Canadian dollar.

Our neighbours down south should be keeping eyes on the loonie.

Could have a chance to save a boatload of cash, by buying up here.

Example. I paid the same ( cdn funds) for my sabre, as they were being sold for , down south. ( us funds) So that trailer, at $55k cdn, would be under $39k usd.

$1.43 Canadian = $1 usd.

Unless this gets better, I think a lot more Canadians will be staying home. ( Canada)

Canadians pump a lot of money into the us economy.

Yup all good things...

I am seriously thinking of staying home, a 68 cent dollar is hard to deal with for a trip! Harvey's makes Hamburgers a Beautiful Thing BTW. Also Swiss Chalet makes chicken! Nothing better than a Beaver Tail on the Rideau in Ottawa in the winter!

It just means that when we buy fuel in the US it will come to the same price as buying it in Canada.

Gas.

Diesel is .96

Got a foot of snow last night, so I had to go play with the jeep.

Yes I went to order some parts today to fix a video production system. Cheaper by 25% for me to order and pay freight from China than from the USA. I just wait an extra week!
