I went through this with them a year ago.

If you have a US address on file, Aeroplan charges you in USD. I tried to make the case that Aeroplan had to adhere to DOT regulations for tickets sold to someone in the US, but they said they didn't have to obey DOT regulations.

I disagreed with that, and I made that argument, and I ended up with a "goodwill" free cancellation, because I'd never "caused problems" before.
