M1 is currency (in the circulation) plus chequable (demand) deposits. The biggest component of M1 is chequable deposits. If a coin face value were not greater than its intrinsic (metallic) value, people would eliminate coins from circulation and sell them for their metallic content. M2 = M1 + personal savings deposits & non-personal (business) notice deposits at chartered banks. M2+ = M2  +  mortgage loan companies and deposits at trust, caisses populaires and credit unions, and government savings institutions +  money market mutual funds, and life insurance annuities. M2++ = M2+ + Canada Savings Bonds & other retail instruments + non-money market funds.
