    The coins are part of history and on them they have symbols of Canada.

    By that logic, the US should not get rid of their penny.

    Its not like if we get rid of a coin history will disappear. Eventually everything has to change. i think we have to remember the past but everything will eventually need to change.

    The penny, nickel, and dime=silly
    Fact: It takes 2 pennies to make 1 penny.
    Yes you are. We should also get rid of gravity. It is just a way for the man to keep us down.

    I'd rather get rid of Alberta because at least Quebec people are sane. I also have an American 1$ coin and I don't see anything celebrating equal rights.

    I am gonna channel Ler.

    YEAAAAAA we should, like, destroy currency so everyone will work for society like in star trek. Capitalism is totally slavery except the workers are given rights and can leave anytime. Nationalizing the industries be great for the world economy.

    Socialism = idiocracy, capitalism = smartest of MENSA.
