Still .. the problem is ..  US $$ is so so so weak ..  

Why everyone else still need to export goods to US for cheap?

Look at CAD $ vs Euros ...  I think last 5 yr .. always around ~ $1.4 range ...  (but UK pound has dropped too .. )

Anyway, for shopping, not bad to go US and UK now .. ^_^

Canadian is higher and goods are expensive in Canada; thus no one wants to spend money in Canada including those coming to visit for Olympics.  People go somewhere else to look for their needs.

That's why half of the big name shipping yard closed down in Vancouver.

Be careful with Portland.  My friend lives in Seattle and found that some stuff are cheaper in Seattle even after tax.

We as Canadian won't get the same selections and deals compare to the US. If you look carefully, US has much more options for the same thing.

When will our car prices be on par with the US?
