Yes, any currency's-coins are usually collectible. At worst, they are usually at-least-worth face-value, which is not a problem unless inflation-rates are relatively-high. If a country's-currency goes under (like the Confederate-states' in the U.S.-Civil-war, or Axis-powers' in World-War-II, ...), then that currency no longer has a face-value, but that currency is usually more-collectible over-time. Coins have an intrinstic (base-metal) value.

Yes they are, for example they came out with a collection of quarter coins especially for the Olympics (for the Vancouver Olympics), but there are also different coins that were made before hand. The market for selling these coins is not big right now, and also there value is not higher than what is stated in them (a quarter).

As much as some of the designs on Canadian quarters can be very interesting they are not considered collectors items. A person is free to collect any item for pleasure.
