How much is a 1989 Elizabeth D G Regina Canada coin worth?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

There were at least 5 different varieties of silver dollar struck in 1965. Values range from $7 or so (silver melt value) up to about $300 for the rarer types. You'll need to check pictures in a book such as Krause's Guide to World Coins or have it examined by a dealer who handles Canadian coins.

Note that the Queen's picture is on ALL Canadian coins so that's not a distinguishing image.

What did Britain get out of Canada?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Wealth and increased global power. Britain's Canadian possessions stood between the USA and their Manifest Destiny desires. Britain was also able to give away much of "Canada" (after all they owned it) to the USA to appease American desires and hold them in check throughout the years.

When it became clear that Britain was no longer able to do this, that they would not be able to defend British Possessions in Canada, they encouraged their colonies to Confederate.

Even after that Confederation the British gave away, or rather told the Americans they would not militarily defend a large section of the Canadian coastline in return for political favors outside of Canada.

Britain continued to gain political advantage from Canada and took considerable wealth and cannon fodder from Canada until the last half of the 20th century when the French in Canada gained enough political power to put a stop to that. They then had enough power to have Canada join the USA in trade and military agreements.

Today Britain must talk to the USA if they want anything significant from Canada. Canada is a protectorate of the USA who have veto rights over large trade and military issues.
