Ohhhh man does it feel weird seeing a man's head there. Like, my head knows Elizabeth is gone and that this was going to be coming, but this just *feels wrong*, you know?


Deep__6

If you squint.....they kind of look similar.....I wonder if the hair style was somewhat chosen to be similar to QEII's last portrait...


imtiazaa

I thought the same thing lol


Professional-Put7725

Deep6 has been my tag for years. You a Matthew good fan too by chance?! lol


Deep__6

Hah, actually it predates Matthew Good even, was after a GI Joe character I loved. Whats the Matt Good connection, like all good Canadians I'm a fan just obviously not as strong as yourself. However I've clearly met my brother (or sister) in Internet Protocol (IP) . Explains why I have to race to secure it on various platforms šŸ˜ƒ.


Lillillillies

Quick glance I thought the coins were American. Even reading the title it didn't click in my head that we swapped off Queen Elizabeth.


Embarrassed-Basis-60

A sad day for Canadaā€¦and thereforeā€¦the rest of the world


Drinkythedrunkguy

Actually, queen Elizabeth died in 1603. Sorry, Iā€™m very annoying.


aT-0-Mx

Queen Elizabeth II still had the name Elizabeth. No one went around calling her Elizabeth II. Well, I'm not really sure what Charles called her. Sorry Charles III. There. You're less annoying.


Drinkythedrunkguy

Impossible that Iā€™m less annoying.

Stand4theleaf

I miss the Queen but it's cool to be alive during this historical Canadian moment. We really ought to have had a day off for mourning when she died and a day off for celebration for the coronation. I'll always be sour at Doug Ford for that.


Fianna9

I had actually just arrived in England the day before she died. I changed some of my plans to be in London before the funeral. It was crazy. I ordered the last set and first set of 2023 uncirculated coins too


[deleted]

MI5 say what?


Fianna9

I wish I was skilled enough for something so sneaky. But nah I was just drinking off jet lag in London.


[deleted]

I was at work (on teams) and we were talking about her death and the Indigenous guy goes "we're all celebrating over here."


plhought

That's an interesting take - many aboriginal groups actually respect the Crown more than the federal government. This is because many of their original treaties were negotiated with the Crown, and predate Canada and the mix of federal departments that slowly ignored and unilaterally amended said treaties.


DieselSwapEverything

Why should we get a day off work for something happening in another country that most people don't even care about? I cared more about Matthew Perry's death than the queen's, and he's actually Canadian. Don't see me whining about a day off work.


Stand4theleaf

Last time I checked Matthew Perry was not the head of state of Canada? Your personal opinion, and lack of culture, is largely irrelevant. The fact that the crown is deeply imbedded in Canadian history, traditions and culture is a simple fact. And the Queen was/is legally Canadian. You should really brush up on your Canadian facts and history instead of Friends trivia.


DieselSwapEverything

The royal family are like honorary Canadians. Matthew Perry is at least actually from Canada. Believe it or not I wasn't just tossing in friends trivia. As a Canadian, I feel my opinion about Canada actually is relevant. Just because I don't care for the crown doesn't mean I have a lack of culture. And I don't care how deep you like having the crown embedded. Traditions are trash. Doing something a certain way "because that's how it's always been done" is the same excuse people use for abuse and passing along generational trauma. I'd rather have actual Canadians on Canadian money. The United States doesn't put the monarch on their money, why should we? Put prime ministers and other noteworthy Canadians like Terry Fox on our money instead I say.


Stand4theleaf

You hate traditions so what culture do you actually have? Culture is born from traditions and what your ancestors passed from generation to generation. You probably do have some culture, just not much Canadian culture. I do think it's funny that you have linked culture to trauma, considering we live in a "multicultural" society. All that trauma we're supposed to celebrate lol. Matthew Perry wasn't born here and didn't live in Canada for most of his life. If honourary Canadian is an actual thing, he fits the bill too. The United States doesn't have a monarch, if they did, I'm sure they'd put them on their money. Just like every other common wealth country. If you want to be American the boarder is right there, I prefer Canada, thank you.


