True.

Irrelevant, but true. :D

Perhaps they'll do less cross-border shopping. Meanwhile I continue to bring U.S. dollars into the country which are of course now worth more, thus I spend more into the local economy. However, sorry to piss on the rave but Canadians like myself aren't really all that further ahead because of this. Prices on just about everything have risen in the past year, moreso than in other years, because virtually every industry, business, and utility out there wants to recoup their losses, extra costs of doing US business, and the banks aren't helping by slapping their extra little fees everywhere and on every type of account imagineable. $5 a month "management" fee, $15 "wire transfer recieving fee", $100/yr "just cuz" fee, etc etc et-fucking-cetera.

But yeah, Prince is right to be dancing all over like a shell-shocked WWI vet. An extra $250-$300 CAD on every $1,000 USD = party party party time (except it really doesn't) (not really).

What the hell does the average Canadian have to do with Canadian webmasters making their money in USD and spending their money in CAD?

i'll quote myself... just cause. we're almost there! if fed raises rates today, chances we hit it before year end. yay!

Not a bad thing for people living in Canada getting paid in USD.
As for a housing market correction.
I would not bet to much on it hitting Vancouver or Toronto hard.
As the dollar and price of oil drops, many will leave AB seeking work elsewhere so the demand for housing in places with less than a 2% vacancy rate may not become a reality. It may become one for areas with higher vacancy rates as the supply / demand pressure is not there to support the prices as the CND drops lower.

i think you mistake leverage for demand. house prices are this high, not cause there's that much more demand. they are high because rates are low and people get qualified for insane mortgages with relatively low income. once economy turns for the worst, as it always does after a cycle ends, people will be squeezed and house prices will turn across the country.

nah. even if USD corrects say 15%, you're looking at at least 20% if not bigger correction in canadian real estate prices.

Elli 12-16-2015 03:59 PM

I got 1.3541 today for my moneys. Not too shabby! Then I realized a $40 trip to the grocery store is nearly a $75 trip now. Hrm.

I don't see the CAD improving. Low oil prices, low commodity prices, Fed interest rate hikes and Iran joining the oil market soon. Very good news for those Canadians earning in USD.

I remember the days of $1.55 then the plunge to $0.96. Good times for some.

Yeah, rent in 2000 was $1300 and my mortgage in 2001 was $1400. Those were the days.
