Need some feelers from fellow CHC drivers, currently living anywhere but Canada. With the Canadian dollar sinking faster than the Titanic, what have you guys done? Having been with CHC since Jan this is the first time I am really taking a hit ($2000.00) on my last monthly paycheck. I'm sure CHC didn't compensate anyone for the weak dollar. Might need to get a second job while on time off.
Surely exchange rate fluctuations are something you should have taken into account when you considered joining CHC? The exchange rate is now back to where it was about 18 months ago. The rate you saw in January was a 30 year high against the US$, so probably not the benchmark you should be using
