About the two currencies

The Canadian Dollar (CAD) is issued by the Bank of Canada and used in Canada. Notes are polymer ($5 to $100), and the $1 and $2 coins are the loonie and toonie. The penny was withdrawn in 2013, so cash totals are rounded to the nearest 5 cents.

The Mexican Peso (MXN) is issued by Banco de México and used in Mexico. The peso has floated freely since December 1994 and is one of the most traded emerging-market currencies. It shares the $ sign with the dollar, so prices near the border are often written MX$ or M.N.
