Harmless fun to raise morale is logical
- Bank bans morale-boosting activities, desperately needed when you live in a place like Canada.
  Medically-assisted suicide becomes legal amid protest and rising demand.
  Coincidence? I think not...

Bank of Canada urges
I'm gonna go with "Bank of Canada doesn't actually give a shit and just released a boiler plate statement about defacing currency."
- So apparently in Canada it's actually illegal to deface currency. Like the act itself is a crime with a prison term. It's not like the US where it's only illegal if you do it for the purpose of fraud.

  Which is a fucking stupid law if you ask me, as a Canadian.

Oh Canada, please don't stop "Spocking" the 5'ers!
- That was the original opening line of the national anthem, before the party poopers took it out

- I grew up in a town of about 25k. I didn't make it but there was one that floated around our town for quite a few years. I spose it's possible there were multiple, but it was always fun getting the Spock 5!
- raises hand
  But look it was like a decade or two ago!

As and American I'm gonna say "fuck the government, scribble away."

So we've got the Loonie, the Twonie, and the Ex.

Die soon in poverty

Might as well have some fun with it, you won't be able to buy a penny candy with it by the end of the year at the rate we're going.
