There are also ABM's everywhere, where you you can get money without paying too much 'exchange fees'. There is also a Royal Bank ABM right into the main lobby of the Metro Toronto Convention Centre. If you're staying at the Fairmont Royal York, you'll have at least 3 major banks ABM's in the underground P.A.T.H.....VERY convenient!

Don't worry TOO much about foreign exchange.....when I travel, I don't.
Also, most of the taxis and limousines will accept credit & debit cards .

John,

No kidding!

Folks, you may want to visit a local bank that deals with foreign
currencies or just hit a bank once you hit Toronto...problem is, most of
you will be arriving on Saturday or Sunday and the banks will be closed,
so check with currency exchanges in the airport, provided the handling
fee's aren't too high...

Actually you don't have to convert your cash.  Most Canadians are happy
to accept US dollars on a one for one exchange for Canadian dollars.
