Canadian Dollar Rises Above The U.S. Dollar

Today at lunch I had to run to the bank to deposit a cheque. The Bank of America ATM is prejudiced -- every time I try and feed it a cheque written on a CDN bank account it spits it back on me. So today, I finally went in to the local branch (does anyone do that anymore?) to make a deposit.

Imagine my surprise when the total deposit was 58 cents more than the face value of the cheque. How cool is that?!?
