They're going to put Terry Fox on the Five. I think will likely be better received.

I suspect once people are used to that, they'll make another try at replacing MacDonald on the Ten. If people get up in arms over that, then they have to explain why they were fine with removing Laurier, but are upset over removing MacDonald.

I misread traditional pick as traditional prick

The Bank of Canada has had at least one monarch on the bill face since its formation.

Charles isn't on Canadian currency because he's the King of England. He's on Canadian currency because he's the King of Canada.

Personally, I'm all for abolishing the monarchy and creating an elected head of state. Then we should do those cool wildlife images someone else posted here.

Also holds the title of King of Canada.

Or any faces of any assholes. These were options we could have had instead of some fucking inbred billionaire from a family of pedophiles.

I do not welcome our teutonic overlords.

Yah bit you see what they have to work with.

You’d be wise to keep some around for that rainy day.

Sole proprietors do.

Strippers don't take Interac.

I do occasionally. I get cash from relatives for my birthday and Christmas and still prefer to pay for cabs with cash. If I want cash, I usually take out $100 and spend cash til I run out. I have a full set of King Charles coins

Well, it's not just the portrait.

The bills are in portrait format, not landscape, yes.

That's the Canadian National Vimy Memorial in France.

Canadian* Bank Note does get feedback from Bank of Canada on designs so I'd say it was a group effort. It's strange that Bank of Canada likes taking all of the credit though.

I'm actually curious who specifically was the lead designer for this one, since Jorge Peral (who has designed all bank notes in recent history) retired before this note was released. I presume he had his hand in it, but how big was his role?
