Man, would I ever love a deal done right now for Teck shares at these prices. 7:1 would value us at under $2...which I'm sure many here would figure was below our actual value, but would be palatable for Teck share holders??? I'd be one happy guy. C'mon Elmer I've waited too many Christmas' for a gift from CUU, too many relatives asking how that mining stock has done, too many decisions about putting more into TFSAs in The new year ....give me a lump of coal, that's cool, so long as my coal is in the form of Teck ownership :)
