      Why can’t it be spent? It’s accepted in Canada all the time.

    I ain't in canada.  

    Why would I spend $300+ (USD) to get to Canada just to spend 3 Canadian dimes and 6 Canadian pennies? (not counting the cost and hassle of getting a passport)

    Canada stopped production of the penny in 2012 and now pennies are no longer in circulation.

    Probably because so many of them kept ending up in the US that it wasn't worth making them.
