Well this was certainly a surprise

I was looking at a school in Canada and converted the cost of tuition from Canadian Dollars to US Dollars. In Canadian Dollars the cost was $5900 CAD per semester. In US Dollars it translates to $5902 USD. The Canadian Dollar has risen in value above the US dollar. I've never heard of that happening before.

oh. since Europe's economy has now taken such a fantastic shit, the price of the Canadian dollar will probably drop dramatically now too, since their economy is so heavily tied in with Europe's.
