The essay topic I have selected is Impact and implications of US-Canadian dollar exchange rates. I would like to investigate the relationship of the exchange rate between the two countries.
The two articles I will start with are:
1-https://www.bankofcanada.ca/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/exchange.pdf
2-https://www.macleans.ca/economy/is-the-american-economy-strong-enough-to-pull-canada-too/
These two articles both discuss the correlation of US-Canada exchange rate, but from different points of view. The first article proposes a detailed explanation on affiliation between the two countries geographically and why it is impacting. The second article concentrates on how powerful is the US economy and can Canada depend on the US.
My focus in the essay will be on the particular used.
.
A possible outline for my essay is the following (sections and section headings subject to change):
- Introduction
- Summary of Kuszczak's article
- Summary of Katherine Dunn's article
- Explanation on how the effectives between the two countries exchange and how the geographic relationship is important also can they depend on each other.
Data Kuszczak's article has a large table of data, and one or two graphical displays might have been very helpful. If I can, I will try to plot some of this data so that the arguments are made stand out visually.
