I was just informed that we should have information on the new $100 and $50 banknotes on or before June 22nd. :)

Terrific!  This will make for great filler for those on a tight deadline to finish their July Newsletters.  Looking forward to the release and pictures of the banknotes. 8)

Not sure if this is the appropriate place, but here's an interesting video on how polymer notes are produced, the interesting part is how the substrate itself is produced.

Anyone noticed that the article on the BOC's website has disappeared, and there is no mention of an event today on the website? Hope it's not delayed.  ???

EDIT: Retracted, but when I clicked the link it said the "page was not available" and I couldn't find a mention about it on the BOC's website at the time.

I had a hell of a time trying to open the pdf file, so here are thumbnails of the notes from Wizard1's post in case anyone else can't open the pdf easily:

I wonder if the actual notes will be exactly as pictured here?  If so, the BofC has done away with the:
-Canadian Coat of Arms :o ???
-Copyright notice
-Names of the buildings on the face of the notes
-Bar codes next to the serial numbers, and
-Year the notes were printed.

I'm surprised the BOC hasn't uploaded the information about security features on its website yet

Anyways, they have a video of the new $100 on Youtube, almost the same as the one we saw at the unveiling ceremony, but minus the $50.  :(
