Besides most commercial banks where can I go to exchange foreign currency? Besides most commercial banks where can I go to exchange foreign currency? I traveled to Niagara Falls, Canada in 2005. On the way out of the country I had an impaitent bus driver who would not allow me to stop off at the Duty Free shop to exchange the currency. So I came home with just under $20 in Canadian Currency. I've held onto this money since last year. Every commercial bank I've called require you to be a customer. My credit union doesn't accept foreign currency for deposits. So I feel like I'm stuck with this money I can't use. If I knew someone going to Canada perhaps I could offer to "sell" it to them but in lieu of that I don't what to do with this money.

Why does the value of Canadian currency depend on what the U.S. decide is 'fair market value'?

US dollar currently at 93.5 cents against Canadian currency? While this is a boon to me personally because some of my investments pay in foreign currency and while the drop in the value may actually help place American goods in foreign markets or spur tourism to the US, I think the long term problem will be sliding faith in our ability to repay massive debts. Am I just being a worry-wart here? Is there a bright side I'm not seeing a year or two down the road? I'm astonished that so many are spending time bashing candidates but not questioning what got us to this pass or what to do next.
