Meh, i kinda just wish the US and Canada would form an Amero or whatever it'd be called. A more equal exchange rate benefits me because I never remember to get canadian money when i visit ontario or quebec.
Everyone seems to accept american money anyway and most of them seem to give me back change in candian somewhere near the exchange rate but i never really know what the exchange rate is to argue anyway, hence why i'd perfer a universal currency.
The only advantage really is that if you give a homeless guy American money the guy sometimes gives you advice about the city and such. That was really my biggest surprise my second trip to Quebec, the amount of homeless people, seemed like there was a homeless person on every block guess it has to do with the population, i mean i'm used to the homeless but to see that many was a bit of a shock. I'm used to seeing more like 3-4 homeless guys a month and even then it's like the same 4 guys.
Hah and then some kid in purple hair hanging out with a bunch of other punkesque guys tried to beg for some money with some hand mime trick. Yeah there's like a homeless guy on every street corner and i'm going to give some money to the guy with enough money to dye his hair purple. All the money i don't need for boarding and eating are going to be going to the people who actually need money.
