#GoldPrintsNewATH Canada Sold ALL Its Gold — And Most People Don’t Even Realize It 😳
Here’s a wild piece of financial history most people miss. Back in 1965, Canada held 1,023 tonnes of gold — worth around $149B today. Fast-forward a few decades… every single ounce was sold. Canada slowly replaced physical gold with foreign bonds, liquidity, and paper assets, becoming the ONLY G7 country with ZERO gold reserves 🤯 Meanwhile 👇 🇺🇸 USA: ~8,133 tonnes 🇩🇪 Germany: ~3,352 tonnes Very different strategies. This wasn’t a one-time decision. It happened over multiple governments and central bank leaders — Trudeau, Mulroney, Crow, Thiessen — all sharing one belief: Gold was no longer necessary in a modern financial system. Now fast-forward to today 👀 • Inflation fears • Geopolitical tension • Central banks buying gold again • Crypto entering the “store of value” debate And people are asking the obvious question: Was selling all that gold actually a smart move? 🤔 And even more interesting… Will Canada ever rethink its gold strategy? ⏳ History has a funny way of coming back into focus.
🔥 Ultra-Short Hook Version (for comments or repost) Canada once had 1,023 tonnes of gold — now it has ZERO. Only G7 country with no gold reserves. Smart modernization… or historic mistake? 🤔
