Another great article by Andrew. It really shows how bad the system is and the absurdity of the RCM.

That's the way to go, Mikey, but we both know that the guy wasn't the only one bringing in fake toonies from China. At the time, ANY person could order fakes of any coin and any date from China. But the number showing up there where the guy lived were more than any place else. Again, good work, Mike.

This was all Andrew, Bill. He has worked very hard on this story. What the authorities caught this guy with was a drop in the bucket. Where did the "other guy go"?

The only way to end it .
Change the design , weight
and composition of the $2 coin or better
yet reintroduce a $2 Polymer note .
The UK changed the £1 coin in 2016
Due to a counterfeit issue .
The CBSA is all over a legitimate coin dealer
returning to Canada yet never bothers checking
counterfeit coin shipments coming from the PRC.
As to this HE character deport the crook.
