So Canadian dollar is worth more then American. Yet prices of certain things differ vastly, such as a car, which would explain the $2B Lawsuit or whatever against the Americans. I would like to see things get cheaper up here.

So what the purpose of this thread is to compare the prices of certain things seeing as what I just said above. Like say a bag of chips, chocolate bars, some food, w/e you can come up with.

The reason why most American goods have the added price for Canada is the ridiculous export tax. It has nothing to do with currency rate.
