Currency Exchange: Visitors are urged to exchange their funds for Canadian dollars at a bank or foreign exchange outlet where they will receive the prevailing rate of exchange. There is a QuickEX automated currency exchange service in the Downtown Vancouver TouristInfo Centre available 24 hours a day, 7 days per week. US funds are commonly accepted in Vancouver, but the exchange rate isn’t always favourable.
