Hi all,
I am about to make a short landing in 2 weeks time at toronto pearson airport me ,my wife and our infant ,we will stay till we recieve our PR cards then return back home ,have the fellowing questions,

1- i wanted to issue a bank draft to show it to the IO as POF but i didnt want to encash it in canada but return with it to UAE and encash from the same bank, but the teller informed me if i do so i will loose alot of money in the exchange,so he advised to take traveller cheque from tomas cook in US dollars. Is that correct.

2- my wife is pregnant at her first month now,does passing through the metal detectors at the airport have risk on pregnancy or not,if so,shall i get a medical report from local hospital and authenticated from canadian embassy or i have to go to a canadain approved medical center in UAE.

1) If the base currency of the bank draft is Cad, can't it be encash in UAE in the same currency? This way, you won't lose/gain money in exchange rate.

2) Every year, many pregnant women use these metal detectors at various airports for traveling. These device should be safe.
