I am Canadian. And I know that. But we are spending money on making new notes instead of retiring notes.
We should be getting rid of anything less then a loonie. If you want exact change, use your debit card.
We should put the money spent on producing coins and notes towards offering free or reduced interac transactions via government subsidies so the poor don't suffer by us going cashless.
Its a tribute to a Canadian Hero. This whole thing that know one can do anything fun or interesting till we sort out every issue drive me nuts. People will complain about anything.
