Talk:List of countries by government debt
I went to the CIA World Fact Book and found that this list is completely wrong: See for youself: https://www.cia.gov/cia/publications/factbook/rankorder/2186rank.html
According to their website, Canada is 38% Debt to GDP ration, and here its 70?? Which Canada has not experienced since the 1980's? This list and the coresponding map are completely inacurate, and think this page needs to be updated or deleted.
~Archos, Canada
Norwaw is debt free you fucks! Yeah - you have my IP you fucking lame Americs!
Read the definition of Public debt before assuming incorrectness. --RealGrouchy 21:58, 30 December 2005 (UTC)
Why is Canada not listed here? --RealGrouchy 21:58, 30 December 2005 (UTC)
Norway
I don't get get. Norway has approximately 248 billion US dollars (1650 mrd NOK) in their oil fund. Why the **** would they have a debt to anyone? 130.243.248.239 23:18, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
Merger
I say that this page has only 2004 estimates while the other page has 2005's. The names of List of countries and territories by public debt is ambiguous, however, so I say the content in List of countries and territories by public debt should be moved to this page, and a redirect should be made. If no one says anything in a few days, I will do it myself as it is not a big problem. --J@red [T]/[+] 21:14, 16 March 2006 (UTC)

I actually came to this article looking for absolute figures, not relative to GDP. -- Beland 07:09, 11 April 2006 (UTC)
Map
Removed the Map of countries by public debt when I updated the figures on April 16, 2006. Removed it because it contained too many errors now. If someone feels like making a new/correct/updated one that would be good. Martin Ulfvik 14:49, 16 April 2006 (UTC)
- its been updated now --Astrokey44 00:22, 13 July 2006 (UTC)
Canada again
This article states that:
- "he federal debt as a percentage of gross domestic product is now at its lowest level in 24 years, he said. The ratio is 35.1 pct, down sharply from its peak of 68.4 pct in 1995-1996."
which is very different than the one quoted by the CIA. Should a note be added? -- Jeff3000 04:32, 26 September 2006 (UTC)
