1 US Dollar = 1.02907 Canadian Dollar

1 Canadian Dollar (CAD) = 0.97175 US Dollar (USD)

This means:
You buy 1 US Dollar : 1.02907 Canadian Dollar
You sell 1 US Dollar : 1.02865 Canadian Dollar
You buy 1 Canadian Dollar : 0.97175 US Dollar
You sell 1 Canadian Dollar : 0.97215 US Dollar

Median price = 1.02865 / 1.02907 (bid/ask)
Minimum price = 1.02388 / 1.02413
Maximum price = 1.03118 / 1.03170
