And just how are they going to keep a dead man's eyes closed w/o the pennies and who will pay the ferry man?

Yes, the dear ole penny will be put out to

pasture, so be sure to keep a few for souvenirs.

I will pick up a penny...it's said to be good luck. ;)

I didn't hear that about Canada, and I live near the border. But, I did hear that the U.S. is thinking of doing away with the penny. I hope they don't. .......b/c how are you supposed to count out the right change or give back the right change without the penny.......Like, tonight, my dinner in a resturant was  $ 4.87. I gave him a  $5.00 bill. He gave me back the change which included pennies. It was a spinach pie.

That dinner in Canada, after the penny is gone, will cost $4.90

I don't bother picking them up.
