Still no announcement from the Bank of Canada, but this came from the Bank of England today.

Well, choosing a politically correct person is very difficult these days. It doesn't surprise me that the BoC and the politicians who need to decide are not rushing the issue. (By the way, all the men in the final eight have no chance whatsoever to get on the new $5. It will be one of the three women). Replacing the Queen with King Charles III should be easier and faster if he indeed gets on the $20.

They should take the this opportunity to move to all Canadians on the notes. I'll go a step further, no politicians or activists. Actual people that did things for all Canadians.  Example Terry Fox

You are eliminating a lot of candidates when you say no activists, including Terry Fox…
