Uranium miner Cameco says 2018 production target no longer makes sense
– canadianbusiness.com
SASKATOON – Cameco chief executive Tim Gitzel says it no longer makes sense for the company to keep its goal of producing 36 million pounds of uranium a year by 2018.
He says the company continues to like the long-term prospects for the industry, but the near- to medium-term outlook is too foggy to support that target.
Cameco (TSX:CCO) says it expects to produce 23.8 million to 24.3 million pounds in 2014.
The uranium miner says it earned $64 million, or 16 cents per share, in the quarter ended Dec. 31, up from $41 million, or 10 cents per share, a year ago.
Revenue for the three-month period totalled $977 million, up from $846 million.
Adjusted earnings for the company were $150 million, or 38 cents per share, down from $233 million, or 59 cents per share.

Stephen Harper must abandon obsession with austerity in budget: Liberals
– canadianbusiness.com
OTTAWA – Deputy Liberal leader Ralph Goodale is urging the federal Conservatives to abandon what he calls their obsession with austerity in Tuesday’s budget.
The former finance minister says it’s the wrong policy when households are carrying record levels of debt, the country is running a chronic trade deficit and businesses aren’t boosting their investments.
Goodale says the government should allot more money for infrastructure and access to post-secondary education, while eliminating tariffs on consumer goods and reducing the burden of higher employment insurance payroll taxes.
He says the Tories should also stop spending millions of taxpayer dollars on advertising unless there’s some accountability on how that money is spent.
Goodale says he doesn’t know whether the Tories should delay their self-imposed deadline of 2015 to balance the books because he doesn’t have access to all the financial information they do.
But he says he’s skeptical of the Conservative math because they’re planning to balance the books, in part, by simply not spending the money they’ve promised in the budget…
