Canadian Royalty Trusts in Need of an American Revolution

Thanks for this article. Not only do we hope for fair treatment, but we also
would appreciate honest treatment. We were assured by their government
that they would NOT raise taxes, that they would continue the trust form
of investment...and then once they garnered all the income from us they
changed the rules...It was a basic shell game. It was not honest.
I would hope that there would be some way for investors to be compensated for the money they lost based on that false promise. I lost
my total inheritance based on that promise. I am sure I am not alone.
I am no stranger from investing in the oil patch, and I am used to the
vicissitudes of the industry...but I have never encountered the amount
of false information as I've encountered with the Canadian Government.
