  • People who say "a monarch should not be on Canada's coins!" probably don't realize Charles is the King of Canada.

  • Canada is mostly cashless so these coins will remain a collection piece where the value of that coin will remain stagnant.

    • Not true. When the dollar crashes as it will soon these and all silver and gold coins will be used as cash with a value far beyond their face value. Those without will struggle to buy food and necessities as systems change. Those holding paper contracts for gold and silver will find themselves without their product and there will be a massive uprising.

The monarch has a net worth $28 billion and enjoy the finer things in life with no concern for the citizens who struggle to make ends meet. The British monarch should be disolved and the proceeds given to support citizens in need.

  • It’s a damned shame that the vast majority of Canadian youth have no idea who the faces on their money are. Is it really a good idea to ‘carry tradition’ and have a controversial monarch from another continent on every coin instead of people who have done any actual good for our nation?
