Last time we went I feel like it was a bit better. Many places take credit now. However, none of my TD cards worked when I was there which was a nightmare. Same with debit... nothing worked at any ATM and TD theorized their POS systems are newer and wouldn't communicate with our cards apparently created by luddites.
So if you do run into issues with taking out cash, they have older ATM's in some post offices which do work.
