There are not a lot of options other than just holding C$ cash. There is an ETF that represents the C$, symbol FXC in NY. Assets are $61M, fees 0.40%, no leverage. It is down 4.4% in the past year with the C$ falling. Generally, we would view such securities as a 'bet' on a currency, rather than an investment. We would, today, still prefer the US$ overall.

Currency Share Canadian Dollar ETF. Just tracks the value of the US$. Thinks the Cdn$ will rally against the US$ and will probably be above par in the 1st quarter of next year. That would probably be the trigger to sell. (Also has options so you could do covered calls.)
