Nobody wants a us bill outside of the us (with some exceptions)

Every place use their local currency. We're talking about exchange rates here.

Are we talking about people or governments here because many countries have to hold USD in order to buy oil.

Also, when you travel: do you bring CAD or exchange for USD first prior due to that having a better exchange rare?

Tell that to OP
