Not sure what to believe anymore but some could say they have been bailed out, and some will call it differently.....Quote:

" CMHC mortgage program aided banks
One of the most well-known ways in which policymakers helped the banks during the crisis is through a $69-billion CMHC program whereby the housing agency took mortgages off the balance sheets of big Canadian banks. In contrast with other support facilities, all of the funds granted by the CMHC were through selling assets (in this case mortgages) to the housing agency. They were not funds that had to be paid back.
"
I wouldn't call that a bailout. That's an insurance payout. The mortgages are insured by CMHC. Banks accept them as insured mortgages and if the mortgagee defaults, CMHC pays out. Not really a bailout in that its not government money. It's premiums paid by mortgagees over the years.
I don't.Quote:

This time I'm going for a Bak Revolver X2 tonneau. There's no perfect tonneau out there but this seems to be the closest for my needs.
Now I need to figure out the electronics. Sync 3/touch screen/nav/etc?:scream:
