It Strikes Me Funny: “Penny for your thoughts”

One of the Conservative Government’s penny saving ventures will be delayed. PM Harper has decided to produce the iconic Canadian penny until after Christmas.

Then, after that, exciting new transactions will take place at cash registers across the land!

And we’ll all save millions!

Well... we’ll maybe save $11 million, minus the cost of all the new nickels Mr. Harper will have to produce.

How much will that cost us? The PM will never say.

And since nickels cost more to produce than pennies, we could actually lose money (as well as the iconic penny) for years to come.

Welcome to Harperville!

Penny for your thoughts.
