Default The Canadian Dollar!!!!

TORONTO -- Now that the Canadian dollar has reached parity with the U.S. dollar, how much higher can it go?
The loonie hit parity with the U.S. dollar for the first time in 31 years on Thursday, capping a 62% rise from 2002 on the back of booming commodity prices and a deepening disenchantment with the greenback.

Yeah it's been slightly higher than the US dollar for quite some time now. Vegas is feeling the extra business and so are places around the borders of Canadians cashing in on the good rate.

$12 a pack retail, but I get 'em at a wholesaler where I buy candy and stuff by the carton. Work out to $9.00 a pack, $72/carton!!!

Man I remember NOT TOO LONG AGO (5-6 years maybe), when smokes were $22/carton!!![:@][:@]
