The key is to make sure your card matches one or more symbols.
I find that "PLUS System" or "Cirrus" are pretty standard. These are usually
on MOST ATM's in Southern Ontario (Greater Toronto Area, etc.)
Some banks are open on Saturday, (but most of the time, you have to be a client,
though depending on the Customer Service Rep., you can usually get
your currency exchanged).
