The reality:
Lower Canadian dollar, lower Canadian Wages brought about the huge office furniture business in Calgary AB. This plant was put up working around the clock, 7 days a week. 6 factories were shut down in the US.
At the same time the pulp and paper industry was doing very well, most their profits taken on exchange rates.
Our dollar became stronger; the Calgary plant is shut down and 7 have opened in the US.
Pulp and paper industry is tanked with majors like Waehouser and Attabi looking at starting up the old smokers south of the border closing modern clean plants in Alberta and Saskatchwan.
The point being, we are essentially one economy and the US are a multi trillion bucks into debt.
I think we should remain distinctly Canadian and Seperate from the US. I welcome the new influence of China on our economy which just may save us all!
