"Canada's economic picture "darkening" ". Now there's a profound bit of observation if I ever heard one

. The U.S. is in meltdown mode, their dollar is liable to collapse in a matter of months with hyperinflation as a consequence. So how in the world a downturn here qualifies as something new, or is a pessimistic tone is beyond me. Canada will be lucky to come out the other end of this with any economy left.
It's not like this is the end of the USA. This has happened before and we will recover.
And it seems to me like our "meltdown" is affecting Canada.