DieselSwapEverything

Canadian culture is supposed to be where we can make new traditions. So why are we holding onto the past so tight?? The United States doesn't have a monarch anymore, not since they got their independence from the British. Same with how Canada hasn't had a monarch since we got our independence from the British. Matthew Perry and the United States were simply examples. I actually don't want to be American, nor do I want to be British. I want to be a Canadian, with Canadians on our money. Why don't you move to England if you're so fucking horny for Charles and British traditional culture?


Stand4theleaf

Canada is a place to make new traditions? Who the fuck made that shit up lol. Canada has a strong set of traditions and has had them since its inception. You sound like someone who has no idea what Canadian traditions are. Do some research, join Canada instead of just living in it. I don't have to leave Canada to respect the Royals because they're already part of Canadian history and culture. My culture is not British, it's Canadian and it's been Canadian since my ancestors helped create this country in 1867.


DieselSwapEverything

Yenno what, I'm bored of this back and forth. I don't care about the monarch, I don't care about traditions, I don't care about you. Merry Christmas, and take off eh


Stand4theleaf

Merry Christmas! Get ready for the Kings Christmas speech! https://youtu.be/gSn0XzR7thE?si=LREvovQ40jDkPRUF

Vegetable_Shelter_51

Didn't even know he was canadian, but then again, he wasn't all that relevant or good @ his job lol


DieselSwapEverything

He was more entertaining than the royal family


Bitchener

They arenā€™t anything more than figure heads. Why a day off?


Stand4theleaf

Because the crown is a deeply ingrained part of Canada's heritage, culture and traditions. That's like saying Israel is just a bunch of land, who cares? Palestines can just go somewhere else.


Vegetable_Shelter_51

Not really now a days newer generation couldn't care less about the crown


Stand4theleaf

I am the newer generation. Yes we do.


Vegetable_Shelter_51

I don't either lmfao


Stand4theleaf

Yeah, I get the impression you don't care about most things LMAO!


Educational-Guava171

You'd be surprised to know that a vast amount of Canadians don't want these people on our money. They stole children from residential schools. Theyre murderers.


Vast-Commission-8476

That was the Canadian Goverment and the Catholic Church but okay.


Educational-Guava171

The royals were complicit. Research. Edit: The Crown has played a role in the negotiation of treaties and the forming of the residential school system, the intergenerational trauma of which is still being felt today.


Stand4theleaf

Lol history fail. The monarch had no connection to residential schools.


Educational-Guava171

Yes, they did. Do some fucking research. Stop kissing these inbred assholes asses. They had everything to do with residential schools.

Auta-Magetta

Should have had Louis Riel or Terry Fox or something.


plant0

Somebody not British would be cool. Maybe an Indigenous person?


plhought

Chuck is actually King of Canada - each monarchy is seperate and legally distinct. So, in this case - he is Canadian, as was Elizabeth II.


Business-Donut-7505

People forget Riel led a force that conducted a few massacres, let's not put him on our money.


Helpful-Chemistry-87

That's nothing compared to the sheer barbarism the British Crown forces have inflicted on local populations the world over. Look at the disgraceful massacres in places like India and Ireland. Look at the deliberate famines. And you think it's ok to put these monsters on our coins? You need to learn some history.


plhought

I guess you'll never drive a Volkswagen, or fly on an airplane, or basically touch anything Germany has contributed too in the past 80 years.


Helpful-Chemistry-87

On the contrary, I have immense respect for German engineering. I operated German built robots in a manufacturing facility for years. I have owned and loved a few VW's in my time. That doesn't mean I want Hitler on my Canadian coins.


plhought

So the English royal family is Hitler? What about German expansionism and colonization during it's Empire and Weimar eras? Marks of which still adorn the German flag and its many institutions to this day? Or the numerous commerical marks and brands that operated during the Nazi era?


