Also, can US customers refuse me entry into the country based on this past experience in CDN customs?
The US is unlikely to refuse you entry based on this experience with Canadian customs; but if you want to again answer such questions in such a way as to land yourself into further trouble when attempting to get cleared for entry into a country, then who knows. And if you are in possession of contraband or perceived to be under the influence of contraband, then you're complicating matters for yourself more than necessary. [Of course the illegal use of cocaine is what complicates matters way more than necessary. ]

OP - stop using coke.
Yes -- a significant proportion of currency has some traces of cocaine and other hard drugs on it -- for example, the overwhelming majority of larger denomination euro notes in Spain and Italy have traces of such drugs on them.
