halisray Posted October 14, 2010 Share Posted October 14, 2010 Looking into purchasing a subscription, noticed that $20USD turns into $27CAD - curious as to why that is seeing as how: 1 U.S. dollar = 1.00699965 Canadian dollars 20 U.S. dollars = 20.1399931 Canadian dollars Curious! ps: do you just not like Canadians? :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Root5 Posted October 14, 2010 Share Posted October 14, 2010 It's to pay for all the mandatory Canadian content that we're forced to view alongside watmm, so that our culture doesn't dissolve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
delet... Posted October 15, 2010 Share Posted October 15, 2010 It's probably based on an old conversion rate. The way the US dollar has been sinking you have a reasonable argument there i think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

delet... Posted October 15, 2010 Share Posted October 15, 2010 Yeah, we get ripped for everything. Like computer games, omG. The irony is that over the past 10 years they've had us sign all these free trade agreements with countries around the world from the US to Japan, but then the only people allowed to benefit are the wholesalers/retailers of goods.
