it depends which bank...

Would be nice if the Canadian Dollar would start going up against the Pound. Would be very enjoyable

Canadian/Euro, ever since the Euro was introduced into the Market its always been at like 1 Euro to 0.71 CDN$. I will be over joyed when it goes to 1 Euro to 0.80 CDN$.

I hope one day 1 GBP to 0.60 CDN$, not that would be heaven.

conspiracy theory #1 .. middle eastern countries want to start priceing barrels of oil in EURO rather then Dollars... The dollar would collapse overnight. There is a reason why the U.S dollar is also called the Petrodollar.

discuss..

The canadian dollar and Norway kroner are petrodollars.

The US is an international trade currency used for almost everything.

Soon the Greenback will be used as toilet paper.

i was thinking that... why dont they use the GBP as the cost of a barrel of oil?

1 Barrel = 158.98729 Liters. Man oil companies make a huge profit.

Canadian Exports for March 2006, in $ Millions

Energy Products: 7,533
Machinery and equipment: 7,177
Automotive products: 6,848
Industrial goods and materials: 6,663
Forestry: 2,936
Agriculture and Fishing: 2,519
Special transactions trade: 1,535
Other consumer goods: 1,281

Stats Can Source

This clearly shows that energy is our largest export, but it certainly is not the dominant one. The manufacturing sector takes the next two spots which gives us a strong position. Energy exports did increase 25.6 % from the same point last year, which lead to our dollar's rising value.

A pair of shoes I like in the States are $95 US. I buy them at Holt's its like $220 CDN. Pretty much double.

It's cheaper to buy certain things in the states now.

At the current time and in the near future this would be unfeasible due to the lack of Euros in circulation around the world. I read *somewhere* that European mints would have to produce bills nonstop for 5 years just to increase the amount of Euros in circulation to a level sufficient to support pricing Oil in Euros.
