I genuinely don't think I've paid in cash in Canada for about 10 years now.

Chacun ร  son goรปt. I admit that many people I know don't carry cash anymore, or only carry a small amount "for emergencies".

I haven't touched a note or a coin for 6 months now, last time I just had to because the machine only accepted coins
