Actually, as of today (October 8, 2012) the Canadian dollar is worth more! The Canadian dollar is worth about $1.02 U.S. 1 U.S. dollar is only worth 98 Canadian cents.
There are many reasons why the relative values of currencies change.
- One reason is speculation by currency market traders.
- Another is interest rates (Although they haven't changed much recently, I find this fairly easy to understand). If interest rates are higher in Canada, then people in the U.S. will want to invest their money in Canada. To do this, they will need Canadian dollars, and since more people will be wanting to buy Canadian dollars, they will become more expensive.
- A similar argument can apply to real estate. If people in the U.S. feel that Canadian real estate is more likely to increase in value than U.S. American real estate, they would want to invest in Canada ... resulting in 'upward pressure' on the Canadian dollar.
Right now! At the time of writing (May 3rd 2012) 1 Canadian dollar is worth 1.01 US dollar.

The Kuwaiti dinar is one of the highest-valued currencies in the world, often trading at a significantly higher rate compared to the Canadian dollar. As of my last knowledge update, the exchange rate typically shows that one Kuwaiti dinar is worth several Canadian dollars. For the most current rates, it’s best to check a reliable financial news source or currency converter.
That's not always true. The value of each depends on the exchange rates between the two countries. Sometimes the Canadian dollar is worth more than the American dollar and sometimes the opposite, depending on economic conditions.

It has to do with exchange rates. Consider the US and Canada. If one US dollar is worth $1.50 Canadian, then US dollars buy 50% more Canadian products than an equal number of Canadian dollars would. But if the value of the Canadian dollar rises, so that it is worth the same as an American dollar, then American dollars buy only the same amount of Canadian products as an equal number of Canadian dollars.
