    Our dusting of snow is all gone. Maybe I'll go squirt some mayo outside to look like snow

    If so, New York is swarming with Mounties.

    Mounties, loonies, twonies.

    Have you noticed how fast Canadians embrace oddity? Like, how long did it take for our dollar coin to become the "loonie"? Which led, logically enough, for the two dollar coin to become the "twonie".

    And here the Americans are stuck with no dollar coin, a penny that costs two cents to produce, and denominations that all look alike.

    Are we odd or do we just do everything the smart way? Isn't it easier to say loonie than dollar coin?
