"Canadian Dollar: $11.17 CAD"

My PayPal account is principally in USD, and that's all I accept from my buyers. There hasn't been any Canadian dollars in there for a long, long time. Today, I was looking at my balances, and the above is what I saw. I checked the recent payments, but can't find any Canadian dollar payments at all. It's very easy to check - just run down the history, there's a demonination column. They all say "USD". So what gives? Where did this money come from? I'm sure I can deal with it (transfer to USD and then back to CND when I withdraw the money?) but the matter remains. Where did it come from?

If you have your PayPal account open at the moment, would you mind checking your balances? Let me know if you have anything other than your normal demonination showing up. I'd like to find out if this is an isolated incident.

Also, any ideas where it might have come from?

Just checked mine Shooger - no Canadian Dollars. That sounds really weird -- at PayPal's exchange rate I sure wouldn't want to be transferring back and forth! That's why I got my account in US$ in the first place ... I list on the .com site in US$, no way I would let PayPal exchange that to C$!
