It sounded to me like the government was colluding to develop - i.e. supporting the growth by not implementing tight regulations to keep things from getting out of hand. Would appreciate knowing anything you find out... and if there's things you need, please share that I can see if there's anything I can do. Best regards, Scott the Montrealer. hi Brant;
