Just FYI 1:1 exchange rate is a 25% discount.

Having spent some time in YT, I've found Canadians to be extremely agreeable. If you opened your wallet in a shop in Dawson City and said "Drat, I only have USD. Can you work with me?" I can pretty much guarantee they'll take your money - perhaps at a small discount to compensate them for the trouble.

I've traveled pretty far and wide. You really have to look hard (or piss someone off) before they'll reject USD. It spends easily.
