You have to complete all T5008 slips in Canadian currency. Use the exchange rate that was in effect at the time of the transaction or an average rate that includes the transaction period.
Therefore, if there is an exchange rate listed in Box 13 of your T5008, you need to use it to calculate the Canadian dollars you need to report.

Thank you for using TurboTax.
Your expert was very professional, patient and helpful. However there seem to be a shortcoming in your program. USD and CAD just listed together, the program should do the conversion as CRA requires all amounts to be presented in CAD.
Thank you for your feedback, we value your opinion and have shared this information with the proper TurboTax team.

It is ridiculous that the user needs to manually convert the USD into CAD and input them one by one. Why don't you set an input rate for all transactions and automatically output the CAD values to the form as the year exchange rate is indicated by the bank of Canada in the 5008?
Thank you for your feedback. We will send your feedback to the appropriate department.
