basically, there is little or no need, unless you're driving directly into a metro area and will need coins for parking meters immediately.
I go to Canada often, and other than a jar of change (see above), I just pull cash out from ATMs, or just use plastic.

i am from canada and the only advantage would be that some stores and restaurants do not take american money. other than that i would tell you to buy a little bit of canadian dollars because u can just transfer it back when u go back.

It would be polite to use cdn$. Politeness is valued in Canada. Use an ATM and you'll get good rates.

agree. it's almost even now I think it's 0.96 CND to a dollar. if you exchange them you're looking at around 2-3% less so it's better to just carry your USD coz it's accepted here.
