A lot of banks don't even do foreign currency exchange anymore, so you're better off just getting money out of the ATM when you get there. It's just easier and there's a lot less hassle. Check and see if there are any banks that will allow you to withdraw fee-free while you are in Canada. With my bank, I can withdraw from the Royal Bank of Canada for free.
