I sympathize with those who earn AmEx CA MR and feel that they are being screwed by the conversion rates which are still more unfavorable with the appreciation of your "loonie." As Bill Clinton says, I feel your pain. But rather than hectoring AmEx CA and its partners to readjust those conversion rates now that the loonie has appreciated so much, why don't you get your government to intervene so as to get the loonie back to where it belongs, that is something around $1 CAD = $.70 USD, where the Lord intended for it to be. It was much more fun to visit the Maritimes and your major cities and attractions when the loonie was at those levels, and you would then effectively get more out of your AmEx CA MR too.
