RonyVickie: A lower Canadian $ v the US$ certainly does affect you. Especially in the winter when most fruits an vegetables are imported. If you shop at Wal Mart or Canadian Tire where most of the goods are Chinese prices will go up as those goods are paid for with US$. Very few countries price their goods in Loonies. Look around your house at all the imported items bedding, small appliances, furniture, most clothing and more. Your car contains a lot of imported parts. Both US and Chinese made. Even I-tunes is raising their prices in Canada due to the lower Canadian $. Many Canadian Companies utilize US technology. They pay a royalty fee which is in USD. We are the largest trading partner with the US. About 300 Billion $$ a year!. Some of that $300 Billion must be in your living room! You would have to live off the grid to avoid buying any imported products.
