When did Canada stop making copper pennies?
If "they" in the question refers to the U.S., the U.S. government, or the U.S. Mint, then 1982 was the last mint year for 95% copper Lincoln cents. Since mid-1982, the newest (current, as of 2012) formulation or composition for U.S. one-cent coins ("pennies") has an inner core alloy of 99.2% zinc with 0.8% copper, with the coin balance as an outer plating of pure copper, for a total coin composition of 97.5% zinc and 2.5% copper. These current pennies are commonly called "zinc pennies". The composition of U.S. pennies from mid-1864 to mid-1982 was an alloy of 95% copper with either 5% tin-and-zinc ("bronze" pennies) or 5% zinc ("brass" pennies). Before that, the composition was an alloy of 88% copper with 12% nickel from mid-1857 to mid-1864 (the only time any pennies ever contained nickel), and, initially, from 1793 to mid-1857, the first U.S. pennies were made of pure copper.
Since the first U.S. one-cent coins in 1793, U.S. pennies have always contained at least some copper, except for 1943, when they were made of a low-grade carbon steel and coated with zinc, having a grey color, due to the need for copper and brass during World War II.
Therefore, the most correct answer to the question is either:
(1) "they" (the U.S.) have never stopped making copper pennies, except in 1943; or
(2) 1943 is the only year the U.S. stopped making copper pennies.
Hope this helps!

What is the value of a 1944 copper penny?
A British 1944 bronze Penny (George VI), uncirculated and in absolute mint condition could fetch up to £25 GBP. If it has been circulated but still in good condition, it might fetch anything up to £6 GBP.
The values quoted are the best possible for the best specimens in their grades, but may be significantly lower due to varying demand for the coin and the prevailing economic climate. A reputable coin dealer will be able to give a more accurate valuation based on inspection of the coin.
What is the value of an 1839 Canadian dime?
Please check your coin again and post a new, separate question. The first Canadian 10¢ coins were minted in 1858.
You need to check if there's a small letter underneath the date:
No letter - 35¢ if very worn, up to about $10 if like new
"S" - $10 to $50
"D" - $200 to $500, but beware of counterfeits. A genuine 1914-D cent will NOT have the small letters "VDB" under Lincoln's shoulder near the edge of the coin. A fake made from a 1944-D by altering the last "4" WILL have those letters
I would say it would only be worth face value; one Canadian dollar.
How much gold is in a 1989 gold Canada one dollar coin?
If you are asking about the "golden" dollar with the duck-like loon on one side and the Queen's head on the other, this is actually aureate-bronze plated nickel, and has no gold content. In pristine uncirculated condition, it's worth about $3 on the collector's market; otherwise, it's spending money on your next trip to Canada. :-)
Was there ever a misprint of a coin with a penny on one side and a nickel on the other?
To clear things up, coins are minted rather than "printed". Printing involves paper and ink, or 3-D printers, etc.
What you have is almost certainly a trick coin made by cutting a genuine cent and nickel in half edgewise, swapping and then joining one side from each. It's the same kind of novelty item as those famous two-headed or two-tailed magicians' coins. They sell for a few bucks in novelty shops but aren't valid numismatic collectibles.
