I purchased AC tickets with Aeroplan card on aircanada.com, Bank of America charged me 3% fee on the total purchase amount because the charge came from Manitoba (outside of the USA). Called BofA and they will not take off the fee.

Is there anything I can do to avoid this fee in the future? Can I force the website to charge me from the US?
No.. cos aircanada.com is in Canada.
