CALGARY — Suncor Energy, Canada's biggest oilsands player, has posted a net loss of $2 billion for the final three months of 2015 as it was walloped by the steep drop in crude prices.

In addition to the oil price collapse, Suncor's bottom line was dragged down by nearly $1.6 billion in impairment charges and a $382 million foreign exchange loss related to its U.S. dollar-denominated debt.

A year earlier, it posted a net profit of $84 million.

Though, you protesting your ignorance...is funny too.

So Pud ... how do you explain that back in 2011 and 2012 the Canadian dollar was worth MORE than the American dollar?

I didn't. I don't care. However, you go 'right' ahead....

It's your thread. You made the contention. Go ahead and explain.
