Posting a link to this story is complete bollocks. It is NOT relevant. The OP would be carrying C$2000 in cash. That is not a large amount of cash. Some people carry that much for their vacation. Many countries tell you to declare the equivalent of US$10,000 and it is perfectly legal to do so. I have carried US$25,000+ on more than one occasion to the Middle East for business and had no trouble what so ever.
