949.0. "RECENT CANADIAN CURRENCY EXCHANGE INFO NEEDED" by XCUSME::PHINNEY () Mon Jul 17 1995 14:19

    The most recent note on Canadian currency is at least 5 years old so I
    wanted to enter a new one.
    
    I'm flying into Calgary Int'l Airport mid-August for a week long bike
    trip starting in Banff.  Would I get the most favorable rates right at
    the airport (either Calgary or Logan?) or at some U.S. bank before I
    leave.  I know there's also the option of a Canadian bank but I'd
    rather not leave it to that.
    
    Any info would be greatly appreciated.
    
    Thanks,
    Martha Phinney

    Better off at a bank. Actually, use your ATM card in Canada, you'll
    get a better rate than the airport bandits will give you.
