I may look at it only compare to the USD, which might conclude to wrong conclusion. However, I have a strong feeling that our dollar will keep going up because of our resources. At one point or another, I guess it will reflect also on other currencies. WC,

Congratulations on you recent traffic boom. 2. I disagree with your comments about the reasons for the increase of the CAD. It is true that our economy is going great, and resources are in demand. However, if you compare the FOREX rates we have not really been increasing that much. Rather it is the USD tanking (for many of the reasons you mention) that is the reason for the CAD valuation. Look at some charts for the USD/CAD, USD/EUR, and EUR/CAD. You will see that the CAD has not moved (much) in the past few months relative to the Euro. Whereas both the Euro and the CAD are both taking great strides against the Greenback. 1. Congratulations on you recent traffic boom.

In regards to the review, you could be surprised by how many people pay even more than that for a review. However, most of them have something to sell on their site which makes things more profitable ;-) Hey Mike,

The "review" of your blog was interesting, but I can't believe he normally charges $25? I wonder if anyone has ever paid that much for a review. Mike I like the new format.
