Yeah, CAD is only 2c off a 52 week high against the Euro. In fact, it is one of the best times since shortly after the launch of the single currency for a Canadian to travel to the eurozone.
Even for the UK, if it takes less than $2 to make a pound, historically you are doing very well.
I've found my last few trips to Canada to be pretty pricey. I used to turn up on Calgary with an empty suitcase. Not anymore.
Apart from to load up on Old Dutch ketchup chips, Coffee Crisp, Turtles and Twizzlers.
