Living in Luxembourg (i.e, no more than 20 minutes from France, Germany or Belgium - it’s a small place), the advantages of the euro are obvious.There are some complaints at a political level about it (the Lega Nord being the worst example), and a considerable amount of perceived inflation in Germany, Italy and the Netherlands in particular, but frankly, it’s damn handy. But with regard to Canada and the U.S. getting a common currency, I think there is a difference between 11 countries pooling their resources ans a single country cosying up to a country 10 times its size. There is no balance of power there.
