Belgium has hit back against an EU plan to use Russia’s frozen assets to aid Ukraine,
describing the scheme as “fundamentally wrong”
and throwing into doubt how Europe will fund Kyiv.
Belgium hosts €183bn of Russian assets, about two-thirds of the Russian assets immobilised in the west, at the Brussels-based central securities depository Euroclear.
In a sharply worded letter, Belgium’s prime minister, Bart De Wever, said the proposal violated international law and woul…

Good Morning #Canada
Did you know that a Dodecahedron is a 12-letter name for any 12-sided shape. And did you also know that on this day in 1962, the Canadian Government decreed that our dodecahedron nickel was decadent and that round was right. Pre-1962 nickels are now pretty worth a nickel, but a coin in "mint condition" has been known to fetch a few pennies more.
Have you noticed there are more coin buying events in your neighbourhoods over the past few years? Some of that activity is driven by buyers taking advantage of people wanting to sell old jewelry, collectibles, or jars of coins that are sitting in the back of drawers or closets. But the rise of digital transactions, particularly increased during COVID when no one wanted to touch your infected money, has increased the collectible value of coins and, in some cases, the actual metal value exceeds the face value.
