US $ at par

Now the Canadian $ is at par with the Us Dollar, no wonder why there is up to 4 hours line up at the Border?
Is it still a good deal to wait so long to get in Bellingham WA. to save $9.00 on a shirt ???
It is hard as Canadians to have a great value for $ in our Country as you could flight from Bellingham airport to Vegas for less then $100. two way (if you book couple month ahead, $49.00 each way to San Francisco or Los Angeles), for the same Jalsberg Cheese half price at Costco Bellingham??? Organic Butter 1.69 a Pound (for dairy back to Canada only $20.00 per persone max)
Only 4 year ago our $ was at 0.68 as thing change fast. enjoy the new power of a strong Canadian $
