You have it backwards. $1 USD = $0.99739 CAD. Which means in terms of value CAD > USD.

Americans should. Its either a tremendous sign that the canadian economy is extremely successful (doubt it) or that the american economy is going down the **** hole (most likely).

Or that the Bush administration thought it would be a good idea to lower interest rate by a ton.

On the bright side it does encourage tourism and exports.

It's a combination of both. The tar sands in Alberta have been fruitful for the economy of Canada (or at least for that province). However, the increased value of the Canadian dollar also harms Canadian export.

yes, if you had bought canadian money in 1999 and sold it today youd almost have made a profit after losing exchange fees and the interest you could have earned on that money
