Canada Exchange Rate

Canada Exchange Rate

Exchange Rate in Canada

The Canadian dollar's exchange rate has depreciated overall in the last decade, but has seen substantial volatility in response to fluctuations in global oil prices (oil is Canada's key merchandise export), interest rates and domestic economic conditions. Depreciation in 2024 was particularly marked, due to fears of U.S. tariffs and the Bank of Canada's more aggressive rate cut cycle compared to the Fed. The exchange rate ended 2022 at CAD 1.35 per USD, compared to the end-2021 value of CAD 1.26 per USD and the figure a decade earlier of CAD 1.06 per USD.
