Canadian vs. Foreign Currencies

In order to avoid potential problems associated with the conversion of money, the fluctuating exchange rates and in particular with banking restrictions placed on the trading in US dollars by the USA and by other foreign countries, all requests for travel advances in US dollars and other foreign currencies will be converted to Canadian funds. In the rare and extreme occasion where the US dollar is the only accepted currency, US dollars will be provided to the employee.
