I know that it’s literally right next door: but does a stronger USD help against a weaker CAD? The thing is, how similar are both nations in terms of culture? For example, I’ve heard a lot of Aussies visit New Zealand as it’s not far. So is it basically the same thing with Americans going to Canada for vacation?

    Southern Canada

    You keep saying that.

    You know that 90% of the population lives within 100km of the border, right?

      I’ve done a bunch of work with folks in Nunavut before, and I find it’s a useful distinction given that very fact. Life’s pretty different up north and it’s a term they use to talk about the rest of us.

      (Will say I don’t know if it gets as much play in NWT or Yukon).

      Edit: According to StatsCan, the line’s further down than I thought it’d be, but honestly it still makes sense. Source: map from this release.
