<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Hobo, post: 318971, member: 11521&quot;]Canada discontinued their $1 bill in 1996 when they introduced the Loonie (their $1 coin with a loon design). They knew that the Loonie would not be accepted as well if they allowed the paper dollar to remain in use. They were correct. Now the Loonie is very popular in Canada. So much so that a Toonie ($2 coin) has been introduced.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The US Congress continues to think their approach - trying to convince Americans to use Golden Dollar coins while allowing the paper dollar to continue to circulate - will one day magically work. It has not worked in 29 years and it won&#039;t work. The paper dollar must be discontinued if the dollar coin is ever to be accepted in the US. (Just look to our north for all the evidence you need.)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
