Hi Don
I think I read that recently but do not recall where. This divergence of the economies should continue for the forseeable future. Canada`s economy is resource based whereas the United states is not and there is a worldwide trend to convert from paper assets (i.e. stocks and bonds) to hard assets (something you can touch) such as uranium, gold, oil and real estate. This will keep our economy moving forward and have foreign investors pour money into our currency which is now being called the petroloonie!
