The Bank of Canada has unveiled the latest bills in its new polymer note series, the $5 and $10 denominations on Tuesday (April 30).
The new $5 note features images of Canadarm2 and Dextre — two mechanisms that help maintain the International Space Station. The space station’s Canadian commander, Col. Chris Hadfield, unveiled the note aboard the space station in a ceremony beamed back to Earth on Tuesday.
The new $10 note features an image of a Via Rail train journeying through the Rocky Mountains.
