I'm with you. I have had some $US sitting around for a couple of years and have lost money ever since the $CDN has climbed to par. I have 165K Aeroplan points (140K collected in the past 5 months) that I won't be able to use for a while, however once I get the chance I'll use them. Star Alliance and AC redemptions are due for a hike.
