CA$
This is a multifunction template. At its simplest, it adds the currency mark "CA$", as recommended by MOS:CURRENCY for many situations. The template can also link to the Canadian dollar article and can even calculate inflation. See warnings below.
Usage
{{CAD|number}}
Additional text like "million" or "trillion" must be placed outside the template, typically preceded by a non-breaking space (see example below).
Example:
{{CAD}}
→ CA${{CAD|123.45}}
→ CA$123.45{{CAD|123}}{{nbsp}}million
→ CA$123 million
Link
The parameter |link=yes
may be used to link CA$ to the article Canadian dollar. This is turned off by default, but may be appropriate for the first occurrence of the term in an article.
Example:
{{CAD|123.45|link=yes}}
→ CA$123.45
Inflation calculation
![]() | Do not assume that using this template will mean that a calculated value is "current", "as of 2025", "as of 2024" or even necessarily "recent". Do not use {{CURRENTYEAR}} to refer to calculated value, instead {{Inflation/year|CA}} may be used. See also MOS:REALTIME. | ![]() |
The template supports inflation calculation, by way of {{Inflation}}
. If the second parameter is used, to specify a year, and this year is within a certain range of available inflation data (specifically, if 1914 ≤ year
< 2018), the equivalent value represented in 2018 dollars will be calculated in parentheses. However, this function should only be used in appropriate situations.
Examples:
{{CAD|100|1913}}
→ CA$100{{CAD|100|1914}}
→ CA$100 (equivalent to $2,223 in 2018){{CAD|100|1966}}
→ CA$100 (equivalent to $762.29 in 2018){{CAD|100|1966|link=yes}}
→ CA$100 (equivalent to $762.29 in 2018){{CAD|100|2017}}
→ CA$100 (equivalent to $102.3 in 2018){{CAD|100|2018}}
→ CA$100{{CAD|100|2025}}
→ CA$100{{CAD|100|2026}}
→ CA$100
Additional parameter |about=yes
will cause the template to calculate to the nearest dollar (instead of the nearest cent), and prefix the calculated value with "about". The rounding can be fine-tuned further by using |round=integer
. These parameters may be combined.
Examples:
{{CAD|10|1935}}
→ CA$10 (equivalent to $182.74 in 2018){{CAD|10|1935|round=0}}
→ CA$10 (equivalent to $183 in 2018){{CAD|10|1935|about=yes}}
→ CA$10 (equivalent to about $183 in 2018){{CAD|1000|1935|round=2}}
→ CA$1,000 (equivalent to $18,273.97 in 2018){{CAD|1000|1935|round=-2}}
→ CA$1,000 (equivalent to $18,300 in 2018){{CAD|1000|1935|round=-2|about=yes}}
→ CA$1,000 (equivalent to about $18,300 in 2018)
