Now your $1 is worth 95 cents Canadian

The Canadian dollar reached on Monday a 47-year high versus the US greenback, gaining on the US currency's recent weakness, as well as soaring demand for oil and other natural resources.

At 1500 GMT, the American dollar was worth only 95.47 Canadian dollars, while the loonie, a sobriquet given to the Canadian dollar, was being traded for 1.0474 US dollars.

Whether justified or not, I'm becoming ashamed of my country...and I'm as patriotic as they come.

Analysts noted that all major currencies were increasing in value against the US dollar in anticipation of an interest rate cut by the US Federal Reserve on Wednesday.

You work hard and save your money....and this is your reward. Devalued currency that won't buy anything but crappy Chinese furniture.

Maybe you can start a vending machine company that takes Canadian coins. It would actually help you.

This statistic could be used very well in advocating RP's monetary policy. Damn man, I remember the time when comic books reflected a better ratio between the greenback and the Canadian dollar.
