I've found a handy way to get Canadian $$ when I travel from Oregon
into British Columbia.  (The same thing would work for Canadians
coming to the U.S., I guess.)

My bank, and a lot of others in the northwestern US, belong to an
automatic-teller network called The Exchange.  There are Exchange
machines in BC -- especially near Victoria and Vancouver --
so, when I get to BC, I stop by one, put in my card, and get
Canadian money as easily as I would get American in the U.S...

Does anyone know of other ATM networks that have the same advantages --
especially in countries besides Canada?  (...not including American
Express, MasterCard, Visa, etc.)
