Google.ca says goodbye to the Canadian penny

Via Google.ca
As of today, the Canadian 1¢ piece will no longer be given in change for cash transactions. In last year's budget, the Government of Canada discontinued production of the copper-plated coin. It remains legal tender for the foreseeable future, but is officially obsolete.

At least it had the correct species of maple leaf...
