You can use your credit cards. Your credit card company will automatically due the currency conversion for you but beware they sometimes add an extra charge to do that for you.

Canadians will take your credit cards (in most cases) and will probably take your debit card as well, if it’s from a major US bank like JP Morgan Chase or Bank of America.
They do not take “checks” for two reasons: in Canada, it’s spelled “cheques”, and because they will not honor something drawn on a non-Canadian account.
If you need to have access to cash (without carrying wads with you), consider obtaining some traveler’s cheques before you leave. They should be readily available from your local bank. Traveler’s cheques would be honored by all Canadian banks, and most stores/hotels.
