Yeah, but that's what happened after the Second World War. In Canada, you know, we had in the 1940s, we had 10 years of inflation to pay for the debt that we had after the war. So now, you know, not only the U.S., Canada and all Western countries, you know, have huge debt, huge deficit. So something will happen. So, and, you know, we will have to reevaluate gold.
We may have a kind of a gold standard. But inflation is bad for the population. It's good for government because they can print money and giving us a lot of gifts with paying for a lot of programs. But You know, that is creating inflation. And now you have inflation in the US and we have inflation in Canada and we may have that inflation for the next five, 10 years.

That's a way to deal with the debt. And I'm saying that, you know, the deficit of today or the taxes of tomorrow or the inflation of tomorrow. So the inflation is coming, is there and it is coming. And when you have inflation, what will happen after that? interest rate. They will have to go up. So we are in a very difficult situation, Canada and U.S. and other Western countries right now.

So that's why what Trump is doing by all these tariffs is asking all these countries, come and have a negotiation. But I believe the negotiation won't be on tariffs. It will be of a new monetary order. We need that.

It's a good question because China tried to buy some of our resources a couple of years ago, and at least the federal government did stop that. So, yes, it is under our control. But the problem is not who is controlling our natural resources. It's we are not able to exploit them with our regulations and taxes.

The last 10 years, the Trudeau government told the industry, the mining industry, and, oh, you know, Oil and gas, we need to get rid of that. It's not clean and we cannot exploit that. So he put a lot of regulations. We cannot have pipeline. We cannot exploit and export our natural resources. No pipelines. And that's the problem.
