Normal stock vs CAD hedged version


This is a dumb question with a quick answer. I’m very new to investing.

What’s the difference with normal USD$ stocks and CAD$ hedged stocks (NFXL and NFLX CDRfor example) I see the CAD$ hedged is a fraction of the price, follows the exact same pattern and charts, and in traded CAD$ but is there downsides to it? Or anything I should know before investing my money into it?

Only reasoning to picking it is to save on CAD-USD commissions
