So, should we start a pool? What time this week with the CDN$ reach parity with the US$?
We could have a second one... How long before consumer prices in Canada reflect this fact? :lol:

Yeah, must have happened just as I was posting. Wow!
And just think, only 5 years ago I was getting up to a 60% bonus on my US salary. Last year I knew I would take a pay cut to work in Canada again, but that's not the case anymore.

You'll get used to it. Where I live, we can hear the whistles nightly. When we moved from Toronto to Bowmanville, our kids were worried that they wouldn't be able to sleep due to the lack of noise, as we had lived bya shunt yard. needless to say, the kids didn't lose any sleep! Some old time residents told us that they had moved away, only to come back because they missed the trains :ph34r:
