Yes you may be right but here in Canada this will be a major impact. We shall see.
Maybe some research on the other parties policies may give you some insight ie: New Democrat party will have a hayday giving away the farm and will like the Loonie to drop so they can then say see look we have created more jobs BUT .......this is all about power or the lack of it.
Canada like any other country can not afford to have instability in these times. So did it make the Dow drop........ Maybe.

Its time we modify our parliament.
Cooper said the situation has already caused the Canadian dollar to fall more sharply than it would have before the crisis erupted, noting the loonie dropped further after televised national addresses on Wednesday evening by Harper and Liberal leader Stéphane Dion.
