The Canadian Dollar, as represented by the 1$ coin's logo (the loon) is usually referred to as
the loonieThe value of the Canadian dollar, or loonie, has again been on the rise in recent months (+ 10% this year) when compared with the US$ (heck, it's done well compared to most foreign currencies). Though in the past week or so there has been a decline, the loonie is still expected, by most economists, to achieve parity with the greenback (US$) by year's end, or soon thereafter.
So this thread is intended to focus on the news, or effects of this economical development.
Sorry to disappoint those who were expecting bugs bunny.
