You are correct and as I said in my 1st reply I don't know. Doing a search the only thing I found was another thread on this site. But in that discussion nobody had a real answer except that it is better to say yes than no, lying to CBSA can have serious consequences. Maybe they are just doing a survey?
And this page:
Digital currencies are not a legal tender
Digital currencies, such as Bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies, are not legal tender in Canada. Only the Canadian dollar is considered official currency in Canada.

With it saying Crypto is not legal tender, but it is not illegal to possess or trade etc., I still don't know if or how CBSA would use that info.
