Canadian Dollar surpases American Dollar

[spywarebanisher]

Oh, I don't really follow politics.

politics doesnt really have much to do with this. this is just current events.

Try buying being canadian and buying computer parts. You won't feel like your dollar is that great anymore.

It's true, it's true yet we, as Canadians, remain to be baffled as our prices are frozen at a rate much higher than the states'. Our only benefits are experienced when we travel to the U.S. now. The irritating, yet somehow funny thing, is that we may not see a drop in our prices for years if the dollar remains at this level. I honestly hate the politics with this shit and hope that they would let economics naturally run its course.

It's not politics at all...it's economics

And yeah, it's been that way for a whilee. The dollar is definitely not the best, it's actually terrible right now.

I don't know if I agree with that, imo it is US foreign policy (politics) coming back to bite the US on the ass as the rest of the world says "Enough" causing the $US to devalue (economics)

Hell even the $A is 90 odd cents US, it is traditionally around the 70c mark.

this means that you guys will get higher prices on stuff now though

not really, usually our stuff is always cheaper for some reason, no matter how much our dollar is worth

[Half Evil]
