TORONTO, CANADIAN MONEY


2011 Winter
  There are six kinds of coins in Canada. On a first line, there are 1cent, 10cents, 2dollars. And, on a second line, there are 5cents, 25cents and one dollar. And as you see, Its cost are not relative with its scale, so it was so confused to figure out instantly. 

  Interestingly, each coins have their own names. 1cent is "PENNY", 5cents is "NICKEL", 10cents is "DIME", 25cents is "QUARTER", one dollar is "LOONIE" and 2 dollars is "TOONIE".


  And I heard that there is 50cents coin. But I had never seen this for a year. So.. just pass it.

And there are 10, 20, 50, 100 dollars paper money. They don't have name. A thing which have to be careful is that some store don't allow you to use 50 or 100 dollars. So, I have to retain some 10 or 20 dollars in my pocket.^^
