I'll hazard another guess:

The centre block, along with the peace tower, will be on the $50.

The $20 will show the parliament buildings from across the river in Hull, similar to the view on the Birds $2.

The Centre Block of Parliament graces the front of the new $20.  This is NOT a guess, but I am 99.9999999% certain. :) :) :)

(I saw a close-up of the note on the BoC website!)

I guess the Peace Tower will have to wait for the big red $50... ::)

Now that we know that the Center Block is on the new 20$; it's easy to guess that the Peace Tower will be on the new 50$.

The Queen is the head of state like the Center Block is the ''head'' of the Federal Government.; So the choice of the center block was logic for the 20 $.

For the Peace Tower; it's seem logic to me that it will be on the new 50$ bill with King's portrait; because WLM King ruled Canada during WWII and was at the San Francisco conference for the foundation of the United Nations Organization
