Today it is 1.18 to the dollar. Been rising every day.

It is the opposite, how low will the dollar go. Deliberate weak dollar policy to make our exports look cheaper.
When it gets to euro =$1.60 we will be back to 2010.

The Euro is not rising. The dollar is tanking.

Since I spend very little time on the French side these days, it won't make much difference for me. It will make my french wines a tad more expensive (when shopping at Super U).

Hahaha! Welcome to the world of Canadian travellers, lol! We are so used to pay an extra 40% on exchange that we don’t even pay attention on a 3-5% swings anymore, lol! The only euro restaurants we visit is Tropicana…

It is a good time to be in the export business! A more expensive time to have overseas labor or be dependent upon imports. I would guess then a good time to have a business on the Dutch side, not so much on the French side.
I pimp DK Gems, The Palms, Lal's, La Chingona, Dany's at Cupecoy and Friars Bay Beach Club !

This is true.
The euro against sterling, which is how I judge it, is barely changed in the last couple of years apart from usual currency fluctuations.
However sterling like the euro has advanced on the dollar on recent weeks.
This will come in handy for beer vouchers on our trip to Chicago at the end of the month to watch Manchester United play...

For those that enjoy BMWs and Mercedes, you should have bought months ago or Buy American which I think is the goal.
