I don't know about Canada, but Bush has been good for the Flames.
Bush seems content to run huge defecits, racking up massive debt, most of which is owed to foreign sources in US $'s.
With that being the case, it's actually better for the US to pay their debt with a cheaper $US, so they make sure it's devalued.
The lower the $US, the more valuable the $Cdn.
The more valuable the $Cdn, the better the Flames bottom line.
Now if only we were playing hockey and hhad to worry about paying salaries
