Hey Nich, I honestly believe that W purposefully lowered the value of his currency to hurt Canada. We've been pissing him off too much, so he gets back at us through our pocket books. Believe me, my father's company exports quite a bit to the US, and since the US dollar went down, they can't afford to buy from us anymore. It's all a strategy to get us where it hurts until we bend over backwards for him.

On a related note, did you know that for the first time in history China surpassed Canada as the number 1 exporter to the US? That's a trend that's going to continue...
