you can bring cash if you like. i think permissible is $10,000. you can carry that in your hand baggage. check with customs in your country.

I am planning to move to Canada in December. I wish to carry a few thousand dollar in cash, a demand draft of few thousand dollar for opening a bank account and a 100 gm gold bar (24 K). What is the legal procedure of carrying these things? Is gold bar exempted from tax?
Pls, reply at as soon as possible.

Yes, you can carry cash and dd. As for gold, you can add that in your B4 and show it to the border officer for tax exemption.
