A lot of times it was to go to watch my Eskimos play football, but that is a different story.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7025747\" data-originallang=\"en\">To be serious about the question, it is important that we understand some of the reasons that the prices are so high right now. We have a country that is rich in resources and the Canadian dollar is at 79\u00a2 right now. These are the kinds of reasons that the prices at the pump are so severe. We have to look at the overall economic impact of what is taking place.</p>",

Notre pays est riche en ressources et le dollar canadien vaut actuellement 79 cents par rapport au dollar am\u00e9ricain.
