I assume the note will be Jenkins/Dodge?

It would be very odd if they didn't.  I suppose it would make the Knight-Dodge signatures on the Journey $100s a very short-lived combo if they did appear.

I don't beleave the signature will be Knight-Dodge, It will
probably be Jenken-Dodge.
Mr Jenkins is already deputy gouvernor since mostly one year.
Don't forget the issue is just in middle of march.

Not that I would go because I live in Montreal, but is the general public invited to the unveiling?

I emailed the Bank of Canada and asked if the unveiling was open to the public. The reply was that unfortuneatly due to space limitations and security reasons the public can't attend. :'(

I find the Journey Series notes to be rather aesthetically unpleasing, so I'm not terribly excited by the announcement.  Anyhow, we'll see the notes in circulation soon enough.

I would really like to see modern notes with old-style vignettes in the design, something like the Union Bank of Canada $10 from 1912.  That would make my day  :)
