Canadian dollar hits 47-year high

At 1500 GMT, the American dollar was worth only 95.47 Canadian dollars, while the loonie, a sobriquet given to the Canadian dollar, was being traded for 1.0474 US dollars.

And just four short years ago, $100CAN cost me $72US. No hooker for John during the Triumph Rally in Nelson, BC, next July…
