I don't know why people get annoyed by it, but finding Canadian change is pretty common in America and I have seen plenty of people get annoyed by it rather than the more appropriate reaction of excited. It's like finding a wheat penny.
Jimmy the Squid:
Man, we get change from New Zealand all the time. I like it because it's never been refused in a shop before (not for me anyway) and it's fun seeing what crazy animals they have on their coins.
Vendetagainst:
all we ever get is pennies mostly, but it's pretty sweet when you get a Canadian nickel. Why? I'm not sure.
Australian currency has some pretty crazy animals on it too.

Really sucks when they get refused by vending machines though.
ViolentDove:
Sometimes, foreign coins are worth their weight in gold in vending machines.
And sometimes, they just block up the coin slot mechanism.
Wow... that's like a metaphor or something.
