If your dollar worries you, you increase the money supply.

Crank up the presses enough, and churn out enough Canadian loonies and
you soon have a weaker, more competitive dollar.

That's the same old school approach. No need to get any fancier than
that.

It has happened because Canada's monetary policies have not kept pace
with the other major world nations, including the USA. Too
conservative. What Canada needs to do is to loosen its money supply
consistent with the other nations, to fall into place among them, not
to stand out like a sore conservative thumb.

Cheers.
