The pound gets its name from the fact 1 pound sterling was the value of 1 lbs of silver, 240 silver pennies.

Canada dropped the gold standard before we even had our own standard national currency and therefore never had a currency based on the weight of any material so there is no reason we would have a "pound".

Yeah, it doesn't really matter. You can just say <country> currency if you wanted to.

they're not dollars, they're leaf, didgeridoos, and sheep (respectively)

Fuck you mate, don't treat my wife like currency!

because supposedly only sterling can print the pound and thus royal charter and since they want to make their own money they won't be asking the crown to print money for them
