If you look at the exchange rate graph, from the day Bush announced they were going to war in Iraq, the exchange rate started to drop. As the war has continued and the US economy has grown worse etc., the war has brought on the demand for oil from other places, like Alberta.. Which has improved our economy... So we've been double hit with our economy improving and theirs going down... Fuck me....
