The exchange rate between the Canadian dollar (CAD) and the Australian dollar (AUD) has recently come under pressure, reflecting broader concerns about tariff implications and energy prices. As noted by FX analysts, the CAD is currently trading at 7-day lows near 1.1101, which aligns closely with its 3-month average, having remained within a stable 3.1% range. Recent sentiment toward the CAD has been negatively influenced by the potential for renewed metal tariffs under a Trump administration, alongside a downturn in oil prices, which are critical for Canada as a major oil exporter. With oil prices trading around $74.64, only a slight decline from its 3-month average, any significant shifts in oil markets could further impact the CAD's performance, particularly since it is sensitive to commodities.

There are several ways to save on exchange rates when converting Canadian dollar to Australian dollar:
Generally speaking, if you are buying Australian dollar with Canadian dollar, then it's better for the CAD/AUD exchange rate to be higher.
However working against you are the fees all foreign exchange providers charge for providing their service. These fees is usually contained within the exchange rate margin (or difference to the mid-rate).
The transaction margin you end up being charged can be considerably reduced by around a few percent (of total amount being exchanged) for travel money and possibly over 5% to 6% when sending money. The exact potential savings depends on the currencies being exchanged and the amount you are transferring and if you are willing to shop around.
Our real-time foreign transfer and travel money/cards comparison calculators make shopping around easy and help you calculate how much you can save.
