The strength of the Canadian dollar is a good thing. Canadian purchases
of American goods have increased considerably. And thanks to the
administration's action on the lumber tariffs, we're buying more
Canadian goods as well. But I miss being able to eat a slab of ribs for
less than ten bucks at Tunnel Barbecue. Can't have it all.

Don't be making fun.
Our dollar's strong and yours has been weakish - we're up over 90
cents on your dollar (up from a low of about 60 cents on the dollar
just a few years ago). Experts (what, economists are experts? har!)
say that within a year, our dollar may overtake yours.
We'll see who's talking about dollarettes this time next year! <g>
cheers,
