The Silver Market in Canada
Canada is one of the world’s significant silver producers and home to the Royal Canadian Mint, whose 1 oz Silver Maple Leaf (.9999 fine) is among the most traded silver bullion coins on earth. Canadian buyers deal mostly in troy ounces — Maple Leafs, 10 oz bars and 100 oz bars — through online bullion dealers and the coin shops of Toronto, Vancouver, Calgary and Montreal.
A key Canadian advantage: investment-grade silver of 99.9%+ purity is exempt from GST/HST, so coins and bars trade at the spot price plus only the dealer premium (typically 8–20% on 1 oz coins, less on large bars). The CAD silver price is simply XAG/USD × the USD-CAD rate, which means Canadian silver prices move with both the world spot and the loonie.
The same spot price drives every market: the live silver rates page converts it into 100+ currencies, the silver price history page tracks it across decades, and the gold-silver ratio compares it against gold live. Gold buyer instead? See the gold rate in Canada.

Is silver bullion taxed in Canada?
Investment-grade silver — coins and bars of at least 99.9% purity, like the Silver Maple Leaf — is exempt from GST/HST in Canada. Collectible/numismatic items and silver below that fineness are taxable. Capital gains rules still apply when you sell at a profit.

Why does my dealer price differ from the spot price?
Spot is the wholesale paper price for large .999 bars. Physical products add fabrication and distribution premiums — highest on small coins, lowest on 100 oz bars. When selling, dealers bid slightly under spot. The spread between the two is the real cost of owning physical silver in Canada.
