DIE CANADIAN ECONOMY, DIE

Same is happening in Australia. Last i checked, it was something like 63 US cents or whatever. Really hurting my $US income.

doesn't have much to do with the canadian economy, its the US, you'd think the dollar would be good after they 'won' the war, so what the hell? either way im sure its just a matter of time before it goes back up. you know in this business, nothing is ever a sure thing.

It's got nothing to do with "winning" the war... or the war at all actually.

It's just that the US economy is still in the shitter with or without any war and the greenback is getting sold en masse.

just keep as much of your money as possible in US accounts, until the Canadian dollar goes back down to where it belongs.

john candies prophecy of 'canadian bacon' will sonn be fufilled. Mwuahahaha (evil laugh).

The Shemp has spoken :)

DH

i was doing that till i had to pay my taxes last month. then it really fucking hurt.

You wanna bring the US dollar back up? Help them catch Suddam and Bin Ladin....then this whole fucking thing well be over and the US well declare victory and everyone well be happy and invest their money back into the US economy......

Not being able to find the 2 most dangerous men in the world sure doesnt help the economy or the confidance of the people.

Hopefully when these tax cuts go through it'll allow people to spend more. In turn business can spend more, and unemployment will go down. 8-year high in April at just over 6%.

US Govt. has a pretty big deficit right now too, from war-spending and restructuring, so they can't spend as much as in the past to stimulate the economy.

Having Greenspan take another term will help investor confidence, so the economy is, I believe, in better shape than it appears. As long as ill-informed investors don't start making irrational decisions based on rumor and wild speculation, the dollar's strength should slowly climb, and yes, the sooner the major players in the terrorist game are put down the quicker that climb will be. Reason being, one less thing for the govt. to spend money on, ie more money to spend at home.
