Of course the CDN to USD is .74
So one USD = $1.35 CDN
The GBP to CDN is hovering around $1.65 CDN.
Before BREXIT it was $1.90
Politics aside it's a great time to buy parts for our toys...

This is good news for our few remaining manufactures who export their widgets into the U S A
How could you not make a horrendous profit if you have a 33% advantage over your American competitors
Formula: use CDN natural resources (wood, wheat,coal,fertilizer,iron ore or anything grown or found in Canada,) assemble it or mfg it, sell it to the U S A, collect American greenbacks, pay your taxes and retire in Florida-
That is the Canadian dream

Personally I'm quite happy about it. Much of my family still resides in the UK and I can finally visit them again without breaking the bank. Britain had a record summer for anything related to the travel industry for that very reason.
Although it made me sad when I first heard the pound dropped. I had bought my radiator for $143 and after brexit I could have gotten it for $133 Only $10, but that could buy me a shiny new Rover badge or a couple oil filters.

A weak dollar would be the best thing ever for our US manufacturing base, and we've got lots of resources on hand.
