“And Canada will continue to be a net oil exporter. As oil prices go, so does the loonie.”

True, but leave it to liberals and greenies (I repeat myself) to find a way to kill the golden goose.

Let’s see who he appoints as environmental minister and energy minister.

Also very true. From the looks of things, we'll be less able to buy manufactured products from Canada, as time and our debt decline go on. Sustainable revenues don't grow on trees, and we need to do much more manufacturing on U.S. soil in much more distributed ways soon ("distributed:" many more new, small starts, meaning many zoning laws must go).

As for Canada, if might be well for Canadians to focus more on exporting commodities from Canadian natural resources and products made from those commodities. ...only my foreign opinion, of course. The future looks pretty rough for many of us in the U.S.A. Energy resource net exporters will have the most investments and higher currencies of the near future. And the longer they wait to position for that, the longer they'll be poor.
