Buy Canadian assets: Which assets, if stocks then that is staying
out on the limb though it is a stronger limb, delaying clearing debt.

Safer would be converting to C$ and benefiting from expected USD
decline, then paying off. BUT holding C$ in a Canadian account requires reporting a foreign account on US tax form if over $10k,
with a checkoff of 10k-100k, 100k-1M, over 1M. That might bother some
people to have to report. Same for C stock account.

And the interest rate is lower, so slippage there.

I think couple brokers allow holding C$ in the US stock account,
though my broker Penntrade does not.
