OH GOD. The Loonies...they rise up against us!
Seriously though I'd laugh if I ever had to use 'Loonies' in a sentence.


In these past 5 years I've seen WW2 fortifications along the Rhine, got my single-engine pilot's license, and drove in 3 demolition derbies. What the hell have you done today?

I don't get it.

What I mean is, US dollars are not the only currency in the whole continent. So the only thing you are proving is that United States's economy is going downhill, not the whole America's.

Freedom fries or french, they all have transfats. So can't we be happy that heart disease is truly universal?

:And freedom fries haven't been around since, World War II except in Arkansas and Oklahoma.
Yeah also my grandmother was Canadian. So don't hate me because I'm Texan.

Just because America's money value is going down doesn't mean the economy is going down too, it's still growing

I'd laugh if i had to say dollar bill. What's up with that? Coins are there to separate the money of high value from the money of low value, and to make exact change. I'd have to be fishing through my wallet just to find that bland, black and white $20 dollar bill from all the one dollar bills in my wallet.

That's why you keep them in order. Highest value to small.

*Vincent Price -"It 'pays' to keep your finances in order...muahahahaHAHA." *
*Onearmdude -"Go back to your '60s movies!" *

But yeah. I wouldn't gigle at the loonie thing because it's foreign, but because it's a normal word as well(ie loonies = madmen, psychos). Also because I think of the Goonies(Loonies never say die!). It's not a arrogance thing. I am 1/4 Canadian after all.

Hey Canadian idiots... value of currency doesn't mean your economy is better.

Case in point:

Japanese Yen to make $1 USD: 114.97

Mexican Peso to make $1 USD: 10.93

Mexico's currency is more than 10 times more valuable than Japan's

Does Mexico have a better economy than Japan? Nope.

Does Canada have a better economy than the US? Nope.

Meanwhile, Canada's economy is so dependent on the US, that it makes it hilarious when Canadians pretend their economy is better. Not only because Canada is only relatively prosperous because it borders the US and benefits from American investment, but also because if the US economy slows down, Canada's economy will be negatively affected.

Interesting facts:

- 85.6% of Canada's exports, and 76.3% of Canada's imports are with the US.
- Exports amount to 45% of Canada's GDP (yearly income)
- 30% of total employment in Canada revolve around exports. (that's about 10 million people)

For a Canadian to jeer at the US economy, just shows how truly delusional Canadians can be. How stupid can they be when they have to lie to themselves to feel better about their country? How stupid can they be when they literally cheer for economic downturns in the US, all while the whole reason Canada's economy is prosperous is due to the strength of the US, not only for economic benefit, but for security and political benefit from having a good relationship with the world's lone superpower?

Talk about inferiority complex. Canadians literally live in a perpetual state of delusion, of nation-wide misconceptions and myths... just so they can create some way of having pride when it couldn't otherwise exist.


Yay, Obama won. Let's thank his supporters:
-The compliant mainstream media for their pro-Obama propaganda.
-Black Panthers for their intimidation of voters.

That's because of what is called stock. When a company imports something from the U.S, they pay for it at the current exchange rate, but then if the dollar goes down. They can't lower the price, or else they would loose money. It's quite complicated.

Oh yes, and the looney. Who gives a fuck? Before the U.S had it's oil Canada's dollar was worth more anyway. It's nothing new. 19th century repeats itself. FTW!

Oh yes, hello ignorant faggot.
Facts:
Cellardoor6 is an idiot. 85.6% of Canada's exports, and 76.3% of Canada's imports are with the US? Bullshit. Around %45 of imports are from the U.S. And the exports part, wth? Do you even know what an export is dickweed?
30% of total employment in Canada revolve around exports. (that's about 10 million people)? And your point is?
Did anyone here say Canada's economy is better then the U.S economy? Don't even. We know our economy isn't as strong. We never said anything about our economy being better. Back off.

Way to sound smart with big words you stupid prick. Just because the Canadian dollar is like 3 hundreths of a cent over yours, your going to go around saying that all Canadians live in a perpetual state of delusion?? Canadians know more about your own country then you do you dumbfuck. Oh, and what misconceptions? Ones that compare to the fact that a good number of Americans think that the great majority of the lands north of them is Alaska? The reason we have pride is because we have very few people like you in our country. Good day to you sir.
