www.google.ca takes the time to commemorate the Canadian penny as it officially heads into retirement starting today.
There’s still about 6 million in circulation so there’s no way of knowing how long until they are phased out completely, but the government estimates scrapping the coin will save them about 11 million dollars a year.
Congratulations, Canada, for acting rationally.
You are not just America’s hat. In this way and many others, you are America’s wise and resource-rich uncle whom just as a reminder we could conquer at any time.
uh-huh. yeah. because that went so well for you before. You really wanna rebuild that damn thing a third time? Be out fucking guest. ;P
Thank you.
I would rant about the proper teaching of historical events, or specifically the lack thereof in my local education system, but a simple ‘thank you’ might suffice to say everything on my mind.
I realize the casual nature of the posts, no need to point it out. Merely a moment of reflection on my part; pay me no mind and carry on.
