I was not aware that denominations above $100 bills were  
between banks only. But sometimes my wallet gets overly packed  
with so many 20s and 50s that I am tempted to go to a bank and  
get it reduced to 500s.

But I found this:

"As of January 1, 2021, the $1, $2, $25, $500 and $1,000 bills  
from every Bank of Canada series are no longer legal tender. "

"Removing legal tender status from these bills means that they  
are no longer considered money. Essentially, you may no longer  
be able to spend them in a cash transaction. This does not mean  
that the notes are worthless. The Bank of Canada will continue  
to honour them at face value."
