And..I think i've figured out why.  Its all this British BS we still put up with.  British Bureaucracy, British customs, British ways of doing business, heck even the British Crown. 

The United States is like the rebellious older brother who ran away from home as a teenager and is now living it up as a billioniare after striking it out their own .

Canada is like the younger brother who never moved out of the house, still relies on mommy(Britian) for moral guidence, and continually whines about thier "identity" to a therapist.

Yeah america's great, that's why I'm gonna move down there tomorrow. Idiot.

america a billionaire? 

not at all - its living a billionaire's lifestyle, but is living off debt - it owes china that billion, and eventually they will want it back - and then, economic bankruptcy time

lol america is the worst nation on earth.  Anyone who seriously believes today that america is "great" is living in a cave or has his head in the sand. 

geeze, so typical you idiots dwell on semantics.  America IS the richest nation on earth, no other nation comes close.  And who cares if it has debt.  The greatest corporations, located in America, all finance their growtht hrough debt.  "Billioniare" or not, I believe the analogy is apt.

You can't argue that Canada isn't a homebody here while America is living it up

look who is leading Canada "Steve"

How is america the "richest nation on earth" when they have so many homeless, so many poor people and children, and so much lack of education with such terrible schools?

I'll tell you why, US is NOT the richest nation on earth, it is just the most greedy and violent, but pretends those large corporations actually make people wealthy when in reality what they are doing is robbing from ordinary people (think: ENRON)

Americanadian is one fu*cked up loser

Its called economic empire. The US $ bourse will ensure that the worls still buys US $.
Its simply brilliant unless of course any of those pesky Islamic states push for a Euro bourse.

worls is sort of like world except better

The US has the largest economy in the world asswhipe, we're not counting brownie points in the real world.

what the hell is bourse?

Its like a world by with speed fins

You are right, JJ McCoy.  Once everyone starts trading in euros america will collapse.  The american dollar is just a piece of toilet paper and everyone knows that. 

Euros? sure keep dreaming.  Europe can't even keep it's immigrants in check.  The "new resurgent Europe" is nothing but a pipe dream.

and btw, Iran was in the process of setting up such a euro-based oil trading bourse, they are making initial preparations now by switching their fundamental trading currency into euros and no more dollar

It menas purse but in this case it hase to do with all the oil traded is done so in US dollars. That means you must hold US dollars to buy oil

menas is like means but with attitude

1 euro = 1.335 US dollars.

Americandian is clearly an uneducated idiot who knows nothing

The euro is much more powerful and the american dollar is shit.

Iraq was moving to trading in Euros hence they are no more. Iran is pushing it hence the increased military pressure

You idiot

you're the idiot.  Exchange rates mean nothing. 

1 yen = 0.01 $Canadian, yet Japan's economy is 5X bigger than ours

The Kuwaiti Dinar = 4.32 Canadian.  Doesn't mean Kuwait is the greatest country in the world.

Moron.

americandian is clearly an idiot... exchange rates mean nothing?

exchange rates are not an indicator of economic supremecy.  Anyone who's not a snot-nosed teenager knows this.

You're an moron, idiot.

The US dollar is the world's most widely held and traded currency.  It will take decades for the Euro to reach that level that the US dollar has held for over 50 years.  It is literally the standard to which all other currencies are based ever since the gold standard was abandoned 3 decades ago.  Not to mention that the world's largest economy, the US *surprise surprise* deals exclusively with the US dollar.

first, learn some grammar.  Second, learn some kindergarten-level economics.  What was the euro/dollar exchange rate in 2002, retard?

there's no point arguing with an idiot who knows none of the facts.

wow nitpicking on my grammar? i said an when "a" was needed, so sue me.  Its called a TYPO. You, however, are still an uneducated moron.

I can answer why Canada sucks: Where to start? Low standard of living, racists, pussies everywhere, no military to speak of, poor, unclean,no different climate (i.e. always cold), sucky economy. The list goes on; Without America, canada would collapse, and britain, oh don't even get me started on those poor bastards... Face it canadians, you suck. Your country sucks. You have no right to live. It should merge with the U.S. Which it will sometime. Then you'll have to live with us!!! HAHAHAH stupid canf*ucks!!!

"Americandian" Didn't answer my last question.  Shows you are an uneducated retard who never learned how to count.  Glad you left canada, it's better that our great country purges retards and losers like you

pick up some books on economics and foreign exchange. then come back and talk to me.  Idiot.

Great country? HAHAHAHAH YEAH THE F*UCK RIGHT!!! YOUR COUNTRY IS TERRIBLE!!! THE SOONER YOU GET THAT THROUGH YOUR DUMBASS HEAD, THE BETTER!!!! YOU GUYS HAVE NO PLACE TO TALK ABOUT ANOTHERS COUNTRY WHEN YOURS IS SO SHI*TY!!! GET REAL!!!  *AHEM* As for Americandian, I am with you buddy!! These canadians will obey their pimps (U.S.). BOW DOWN MUTHERF*CKERS!!

What was the euro/dollar exchange rate in 2002?

You actually need to pass kindergarten-level education, because your ignorance and lack of education is really showing.
