Good Guy Canada. This is our new money. (i.imgur.com)
submitted 3 months ago by kcholmes24
[–]BearnardOg 48 points49 points50 points 3 months ago
Great, the money thing again. Now, we're obligated to point out your hereditary theocracy, then you say "but that's just symbolic, we're really secular." Then we point out that the queen is on your money too. Then you say that is a silly thing to point out. Then somebody posts a picture of a Canadian coin that has says "d.g. Regina" meaning "by the grace of god, queen" then we argue about whether old Latin formal titles matter . . .

This subreddit had caused me to revisit God as a positive force. I mean, if this is what people are like without him...
[–]Buffalox 0 points1 point2 points 3 months ago
There is no evidence for "God as a positive force", and just because I may be wrong it doesn't make you right.
You can be bad with or without God, just as you can be good.
What it boils down to, is what kind of person you really are.
But you are free to base your life on unsubstantiated religious claims if that's your choice.

[–]burn_after_redditing 0 points1 point2 points 3 months ago
"maple syrup" is not the smell I would use to describe them.
It's a vaguely "hot plastic" smell that is somewhat industrial and has a smoky sweetness to it. If you lean in and take a big sniff, the chemical odor overpowers the subtle one, and you can clearly tell that it's the smell of the plastic and manufacturing process, but if you only have a few bills and are not smelling too hard then I could see where you would get the confusion.
Also, as a note the new 50's have the same smell as the 100's

All the while Quebec suppresses basic liberties like freedom of speech to students protesting tuition hikes. Not so very good guy Canada, eh?
[–]the_pin 2 points3 points4 points 3 months ago
Haha, first of all Quebec doesn't count.
Second, I hardly think raising tuition from $2500 to $3600 per year is so terrible. $3600/year is still the cheapest tuition in Canada/North America. The basic liberties, well...once you start getting violent and rioting you can't hide behind liberties that are only available to people acting in a civilized manner. The whole idea of policing and the justice system is premised upon acting civilized even in situations of protest.
[–]TheJollyBrit 2 points3 points4 points 3 months ago
Nah, good on them for protesting. We only managed two/three days of protests about fees being tripled to £9000.
[–]GrindyMcGrindy -1 points0 points1 point 3 months ago
Quebec does count no matter how much you want to discount it from your country. I can't just say throw away the entire American south because they're the primary bible bumping states can I? Should I point out the city of Vancouver has used losing at hockey as a tipping point to start two riots? So does BC not count because those riots were more mundane than what students in Quebec are protesting.
3,600 dollars is still an extra 1,100 dollars more that compounds over time. Let me ask this question: Did you support the occupy movement? Part of what that stupid movement, while I agree with some of things they said need change they offer no solution and no unified platform so the movement has become purely stupid at this point, was that tuition rates were too high.
Considering the economic situation where Wall Street is profiting while other places are still hurting the extra 1,100 dollars in tuition hurts the personal wallet even more.
Also, you're partially right that the justice system is premised upon acting civil. However, the justice system has more premise in protecting property than civility.

[–]van_vanhouten 3 points4 points5 points 3 months ago
Sorry, but I don't see replacing one syllable with two improving the metre of the song. I sure do respect your opinion though, buddy.

May we keep our land (5) Glor-i-ous and Free (5)
Thoughts?
[–]van_vanhouten 2 points3 points4 points 3 months ago
I think that the 4 to 5 creates an upward momentum to the song and singing the may we part seems rushed (and a little french).
[–]van_vanhouten 4 points5 points6 points 3 months ago
Actually, I take that back, I just sang the song with a slightly different rhythm and it worked quite well. Good work ya hoser.

I'm an atheist myself, but how can there be so many posts on reddit bashing people complaining about the teaching of evolution and whatnot in schools; and then you post this.
IMO; who. gives. a. flying. fuck. what is in your anthem. or the american anthem; or pledge of allegiance.
ffs
[–]folkshade 1 point2 points3 points 3 months ago
Thanks for your criticism. Having a national anthem of a purportedly "secular" country give tribute the arbitrary Christian god is favouritism. Where there is favouritism, there's is discrimination on the other end. We apparently believe in equality for all, yet our outdated anthem gives preference to a particular demographic while disregarding other beliefs (and non-beliefs).
[–]_NoMercy888 1 point2 points3 points 3 months ago
I have absolutely no problem with a reference to god in our anthem. The only criticism I really ever heard about O Canada was the line "in all my sons command".

