Canada sold off gold reserves to hold other, more fungible assets in reserve. Nice cherry pick, mister macroeconomic wizard.

This comic is gold.
Gold jerry! Gold!
It was converted to cash and spent as part of the budget by consecutive governments since the height of Canada's gold holdings in 1965 (at 1,023 tonnes).
Add on; Canada's currency hasn't been backed by against Gold since 1933.
