Has anyone seen the latest exchange rates for Canadian versus CUC or Euro?

I hear you Heather....lol.......I am feeling the burn now that's for sure !!

Good for you guys, the trick is too buy why the rate is high, even if you are not travelling for a while. I stashed some $'s away last time the £ was high, but I am hoping the £ grows in strength again after the election (zzzzzzz).

But has anyone seen what the price of oil is doing?  The last time our dollar went over parity with the US, gas was $1.25/litre.  You might want to hold onto your exchange savings to fill your tank this summer (or pay the fuel surcharges on flights which I'm sure will eventually kick in as the oil price rises).

Petrol is sky high at the moment, to fill my small VW Golf with 50 litres of diesel yesterday, I paid £65.52 (about $105)....fuel here is £1.26 a litre, ($2.02)......not funny !!

Gas prices here in Ottawa are at about 96 cents a litre, whereas in Montreal they are bout $1.06 a litre.

You guys will get an absolute bargain on the Euro as it's been getting an absolute battering since the downgrading of  Greece's debt rating to 'junk' status.......the Euro is down on a one year low against the dollar.
