Fossil, our Looney is being manipulated as much as gold and silver. All my opinion of course.

Excuses are that Ontario needs a low dollar to sell it's automotive parts to the US but for some reason that logic does not apply to Alberta oil or minerals from all of Canada.

It is no accident that our Bank of Canada governor was a Goldman banker and who eventually moved to Britain to do same there.

I feel that there is good justification for our Looney to be worth 1.30 US$s, a complete valuation reversal.
Just go back 20 years and compare Euros to C$, or Swiss Franks then to now.

What C$ 'strenghts' you see now is pittance. Ed.
