Apples are the same price. 0.80 Canadian Cents are 0.60 US Cents. And if you account for the exchange rate, the bacon would be even cheaper in Canada.
3.47 USD for a pound bacon comes out to 1.02 CAD per 100g, which is more expensive compared to the Canadian product.
Ain't you just a greasy used car salesman.
0.79cdn is 0.59usd
$3.47cdn is $2.59usd
Edit: it's actually $4.22cdn for 454g of bacon which converts to $3.14usd
In both cases the exchange rate doesn't give you enough to by the American version
Your bullshit spin isn't going to work.
Yeah, and that would make the Canadian Apple at Walmart cheaper. If you pay 0.79 CAD for an apple in Canada, you would spend less money than an American that pays 0.60 USD for an apple at Walmart.
Same goes for the bacon. You would pay 3.47 CAD for 375 g of bacon at a Canadian Walmart. 375 g are 0.82 lbs and 3.47 CAD are 2.59 USD. That comes out at 3.16 USD for the whole pound. You as a Canadian would pay almost 30 cents less for a pound of bacon.
Someone else try an explain to this idiot where their math is flawed.
Dude. If an American pays 0.60 USD for an apple that means he would pay 0.80 CAD for an apple.
So now explain me how 0.80 CAD is less than 0.79 CAD, which is what a Canadian would pay for an apple.
I'll try once more.
Say I'm American and have to pay 60cents per apple. I also have $100 USD.
Say you're Canadian and have to pay 79cents per apple. You also have $100CDN.
I will now go buy 166 apples.
You will now go buy 126 apples.
I have 40 more apples but you paid less money. You paid $74.69USD sure but what good that do you .. you're in Canada and actually paid $100
Take your $100CDN now come to America with that $74.69USD.
Now go buy some apples.. wait now you only have 124 apples....
I'm going to do the same now and go to Canada. I now have $133.69 to buy apples with and I get 169 apples.
Does that mean apples are cheaper in Canada cause I got 3 extra apples for my money? Well no... But I can see where you got mixed up.
The American dollar has more buying power. That's the key to all of this.
So I ask you who's paying more money at the end of the day. The American buying 166 apples for $100 or the Canadian buying 126 apples for $100
The point is the prices are the same for the goods. The point you're trying unsuccessfully to make is that Americans are paid the same dollar for dollar as Canadians which would make them better off. I'm guessing there's some truth to that, but we need to look at the research. What you're saying makes no sense. What if you were comparing $100 Canadian dollars to 100 rubbles?
Oh look here another fucking idiot....
No wonder so many Canadians are crying for UBI. Bunch of financially illiterate fucktards.
Decided to compare as similar products as possible with the exception of the eggs cause that couldn't be ignored.
Feel free to verify these prices for yourselves.
There's many more examples.
