Restoration to original form

I have restored the article to its original form. Further to points above, especially on sourcing WP:QUESTIONABLE and bold editing WP:BRD issues, the ‘Declining Value’ subsection is superfluous (i.e. the ‘Value’ section already mentions historical fluctuations in forex value). A 'Declining Value' subsection also presents the need for an ‘Increasing Value’ subsection, as forex values are relative and constantly fluctuating. This means that even if a currency hits a 15-year low one day, but starts to rise again the next, the currency is rightly said to be ‘increasing’ in value. A ‘Declining Value’ subsection is therefore no longer relevant. Other editors have also tried in vain to caution Peter K Burian with respect to his similar line of reasoning on other articles , yet he continues to ignore the guidelines and attempts to impose his way or the highway. I feel mentioning the Canadian dollar’s all-time highs and lows is both sufficient and appropriate given the precedent of other Misplaced Pages currency pages. There’s no need to mention daily forex rates as Misplaced Pages isn’t a newspaper WP:NOTNP & WP:RECENTISM. Besides, forex rates can already be seen in the context of the ‘current exchange rates’ section. The Canadian dollar’s value is not the article’s central theme! If other editors disagree or have anything more to add to this discussion, please discuss here before boldly changing the article from its original form. Thank you.

File:CAN-S559-Bank of Montreal-10 Dollars (1935).jpg to appear as POTD soon

Hello! This is a note to let the editors of this article know that File:CAN-S559-Bank of Montreal-10 Dollars (1935).jpg will be appearing as picture of the day on March 5, 2018. You can view and edit the POTD blurb at Template:POTD/2018-03-05. If this article needs any attention or maintenance, it would be preferable if that could be done before its appearance on the Main Page. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 07:03, 20 February 2018 (UTC)

Picture of the day

A ten Canadian dollar note, dated 1935. The first note of the 1935 issue by the Bank of Montreal, it depicts J. Dodds and C.B. Gordon with their signatures. The building on the reverse is now part of the Hockey Hall of Fame.

For more than a century, chartered banks were allowed to issue banknotes for domestic use. After the Bank of Canada was established in 1934, it took over the federal issuance of notes; chartered banks were prohibited from issuing their own currency in 1944.Banknote: Bank of Montreal (image courtesy of the National Numismatic Collection, National Museum of American History)
