If you're using the Yahoo quote source you can probably just change the
stock symbols from XXX to XXX.TO.  This actually has nothing to do with
Gnucash (gnucash just passes the stock symbols to the quote source
unchanged) but is Yahoo Finance's way of determining which stock
exchange to use for quote retrieval.  If that doesn't work you'll need
to use the yahoo finance pages to determine the correct stock symbol.

Thanks David, I'll head over to yahoo finance
