You've got it backwards. Best rate is in Thailand, by far.
Bring Canadian dollars. Change them here, in Thailand. Make sure your bills are the new style, not ripped or dirty.
Before you leave change you Baht back.
If you bring travellers checks. Do Not bring 20's or 50's, stick to $100 and $500 notes.
Don't waste your time with the Yankee buck either.
