Maurice Richard on the 50 dollar bill. What could be more perfect.

If a Brit can be on a Canadian bill, why cant a Czech!

looks great. I think Canada has pretty cool currency. I'm particularly fond of the $5 dollar bill with the kids playing on the pond, and the quote from the "Hockey Sweater"

Maybe we could have a bill with ALL of the Sutter brothers on it...that would be cool :P

Our money looks like monopoly money. It's suppose to be harder to make them, but, I think it's easier . We have 2 dollar bills, but they're very, very, very, very etc. rare.

But most countries have multicoloured money. a lot of them have different sized bills for different denominations, the americans are in a very small minority with their currency.

We still have the Queen?
When are we going to drop the connection to the royal family. It's not needed. Put some canadian icons on there instead.

Just like others that posted here, I agree. Lets put someone's face on tehre that really helped define Canada. Terry Fox would be an excellent choice. Trudeau perhaps? Maybe some great old time hockey legends...

Sorry, skimed the other posts and didn't see it. I would like to see some sort of dedication to our countrymen that have gone to war (WWI, WWII). I don't think the people that risked their lives for this country get enough respect.

Nice bill except for the shrivelled old face of a Queen that belongs to another country. Why not put past Prime Minister's on the Canadian bills?

Gee, kinda like the other three major notes that we have?

Seriously. We were founded by the British and we always have and still have a lot of ties to them. I'm no fan of the queen, but like it or not, that is part of your history. Let he be on one bill, because in case you guys haven't noticed, we DO have prime ministers on the other three.

Take her off the coins maybe, but let her have the 20.

flamingchina-They're suppose to be making our money different colors, but who knows if they are and when they are.

I believe our war and peacekeepers are commerated on the $10.


For those that think increasing the # of icons on Canadian bills is a good idea just think of what could end up on our bills:

Celine Dion.
Anne Murray.
Alan Thicke
Rita McNeil
RUSH
William Shatner
Alex Trebek
Bruno Gerussi
Canadian Tire Scotsman
