lose. Not surprising that they are envied by crony capitalists everywhere.Comment

They are well protecting themselves in my opinion. I dont think the oil industry losses will touch them. Bmo should be 100 by year end. If anyone walks away from a morgage it is their lossand the banks gain.Comment
