Yes, and guess which side of the border is more popular with the tourists 
because of that "tourist friendly" attitude? 

(Oh yeah - it could also be that the Canadian side has the best view of 
the falls).  :-)

Many, many moons ago I noticed just how provincial we Americans are. 
I was visiting the Niagra Falls area.

On the Canadian side of the border everyone was eager and willing to 
take US dollars.  In tourist traps, cash registers had 2 sets of 
drawers-- one for Canadian and one for US; the totals came up in both 
US and Canadian dollars.

On the US side of the border, there were signs in a lot of stores 
that said "US Currency ONLY!!!"

And I don't think it was just because of the exchange rate!
