Default 100 Canadian Dollar = 65.78521 Euro, yet basically at parity with the USD...

Yet, for the past 6+ months it has basically been at parity with the USD.
This says a lot about the real and perceived strength of the CAD.
The CAD CHF for a fairly long time, probably since the late late 1990s.
The UKP and EUR in Canada and the South Pacific are nearly equal in buying
power.

There is arising a situation where 1 CAD ~= 1 AUD ~= 1 NZD.
Let it be understood that ~= means that there is less than a 7.5%
differential.
Assume the differential (- or +) is a 35 day moving average.

End result:
(Bondi Beach): US tourists are impossible to find.
(Auckland): US tourists are rare.
Poms: pay attention or your feet will get stepped on by one!

Correct, Russians are there.

Negro and French riviera.

Default 100 Canadian Dollar = 65.78521 Euro, yet basically at parity with the USD. AND PETROCURRENCIES

The Russian Ruble aka RUR (sym?) is a petrocurrency.
The CAD is a petrocurrency. (nn)
The UKP is a petrocurrency.
The NZD is a petrocurrency (but NZ produces only 55k bbl/day). (nn)
The AUD is a petrocurrency. (nn)
The EUR is a petrocurrency, as ~2 nations in the zone still produce.

Technically the USD is a petrocurrency.
However, US oil exports more or less ceased after 1970.
I assume US gas exports ceased after 1980.

===========
(nn) : has not exported oil in the last 20 years.
===========

I am not saying that the petrochemical economy dictates absolutely FOREX
flux, but it is very important.

The USD has collapsed because
1. All Government bonds (at any level of government) are "JUNK BONDS"
2. The US prevented a 5 petrocurrency economy from developing in the late
1990s.
3. The US does not manufacture anything anymore.
4. US companies that produce any good or service are soon gutted by CEOs and
their executive compensation packages.
5. The US lifestyle has killed any kind of community, turning all Americans
into selfish evil people (that the Islamic Liberation movements rightly
believe should be killed off).

The USD should be at parity with the PESO or the RUPEE.
The strong US dollar is an historical anachronism, something that was
unsustainable c1982 - c2000.
A strong USD might be feasible by 2045, but delusional FOREX traders may
beat this date decades.

Correct, Russians are there.
From skiing in Colorado, France, Italy, ... to swiming in Dubai, Monte
Negro and French riviera.
