Money in Canada

I am roughing out plans for a trip from Florida to Alaska in mid 2015. What is the best way to pay your way thought Canada? Are debit cards widely accepted? Should I convert green backs into Canadian dollars or just pay in green backs? Where can you get the best exchange rate?
  • Yes, debit cards and credit cards (visa/mastercard/amex) are generally accepted.
    For cash, do what we do when we come south of the border, shop at Walmart and get cash back for the smaller purchases.
