I need help calibrating my TV

[BenSkywalker]

2 years ago our dollar was worth more than yours and I could have said the exact same thing about your government.

You would have been right....? Our financial policy was an absolute disaster, it isn't pretty now, in fact it is rather shockingly poor, better than your nations by a sizable margin but to be fair, your nations financial policy is much better than some larger economies- like California's(roughly 10% larger then Canada in both GDP and population).

It's cold where you live, that means your cost of living is going to be higher. Road maintenance is considerably more costly, housing standards are much higher(the level of insulation, strength of the roofs required where we live etc), food costs are going to be higher(shorter growing season, higher transportation costs). If you compare the southern US to the northern the south is considerably cheaper in terms of cost of living.  

Dynamic contrast is evil.

For my TVs, dynamic anything is evil
