Russia’s plan to invest in the Canadian dollar is for me a dream come true! Russia and Canada have lot in common. Canada has vast natural resources, good economic, technological and educational infrastructure. It also has stable and well run banking system. This is win win for Russia and Canada! The next move is to link Canadian businesses, including tourism between Russi Pacific/Canada. I can see how Vancouver can become a new gateway to Pacific Russia and China! Anybody who has traveled Canada and Russia can appreciate that these two countries can become important economic and cultural partners!
