They generally simply get spent as US Coins. If the coins are pure nickel or plated steel (like most modern Canadian Coins are) they will get trapped on magnets when ran through a coin sorter and then either exchanged for the equivalent value in US dollars by the bank/sorting company or given to employees/customers who are going to Canada. But the coins that aren't magnetic are simply spent like US coins as they have the same diameter and roughly the same purchasing power.
