Today the Regiment is part ofthe 35th Canadian Brigade Group. One other very interesting piece of information which directly relates to the Drums etc on the coin The Regimental bnd was the first to ever publicly play 'O Canada' this took place in Quebec City on June 24th 1880 Hope you all like them as much as I do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Art Posted May 7, 2009 Report Share Posted May 7, 2009 I take it that the 2006 Loonie is a proof. Very nice. I like the Canadian 1 and 2 dollar coins. Don't know how that would work here. The dollar seems to be an utter failure no matter what the gov't tries. $2.00 might be more useful in the near future for transportation, parking, tolls, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
De Orc Posted May 7, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2009 Hi Art yep the 06 is a proof we seem to get on ok over here with the £1 and £2 coin there was a bit of complaining when the £1 note was removed from circulation but it did not come as too great a shock as we totaly changed our currency a few yars back to decimal LOL so people were sort of use to a bit of change.
