>They are very common in Quebec also. I didn't know that it was so unpopular in Alberta. I went there in January 2007, I don't remember if I used a 2$ coin there at that time. Probably not, because I never got a strange look from a cashier :)
I left Alberta before the toonie came out, so I don't know if they have the same attitude about it, but the 2 dollar bill was considered bad luck. I never found out why.

>>I lived in Alberta from 1975 to 1985, and when I got there I was very surprised to find that the 2 dollar bill was so despised. I always expected people to make a hex-warding sign when I pulled one out. Once mine were gone, I never saw another one all the time I lived there. Here in Ontario, they were common.
