Wages and hydro costs will have declined but who will take advantage. For Hamilton Dofasco definitely becomes more competitive. US Steel's Hamilton operations also becomes more competitive but probably not enough to restart the blast furnace.

Canadian Dollar Hits 94,86 US

One issue though is that a lot of the Ontario manufacturing base has disappeared in recent years, so are there even many manufacturers around to take advantage.
