One US Dollar Bill + One Loonie = $1.70 US

[John-Edmonton]

Out with my buddy today. Too much snow in the woods, and too little on the sleigh hills. But, we gave it our best and got a US dollar bill directly outside my car passenger door and one loonie on the hill. Our Canadian Dollar sucks against the US greenback.

Its been really windy here lately. That was probably my buck that just got away from me. You can keep it as a souvenir but send me the Canadian, please.....

I'm glad we didn't change to a coin. Never liked carrying change.

There's a few more forums you missed to cross post this on. LOL! You must be a my glass is half empty instead of half full type. You have a 2.40 in your hand.

I envy Canuck's coinage. "I once found a Toonie and you'd have thought I found another gold coin.

Our Loonie isn't doing well against the American Dollar for sure....It was just 3 or 4 years ago we were at par but because of the drop in oil/gas prices the Canadian dollar drops against the US...Not only that...we have to pay much more for a new detector...Canadian dealers raise the prices of detectors so we have to pay 30% more for a new machine compared to the same unit a few years back...It could possibly be cheaper to buy one from a US dealer at a lower price provided customs don't get us at the border...I was hoping to get a new detector soon but because of this 30% increase, it would be wise to wait to see if the Canadian dollar rises again...
