Canada is no longer the land of the Great Cheap Vacation for Americans. "Due to the increase of the value of the Canadian dollar, Canadians are traveling south and Americans are staying home," says Michelle Colligan, of Montreal's Loews Hotel Vogue. "Montreal's average daily room rates have dropped 10 percent in Canadian dollars since 2000, but increased 20 percent in U.S. dollars. This has not boded well for hotels like ours." But, adds Colligan, the health care is still a bargain.
