    $1 US = $1 CAD - it is pretty much a done deal

    With the bank's typical 2 cent per dollar service charge, it is pretty much a done deal this morning, as the CAD is about to hit 98 cents (currently 0.97826 according to XE).

    *sigh*

    When is the porn internet stuff going to start being quoted in Euros?

      Most likely when the largest amount of buyers are no longer U.S. Citizens.

          just checked xe.com and the current ratio is:

          1.00 USD = 1.02277 CAD

          really sucks!

                  I'm starting to wonder when the $$$ will start to raise again. I just heard a news that the petrol barrel reached 81.8$

                            well, thats because OPEC can just put out bullshit reports on supply and reserves to get the price to go up and fatten their wallets.

                                      Peterk, here's some homework for you. Go look at the price of oil in the last 4 years. Then go look at the exchange rate of the euro to the dollar, and then look at the price of oil in euros in the last 4 years as a result.

                                      The reality is that high US dollar oil prices haven't affected the rest of us as much because the exchange rate has damped out a fair bit of it. The $81 barrel of oil for Canadians appears to be only a $50 barrel of oil when you consider how the exchange has moved - yes oil is up, but not by the 3 times that the US is seeing.

                                      I think that in many ways, this is a nice sneak economic attack on the US by the oil producing nations, many of which are against the US.

                                          Gold's nice but as it's priced in U.S. $'s any appreciation in the Canadian dollar will lead to a corresponding depreciation in the value of your investment.

                                                  JFK, there is more chance that Quebec seperates from Canada than Canada will give in to a common currency. The very most that would ever happen would possibly be a "fixed peg" with a yearly revision or something, to avoid the up and down roller coaster.

                                                  Most Canadians like being Canadians. They don't aspire to being junior americans.

                                                    There's not a chance in hell that Canada is going to give up the right to make it's own monetary policy to a U.S. dominated central bank.

                                                    Here's a great election slogan "Elect me and I will let the U.S.A. set your mortgage rates" How many votes do you think that party would get?

                                                          Of course it is and the only way they will force it upon both the American and Canadian people, is if there is a benefit for them both. They want to even up both our currencies so the Amero looks good. They won't bring Mexico in on it because they are still a source of very cheap labor, so equaling their currency to ours would kill that.

                                                          It's really the only way we will be able to deal with China in the future as well as the Euro. Face it sooner or later oil is going to get sold in either Euro's or Yen. Once that happens the dollar is done for, so the only way to solve that issue is the Amero.

It's set to expand 2.5 percent this year, outperforming the U.S. for the first time in five years, according to a Bloomberg News survey this month. Canada's benchmark rate is 4.5 percent.

                                                                                      Canada's currency, nicknamed the loonie after the image of the national bird on the one-dollar coin, has risen 5.1 percent against its U.S. counterpart since June 12 on speculation losses related to subprime mortgages would prompt the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates.

                                                                                      ``The equity market is rallying, and commodities are doing great,'' said Firas Askari, head of foreign-exchange trading in Toronto at BMO Capital Markets. ``The market is in love with the Canadian dollar again. Parity is probably a matter of when, not if.''
