I don't know if your faith in the Canadian consumer is warranted. There was just a radio piece I heard the other day on NPR about how Canadian tourism is already on the uptick in the United States. I think maybe the average Canadian doesn't have the wherewithal you would like them to.

I think they said cross border trips. That could also be business trips, though I think there are many deals that people find enticing. I just can't handle how weird the vibe is there, completely unenjoyable. I used to extent nearly every trip few a few days or stay the weekend, but now I can't get in and out fast enough.

I think that the average Canadian has the wherewithal to proceed accordingly but those Canadians at each end of the bell curve? Maybe not.
