If the Canadian dollar is 29% less than the American dollar, then it's 71% of an American dollar and the American dollar is 1/.71 = 1.41 = 41% more than the Canadian dollar.

The US dollar is worth about 40.8% more than the Canadian dollar.
100/(100-29)-100=40.8

That's:
[US Dollar / C Dollar] x 100 =
[US Dollar / (1-0.29 US Dollar) ] x 100 = 141%

1 CAD = (1 - 0.29) USD = 0.71 USD
1 USD = 1 / 0.71 = 1.4084 CAD
1.4084 or 1.41 - 1 = 0.41 or 41%
Hence, USD is worth 41% more than CAD
