The Canadian Tire ATMs are already immensely popular in Alberta, where people are still seething about the loss of the Canadian one-dollar and two-dollar bills. McTeer is quick to point out that the portrait on Canadian Tire money is not that of John A. MacDonald, Canada’s first prime minister, but Sandy McTire, his finance minister from 1867-1869. “He has more credibility than an old drunk who rode on a train’s cowcatcher, don’t you think?”
“It’s just a more trustworthy and useful currency,” said McTeer, who has been tipping waitresses with Canadian Tire money for 15 years. “Think about the hundred-dollar bill. Retailers just don’t accept those anymore. But no one will say 'no" to a fishful of Canadian Tire bucks, even if they've been through the washing machine. Canadian Tire currency is a standard everyone can trust.” “Would you rather support—who’s this guy on the five-dollar bill, Laurier?— or Sandy McTire?” ![]() The Toque is the world leader in Canadian humour, parody, and satire!
