How long before the falling Canadian Dollar pushes up the cost of Milsurp guns & ammo


2014-01-29

1,000.00 USD = 1,115.29 CAD
US Dollar ↔ Canadian Dollar
1 USD = 1.11529 CAD <<<<<<<>>>>>>> 1 CAD = 0.896627 USD
 
My accountant told me that the dollar could see the high 70 before the end of the year, but the Gvt really dont want to stop the fall, interest would have to be raised to stop the lowering of the loonie... JP.
 
The lower value of the Canadian dollar will expand our export growth into the U.S. , but it will lower our purchasing power as consumers....

I'm not really up on in depth international commerce either but I have a few thoughts.
Not everything comes from the US. A lot of it is brought to the continent by mars that and north Sylvia and others.
So some stuff should stay on par. Buying in the US or US manufactured items will go up.
For example; svt40, dirt cheap here as they can't go into the US. Certain rules and loopholes will allow us to keep a minor edge I think.

As Jeremy said, this will hurt collectors. I have already stopped actively looking in the US.
$2000 rifle comes to over $2200 with exchange and fees. Plus $500ish import.
I personally think the us is still in massive trouble, they cannot continue they way they are, it's a house of cards.

US dollars are what international trade is done in ... So Canadian importers will be paying in US funds .. we still get the horns ..
 
On the other hand, we plan to lower our prices on Canadian made products, for the 2nd year in a row, with export sales up and a strong US $, along with a few new US retailers, its all win win for our Canadian customers.
We have been waiting for this for the last 5+year
