How does terrorism effect the economy?

It has added a lot of volatility to the market. For instance, every time there is a "crisis" in the Middle East (Iran threatens Israel, etc), the price of oil goes up. This is because a war in that region would result in a disruption in the supply of oil (see the Iraq War), so any hint of a problem causes a jump in prices. Also, the attacks of 9/11 put the American economy into a recession. Whenever there is a lot of uncertainty (and the threat of terrorism does that easily), it creates a lot of risk aversion, which has a lot of negative effects on the economy such as less investment, less spending, and less risk-raking.

General Lafayette pinned down the British Army at Yorktown, Virginia. George Washington arrived with a larger army. He led all the armies and accepted the Surrender of the British forces.

(Lafayette could have attacked at any time and won a victory. He had a far more powerful army plus he had battleships ready to destroy the British Army from the rear. He knew it would be better for the future of the United States if General Washington handled the surrender so he waited for Washington to arrive with his army.)

What is the statute of limitations on debt collection in quebec?

The Federal Government and the Provinces have Limitation Acts which provide a limit on the time an unsecured debt survives. If an unsecured debt is not collected or payments are not made on the unsecured debt then after a certain time no legal action can be taken to collect the debt. A March 4, 2003 decision of the Supreme Court of Canada, Markevich v. The Queen decided that limitations applied to CRA as well as other Crown proceedings. Section 32 of the Crown Liability and Proceedings Act and Section 3 (5) of the BC Limitation Act barred collection of the Federal and Provincial portions of the debt since the debt was more than 6 years old. NOTE:Before relying on the forgoing please check with an insolvency lawyer for the latest information. The Federal Government has the habit of rewriting the law when a court decision goes against them. Examples from various provinces and the Federal Government: * British Columbia - Section 3 (5) of the BC Limitation Act sets 6 years as the limit for debt. * Alberta - The Alberta Limitations Act sets 2 years as the term which is extended to 10 years if there is a judgement. * Ontario - The Ontario Limitation Act 2002 , came into force on January 1, 2004. It sets two years as the term (Section 4). This limitation will be reinstated where the debtor acknowledges the debt or makes a partial payment towards repayment of his debt. If the default occurred prior to January 1, 2004, the creditor will continue to have 6 years to pursue the claim. However, if the default occurred after January 1, 2004 then the 2-year rule applies. * Federal - Section 32 of the Crown Liability and Proceedings Act sets 6 years as the limit for debt. Aphex Twin
