Toonie, the colloquial term for the Canadian two-dollar coin, is a beloved icon of Canadian currency. However, there are several synonyms for this term that may be used in different parts of Canada. In Quebec, the toonie is referred to as a "piastre," which is a term borrowed from the French. In Newfoundland and Labrador, it is known as the "doubloon," a reference to the Spanish gold coin. Other terms used in different parts of the country include "twonie," "two-bob," and "maggie," the latter derived from the image of a polar bear on the coin. Despite the varying terms used, the toonie remains a symbol of Canadian identity and spirit.
