But, does a weak CAD affect international travel towards Canadian travelers? Since they’ll be paying more whilst abroad requiring CAD in higher amounts to exchange for larger sums of cash (like if 1000€ = C$1617 that alone is a steep hike while C$1000 = 618€ see the difference?). Also, when you travel: do you bring CAD or exchange for USD first prior due to that having a better exchange rare?",
