Canadians, is this true?
 
I'm reading this site that lists 300 interesting facts. one of the facts says, "On a Canadian two dollar bill, the flag flying over the parliament building is an American flag." is that true?

We don't have anymore a $2 bill ... We have a coin.

Would not surprise me.

Most likely printed in the stats as well.

Outsourcing what it is today.

Is there an American flag on the Canadian $2 note?

For years numerous rumors have been circulating for years that the American flag is on Canadian notes. Many notes show a flag, which is actually the Red Ensign (shown at right) which has the Union Jack in the upper corner. This was Canada's flag until 1965 when the red and white maple leaf flag replaced it. You can see that this flag flying over the Parliament Buildings, in miniature can look like an American flag.
Canada has never printed an American flag on banknote.

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh Definitely not true.. maybe on Canadian Tire money!

minniesoporno 08-06-2007 03:11 PM

Well we no longer carry the canadian 2 dollar bill anymore it's a coin and whatever 2 dollar bills are left are usually framed or posted up behind the cash in someone store. I never really looked at it.

RawAlex 08-06-2007 03:26 PM

Is it true that on the US 1$ bill there is the eye in the pyramid symbol of the illuminati?

A fact that I just found out a few days back is that most of the banks in the US are owned by Canadians... I'm not saying every financial institution is but most...

Both the "Illuminati" and "MIB" were creations and a clever experiment as to see the effects on the public... Not one person has ever claimed to be a modern "Illuminati" controlling the world; as is made out to be; not to say there is not a history of a group going by a similar name, but that was the "Bavarian Illuminati" now the "MIB" cannot exist by the very nature that everyone is watching each other... you know the real spooks... and someone out of the many agencies would have noticed something a bit funny with weapons and so being pulled out at ever bad ass...

But again I have been proven wrong in the past...

Later,

Try phoning an American-based company and NOT reaching some broken-english speaking towelhead in India name "RAY".

The States wrote the book on outsourcing. The rest of us are only catching up.

GatorB 08-07-2007 07:09 AM

Why in the hell do you guys put the Queen of England on your money. You don't see us doing that. Are you your own county or England's bitch? I think even Australia does that which I find weird since the first people to settle there were sent as PUNISHMENT.

The Sultan Of Smut 08-07-2007 08:33 AM

Nope not true it wasn't the $2 bill it was the $5 bill :)

She is still the Head of State and, as a monarchy, does hold a position in Canada's parliament. We like to think of her as a silent partner.
Her "voice" within Canada is the Governor General of Canada.

All Canadians are loyal subjects of the Queen.
