Canadian cents were 95% to 98% copper right up until 1997 when the went to copper plated zinc and then to copper plated steel. I'm sure the copper is worth a bit more than a cent.

A quick look at the Charlton Standard Catalog shows they are 95% copper (at least) thru 1996.

On CCRS website, I heard that the actual melt value for a Canadian copper cent is 2 cents.

Those people over on the CCRS are a bunch of Canucks, so what do they know?
Their Capital's hockey team can't even win at home.
