It's absolutely stupid and absurd. Anybody have the right to make and distribute 
a depiction of any denominator of the Canadian money as long as that depiction 
can't be used as "replacement money". You have full right to create any image of 
any coin.

Reproducing anything in the likeness of a current bank note is an offence under 
the Criminal Code
Section 457 of the Criminal Code provides that anyone one who makes, publishes, 
prints, executes, issues, distributes or circulates, including by electronic or 
computer-assisted means, anything in the likeness of a current bank note is 
guilty of an offence punishable on summary conviction and is liable to 
imprisonment for a term not exceeding six months and a maximum fine of $2,000.

No one shall be convicted of the above offence if the likeness of the Canadian 
bank note is

    1. printed;
    2. less than 3/4 or greater than 1 1/2 times the length or width of the bank 
note; and
    3. in black and white or only one-sided.
