As mentioned, we don't have $2 bills anymore, we have coins.
As for the flag, it's "something else". I can't find one to check
but I remember this conversation from somewhere and it's the Ensign
not the Stars and Stripes.
We haven't had the maple leaf for terribly long so a lot of old
pictures and engravings like that have other flags.
