You should attach a bank statement or copy of deposit receipts to prove that you have sufficient funds as stated by you. It can be in your national currency equal to CAD. If you don't have any proof, you can explain your situation to the interviewing officer of the visa section that your son has already  made an invitation and he will shoulder all the expenses for your living in Canada during your visit.
