The Canadian dollar is the national currency and monetary unit of Canada. The country of currency circulation is Canada. The rate of the Canadian dollar is set during trading on the currency exchange... and is constantly changing. Its value depends on the balance of supply and demand. According to the accepted in the 70s. IMF Jamaican currency system, this method of determining the exchange rate is called free conversion. When, in 1759, part of the state was captured by British troops, more than 60 thousand people already lived in it, using French as their main language. Since 2011, this figure has exceeded seven million, and the language has become the second officially recognized state language. As a tribute to the traditional names of such colonies, most often the Quebecers, but also others, call banknotes plays (pesos), and change coins sous, instead of cents.
