Get a charge out of it

Canada is a celebration. Canada is your kind of summer. Come and enjoy the pomp and glory, the Mounties’ Musical Ride of pounding hooves and flying colours. Enjoy the pageantry, the history, the tradition of friendship.

Canada offers you exciting cities and scenery as spectacular as any in the world. And when you get here, you’ll find your dollars go further now because of the favourable exchange rate.

To take full advantage of this currency difference, we suggest you exchange your U.S. funds at any bank in Canada. We get a charge out of having you visit.
