We just got back from a trip to the NW Territories, staying mostly at provincial parks. The ones on the south end advised payment in US $ was acceptable (same dollar amount, so they're winning on the exchange). Parks north didn't advise either way. We used AAA to get cash before we left. Exchange rate wasn't bad, and it was super nice to have the cash before departure. The next best deal that I'm aware of is to use a sister bank/credit union to exchange after you get to Canada, or use an ATM for a fee (aka get all the cash you need at once rather than multiple transactions). Happy travels!
