Anyone know where to get them. Saw Colonial Acres has them but you need to purchase $150 worth of merchandise to get 2.
I'm located in Southern Ontario in the London area....not really close to any Coin Exchanges.

Yes and shipping is $3.99 so that's $6.99 for one card.

We used to think, that it something complimentary to the coins. But, the card is also commemorative / collectible item, does requires some charge to be paid (the coins distributed as exchange for face value). The bad thing, that RCM doesn't have them in unlimited (sufficient) quantity, and doesn't sell them, even for small fee.

Has anybody tried calling the mint to inquire if they would send any? I wonder if that would be effective.

Asked my rep for some over a month ago. Haven't received them yet and not sure I ever will. Not much chance a random call to the Mint is going to get you anywhere but it doesn't cost anything to ask.

Just looked at my sets I bought from CCC , they gave me one of those cards with the purchase. I cant imagine they are very rare but reading this post not many have one. Weird.

Maybe RCM is trying to drum up incentive to visit the coin exchanges so they can post the publicity shots on Facebook?

CCC also included 1 Sir John A Macdonald collector card with my 5 pack orders. If anyone in Calgary is interested, I found these collector cards at the Crossroad Market on the weekend. Coin shop there gave me 6 free collector cards. No purchase necessary.

Just won an auction on ebay for the Wait for me Daddy collector card including the toonie and shipping for $4.20. I'm really hoping I can find the MacDonald collector card for around the same price somewhere.
