* Canadian dollar strengthens 0.3% against the greenback * Touches its strongest since May 5 at 1.2729 * Price of U.S. oil falls 0.6% * Canadian bond yields trade mixed across curve By Fergal Smith TORONTO, May 27 (Reuters) - The Canadian dollar rose to its highest level in more than three weeks against its U.S. counterpart on Friday and was headed for its second straight weekly gain as recent volatility in global financial markets continued to subside. The loonie was trading 0.3% higher at 1.2730 to the greenback, or 78.55 U.S. cents, after touching its strongest since May 5 at 1.2729. The price of oil, one of Canada's major exports, edged lower but was also on track for a weekly gain, supported by the prospect of a tight market due to rising gasoline consumption in the United States and also the possibility of a European Union ban on Russian oil.

The Canadian dollar strengthened against its U.S. counterpart on Thursday as a jump in oil prices and improvement in risk appetite offset domestic data showing that retail sales growth stalled in March. The loonie was up 0.3% at 1.2775 to the greenback, or 78.28 U.S. cents, moving toward the stronger end of its range over the last week or so, which has been between 1.2762 and 1.2895. "Higher oil prices are helping lift the loonie today," said Erik Nelson, a currency strategist at Wells Fargo in New York.
