Huh?

The unemployment rate dropped to a 10-month low of 7.3% from 7.4 % in November.

While the labour market's performance in the home stretch of 2003 was impressive, employment increased by only 271,000, or 1.7%, for the year. Not a bad result but a shadow of the 560,000 jobs posted in 2002.<?b>

In December, the manufacturing sector continued to bear the brunt of the Canadian dollar's appreciation as 4,100 jobs disappeared. For the year as a whole, 57,300 jobs were lost in this sector.

Canada job gains on best pace in 20 years with no tax cuts.

Texas and Florida has no state income tax and California has second highest income tax (9.3%). But California almost broke, and was run by democrat of governor and legislatures. Maybe tax is not such a simple answer. US owns nearly 50% of world's wealth, Canada and the whole world certainly will benefit if US has strong economy.