O Canada! Land of our forefathers, Thy brow is wreathed with a glorious garland of flowers. As is thy arm ready to wield the sword, So also is it ready to carry the cross. Thy history is an epic Of the most brilliant exploits. Thy valour steeped in faith Will protect our homes and our rights Will protect our homes and our rights
Well, it still contains cross, but it's less direct.

Canada gets cheap merchandise, beer in grocery stores, an NFL team, a few navy warships (because his noodliness damn well knows we need some), access to all regionally-restricted websites, and you have to return ownership of Tim Hortons. Also next year you need to make sure a Canadian team wins the Stanley cup.
In exchange we'll give you universal health care, Steve Nash, the Toronto Blue Jays AND the Raptors, the province of Prince Edward Island, the province of Newfoundland, and all the poutine and maple syrup you can eat. However you also have to take nickelback.

[–]Sonntag 0 points1 point2 points 3 months ago
It doesn't have to be taken as bragging but it certainly can be, and I think a lot of the other comments show people are taking it the same way I did. It's hard not to take it as bragging when it's posted in the atheist subreddit and contrasted with a picture of an American bill with "In God We Trust" circled in red.
Making a point and bragging aren't the same thing.
I do agree some people are bragging but I think you are being too sensitive. It isn't like you lost in an arm wrestling match in front of a girl you like. It is just someone pointing out a minor difference in our 2 countries values based on what appears on our bills.... no biggie d00d

[–]goofygoobarock 2 points3 points4 points 3 months ago
I think it was more of an effort from leaders to unify the country by putting faith in something most of us believed in. I don't think they were trying to do anything bad, just reminding people that everything will be ok.
But when the cold war ended, so should have "In God We Trust".
[–]patherix 1 point2 points3 points 3 months ago
To expand on this, our government decided to put "In God We Trust" on money to separate the theist West from the atheist Communists; effectively showing that we are superior because we have God on our side.
Needless to say, now that the Cold War is over, some question the necessity of this saying on our currency.

Not stiff, basically the same texture as a "paper" bill, but a bit smoother. I'd assume they are recycled. And because they last longer, you don't need to print up as many.
[–]the_Milkweed 0 points1 point2 points 3 months ago
basically just google it
They are better for the environment because they last way longer and thus we don't produce as much.
We also dropped the penny.

Is that the one with Maple Syrup scented scratch-n-sniff?

Dude, someone burned a hole in your money. You'd better find out who it was.
[–]showmepotatosalad 0 points1 point2 points 3 months ago
So how come our bills keep changing for 'security purposes', and America's stay the same? Genuine question
It would be a vile commie plot if someone changed their bills?
Because we did it right the first time. 'Murrka yeah!!!
Because we take care enough to take measures to ensure the security of our currency. The USA doesn't.
Why is the USA still in the Imperial measurement system?
American currency just seems really easy to counterfeit

I'm getting pretty tired of this stuff. /r/atheism touts that it is moral, and that it has good will toward its own. Well, instead of laughing that some are trapped in a terrible country. A country rapidly approaching a dystopia, you try something positive.

Ok, but does it actually smell like bacon?!
[–]btp99 1 point2 points3 points 3 months ago
Nope. Maple.
Yeah I definitely meant to write maple syrup there but I was clearly thinking about something else haha
[–]RickySan65 0 points1 point2 points 3 months ago
we actually have maple bacon and damn it's good
Wait what? They don't have maple bacon in the US? Holy fuck. You have not lived.
[–]harrigatoe 0 points1 point2 points 3 months ago
I don't like having "god" on the US dollar, but every time I see someone freak out over some scientist on a foreign reserve I want to jump out a window. Look at how many patents US scientists make every year.

Don't sell us short, our $50 has a research vessel on it.

i have seen this and i get it does there need to be "beating a dead horse" meme made for this. Science is great thus Canada putting something related to it on their money must make Canada the superior country...

Forgetting everything else about this money, I love that anti-burn maple leaf logo. Fucking awesome.

The Canadian bill really pisses me off. It's supposed to commemorate the discovery of Insulin by Frederick Banting, but shows a picture of generic female scientist instead.

Again another post that has nothing to do with Atheism. It's to praise science, not Atheism. You can't just combine science with Atheism without giving us a connection to them. It's like "Science therefore Atheism!"

if you flip that $100 over youll see one of the most influential innovators in human history.
