I am in Canada too, and I know what you are saying, but as I said, it's not the same game for the Americans. The US operates the global reserve currency. When you run the global reserve currency, you can't just decide to have a "weak dollar policy." You'll just end up destroying confidence, and ultimately end up no longer running the global reserve currency.

Yes, the smart money is already positioned in, or is now in flight to precious metals and commodities for just that reason.
