Hi Prmalr
1)You can carry the 2000 CAD your bank is willing to issue,

2)then you can either carry the rest in bank drafts if your bank has a corresponding bank in Canada ,

3)or travellers cheques .

4) In the worst case scenario ,you could carry the CAD 2000 and open a bank account in Canada,then return to your country to send the funds by transfer from your account in your country to your account in Canada. That can be done for any bank with a SWIFT code. you don't have to show the funds in cash when you land ,bank statements suffice.
