Not since about 1965.
About five years ago, the Canadian dollar was about 60 cents us.
What, that it was par? It was actually at 110 two years ago. I’ve been waiting for the CDN to drop, but with it staying high, is great news for me.
Actually, the Canadian dollar got up to $1.06 in 1976, fell to 62.6 cents in 1998, and hit $1.10 in 2008.
No, as a matter of fact, the CDN$ touched par last in the fall of 2007. Before that, in the early 1960’s the Canadian dollar bought as many as $1.06 US$.
It was at $1.05 in 1976.
