kewp: That would have been good advice 5 years back (but buying RE would have been a better advice, provided you sold 2 years back!). But going forward, say 5 -10 years, do you think Canada is sufficiently decoupled from US to survive a USD fall without CAN $ falling in tandem? I don’t think Canadian economy can survive without a friendly trading regime in US. I think when USD falls a lot, Canadian $ has to fall to survive. The 3000 mile long (and 100 mile wide) hip is hard to separate.
