For sure. That's what happens in successful economies. The value of their currency increases. Does anyone down in your neck of the woods realize that the only way to get the dollar down is to tank the economy and throw people out of work? Then the dollar will go down and Montreal will get some of those $12 an hour t-shirt manufacturing jobs back from China.... maybe. But if they sell too many t-shirts, up goes the dollar again! Most voters simply have no clue how an economy actually works... for which the NDP is eternally thankful.
