If you can't, then again, don't worry about it. I'm not. When I got in this biz and started depositing cheques, the US dollar was worth $1.46 Cdn, so anything above that was "gravy" to me, and we all know the exchange rate went wayyy up over the past few years. I once transfered $2500 bucks over when it was at a whopping $1.62 Cdn. That was...insane.
Like I say, up and down, So if you need to move some US over to your Cdn, move only what you need and leave the rest in your US account.... and wait.

the fundamentals of the US economy isn't very good in regards to what affects the dollar. US$ is expected to lower relative to the canadian dollar. i wouldn't bother holding US$'s right now.
