not 100% on this but apparently 80% of Canadian bills have traces of cocaine on them.

It's also true with Ameican money but I can't remember the percentage, and I think it was just in 100's, I think I read it in like Bringing down the House (the movie was 21 for you non-readers) or it was Ugly Americans, both by Ben Mezrich

the hearing doesn't, but the saying sure does.

for example, if she doesn't say "no", it definitely means "yes". see that's a fact now.

This is actually true (to a certain extent):


Think you've never touched cocaine in your life? Think again, says a new study, which found traces of the drug on more than 85 per cent of Canadian paper currency.

Researchers from the University of Massachusetts at Dartmouth conducted chemical tests on banknotes from 30 cities in five countries: Canada, the United States, Brazil, China and Japan.

They found the highest levels of cocaine on U.S. and Canadian currency, which had an average contamination rate of between 85 and 90 per cent.

For their research, Zuo and his colleagues analyzed 234 U.S. banknotes and found that up to 90 per cent contained traces of cocaine.

Amounts ranged from .006 micrograms (which is several thousands of times smaller than a grain of sand) to more than 1,240 micrograms of cocaine (about 50 grains of sand).

But the highest levels were found on Canadian notes, with amounts ranging from 2.4 micrograms to more than 2,530 micrograms.
