There are six denominations of Canadian circulation coinage in production: 5¢, 10¢, 25¢, 50¢, $1, and $2. Officially they are each named according to their value (e.g. "ten cent piece"), but in practice the three smallest denominations are never called by those names. They are invariably known as the nickel, dime, and quarter respectively; and the two largest coins are very often called the loonie and the toonie respectively. The production of the Canadian one cent piece (known as the penny) was discontinued in 2012, as inflation had reduced its value significantly below the cost of production.
The currency of French Canada is the Canadian dollar, which is abbreviated as CAD or C$. It is the official currency used in the French-speaking province of Quebec and in other French-speaking communities in Canada.

Quebec's Money is called: the Canadian Dollar
Canadian, she speaks fluent French and has a French accent. __________________________________________________________ She's not Canadian AND French... She is simply Canadian. You can call her French-Canadian, a Quebecer, a Quebecoise or whatever you want that is not a nationality, she is doesn't have two nationalities. She is part of a cultural group called Quebecers, which are the French-speaking majority of Quebec, but the fact that she speaks French doesn't make her less Canadian for that matter. As long as Quebec will remain a Canadian province and that this country will be bilingual, speaking French won't give someone a different nationality. She was born in Repentigny, Quebec and her parents were born in Quebec too. She is Canadian, end of story.
at the moment French francs as Quebec will not accept the Canadian currency anymore.
French-Canadian explorers who travelled by canoe (or foot) during the fur trade were called Voyageurs.
