I have been thinking a lot about this lately, since I have some HBM shares that I bought when the stock was under 3.00.

To me that was a deal (steal) of a lifetime and I have already doubled that position.

I was in favour of the Lundin deal, and would have voted as such, only a blind fool would not be able to see what an amazing opportunity Lundin would have been. That was a good deal for resources, which HBM really needs.

Now see how much Lundin has been valued since the deal fell through and I just have to shake my head.

Now they are looking for someone to 'suit' up with? That is a crazy thing to do, there are vast deposits still to be found in MB and SK. All the small outfits would benefit immensly if HBM would just commit to its own back yard.

Message to Mr. Jones - Bring the head office back to Winnipeg and leave all those foolish Toronto bankers behind, they are just circling like a bunch of sharks looking for a tasty Manitoba pickeral snack.

Hud Bay and its predecessors were built on hard work which is what Manitoba is all about, nothing earned easy is worth earning in my opinion, it just makes you lazy and hungry for more of the same (hello to the bankers again).

Lalor Lake and Reed lake are the future of this company, they just need to see that.

Go WEL Go