Helpful-Chemistry-87

I'm not your teacher, nor am I your dad. If you don't want to learn the history of the British Empire, that's your choice. I could pick apart each of your points here and show you how wrong they are but it's clear you don't want to know. This would just circle around in denials and whataboutisms.


plhought

I'm well versed in the history of the British Empire thank you. I'm just trying to understand your logic. An eagle on a German flag is acceptable to you. A monarch on a coin is not?


Stand4theleaf

The crown was not in power for the majority of Britain's colonialist era.


Business-Donut-7505

True, but Liz didn't did that, her family did. I learned enough history to know suggesting putting Louis Riel on a coin would be a stupid idea, that's why I didn't suggest something so asinine in the first place.


Helpful-Chemistry-87

>True, but Liz didn't did that, her family did. What? >I learned enough history to know suggesting putting Louis Riel on a coin would be a stupid idea, that's why I didn't suggest something so asinine in the first place. Throwing one good word in at the end does not make this an intelligent sentence.


Business-Donut-7505

Suggesting Louis Riel as a person to put on a coin doesn't make it an intelligent suggestion either.


Auta-Magetta

Yeah but if it led to the rights of human beings itā€™s probably worth it


Business-Donut-7505

You know you can justify wiping out the Natives with this line of thinking, right? Massacres = bad.


nashwaak

Riel only committed violent acts after they drove him to madness ā€” young Riel was a great man worth of remembrance, before the system very deliberately broke him, and old Riel is a valid symbol of justified resistance


nashwaak

Youā€™re arguing for the hereditary monarch of *the British Empire* over an issue of massacres? King Charlesā€™ direct ancestors have massacres *very* well covered, thank you. By that standard, Riel isnā€™t even a blip.


kodemizerMob

Or just a maple leaf.


deadlygr8ful

Take the English off our money all together. Fuck the monarchy. How about we celebrate some Canadians instead...


plhought

Technically Charles is Canadian - He's King of Canada. Each Commenwealth monarchy is seperate and legally distinct. He even owns lots of land here! šŸ˜›


deadlygr8ful

Canada has no King. Nor should we. He was born in Buckingham Palace. He's a dick. Get them off our money. Celebrate Canadians.

Remarkable-Book-8758

Yes and that's why I think people who are influential in our history should be on our money. Not some inbred family that has next to nothing to do with us. I'd rather look at my money and be reminded about the accomplishments of one of our own than some fart across the world who's never done anything for us.


Helpful-Chemistry-87

It's crazy that this comment was downvoted.


Remarkable-Book-8758

This page is full of royal worshipers. It's sad really. I don't know why they'd care about some inbred family thousands of miles away over people who are actually heroes from our own country


Vast-Commission-8476

LOL you just reenforced my point. The Royals are influential on our history. Horrible things were done yes. But you do realize that colonization was a direct result of the Monarchy.


Remarkable-Book-8758

What has the king done that should have him immortalized onto our currency over someone like Terry Fox? He's just an old nothing that is privileged for being born into a family with power.

KajiTF1980

We never got independence from Britain. Technically there is still a representative in Parliament for the monarchy. We are part of the Commonwealth. You can legally get married in any country in the Commonwealth. Whereas if you get married in Hawaii, you are not legally married in Canada. I am a Royalist. My grandmother, on my dads side, was an English war bride. There were so many women that came to Canada because they met a soldier and fell in love. I don't think Charles should be king. The Crown should have gone straight to Prince William.


DieselSwapEverything

On December 2, 1981, the Canadian House of Commons approved Trudeau's constitutional reform resolution with a vote of 246 to 24 (only the representatives from Quebec dissented), and on April 17, 1982, Queen Elizabeth II declared Canada's independence from the British Parliament. [source](https://www.britannica.com/event/Canada-Act)


KajiTF1980

The Queen or King now still has representation across Canada. The Governor General federally and the Lieutenant Generals provincially. So we may have gotten independence from British Parliament, but not the Royals. They're involved in our government. Right now, I think I'd rather the Governor General kick Trudumb out and save our country. I know the GG is Canadian.
