Just so you're forwarned, right now the US dollar is at its lowest point against the Canadian dollar in 30 years - which is basically 1 to 1.

Back in 2005, the US dollar was worth about $1.25 CAN, so you can expect everything in Canada to cost about 20-25% more than it did the last time you were there.

While that 20 cents might not have seemed like a big deal, when you take that along with the charges you'll face for changing money, its really a very expensive time to visit Canada.

Of course, if you live pretty much anywhere else in the world, it also means its a great time to come to the US.
