You may have heard of commodity currencies; these are currencies where the country is exporting a commodity. Like for instance Australia with gold and Canada with crude oil and that means that country's currency is effected by the price of the commodity.

How Oil Moves with USD/CAD

Canada exports 3 million barrels of oil and other petroleum products to the USA per day. That is going to effect the USD/CAD cross in particular the Canadian Dollar.
If Canada has a fixed costs for producing a barrel of oil; if this cost is $5. If crude oil is trading at $50, they're making $45 per barrel. Now let's say that the next year the price of crude oil doubles to $100. The price of production stays the same but Canada is now making a lot more per barrel of crude oil in profits.
More money flows into Canada's economy and that will increase the value of the Canadian dollar.
Oil has had a negative correlation with USD/CAD over the years 2000 to 2016.
