Following is the link to Pt.2 of Peter's talk from the 2010 Norton Rally in Lumby, B,C. Canada. Peter Howes is the man behind Norton Canada. At aprox 4' 30' into the video he explains how the down payments in Canada are protected by Ontario's legislation and the money is held in trust. I would imagine the trust account would still be a form of collateral for the securing of other loans though. I'm not a financier, can the trust funds be locked in for a period of time?
It's clear these players are in as deeply in their pockets as they are in their hearts. In today's business world people are more prone to trip you than extend a helping hand. Has anyone mentioned conspiracy theories yet?
Lets see, the video talks about all the triumph guys that were stole from triumph.... or lets see... a billionaire business tycoon with a few politicians in his pocket who in turn have some EPA executives in their pockets :
a) doesn't like the colour of his tie
b) who's great grand dad never won a race in the 40's because he was always beaten by a Norton
c) doesn't like Garner's religious beliefs
e) plans to buy the venture at 10¢ on the dollar after it goes bust
It's a real life saga that we read about in the papers or see on tv coming out of hollywood. Guy slides off a cliff but his friend just catches his hand and there he is dangling. The friend doesn't have the strength to hold him, cut to close up of hands slipping to fingers, then it happens he falls, but wait! His back pack snags on a crocked old tree growing from the side of the cliff...
