US$ balance being converted to send to a US$ account

I have a US$ bank account verified in my Paypal accounts.  I have a $4,200USD balance.  When I try to transfer the funds to that bank account, it wants to convert the funds to CA$ (at a horrible exchange rate) instead of just transferring as USD which is what the bank account is!

If I do this, I'll pay high fees for conversion to CA$, and then my bank will charge ANOTHER conversion to take the CA$ and put it back in USD so that it can be deposited in a USD account.

There doesn't seem to be a way to specify what currency the receiving bank account is in, and I do not want to pay ridiculously high conversion fees twice. 

What do I need to do to have the funds transfer staight over as US$?
