Currency Exchange

We're thinking of going to Canada on the near future and I was wondering if the banks still convert Us dollars  to Canadian  Dollars. It's been a few years since we've been up. THX.

All our banks convert US $ to CND. Th exchange is in your favor. Bring your own beer ours is expensive. Enjoy your stay with us.

You should not have any issues.

I have always gone up North with USD most stores have the ability to make change and price adjustments for USD. If you get way up North and will be using mom and pop type stores they are less likely to have USD and will return CAD if they need to. The smaller companies also may not be using the most current exchange rates like the big box or chain stores do.

Also in Ohio, my local bank could convert a limited amount on the spot and more with a few days notice.

If you can I would suggest putting as much as you can on CC, exchange rate is more favourable than cash transactions. But yes, all banks and most stores, lodges etc accept US dollars at a rate of exchange. Banks will have their pound of flesh both ways, US to Cdn and Cdn to US.

Thx every one. We stopped at the duty free store when we were up in 2019 and the exchange was not very good.
