That's because your Interac card is also your ATM card. You can withdraw cash from ATMs, you just can't make direct payments ("debit"). Personally, I would just withdraw cash as I need it (since I have a bank account that doesn't have fees for doing so - TD Select Service) or pay with credit. No need for travellers cheques or guessing how much money I'd need.

Any problems with cash withdrawals or credit payments are usually because of anti-fraud measures. If you're worried, call you bank / credit-card provider and let them know you'll be travelling.
