We have pretty money & we no longer use pennies.
The loonie & the toonie have replaced our $1 & $2 dollar bills.
Yes, we call them loonies & toonies - funny eh?
Picture
Our new Canadian notes are made of polymer - they are highly secure, see through, durable & some say they smell like maple syrup :)
Picture
On February 4 2013 the Canadian mint ceased the distribution of pennies
Picture
We are friendly, we are world peacekeepers, 
we are understanding and accepting.
Picture
We need to show our patriotism more, we need to brag more, 
wave our flag more, shout more and stand our ground more.
Picture
I could go on and on about this fantastic country I live in, the beauty, the people and the freedom - I'm lucky and I am a proud Canadian!
Picture
Happy Birthday Canada!!!!! xoxo
