Canadian Dollar at 1.05 US! |
|
Wow never thought I'd see the day. At the store where I work we are offering a 90% exchange rate on the US dollar. Getting a few pissed of Americans but most are nice about it.

er, i'll be 46 next month.
On the plus side, this should make my salary negotiations for a job up there somewhat smoother...

5. It has been a tremendous boost for my company |
|
Our sales, both preproduction and printing, are up over 300% this year due to the strong CAN$. Our owner was ready to shutter the place five years ago when it was weak and we lost much biz to Canuck printers. We are also now getting inquiries from Europe so I'm not so sure that a cheaper US dollar is such a bad thing in the short term--over the long run, a different story.
