Here’s a post from the Bank of Canada Museum regarding Timothy Lane.  Seems it will only be in the $50s and $100 notes.

Makes sense, since the $50s and $100s are continually on the rise.  The absence of new notes for the three smallest denominations with the Lane/Macklem signature combo, implies that demand for those three denominations is likely in decline.  It's possible that the number of $10 bills being actively spent nationwide is likely cut in half or greater.  The $10 bill will likely still be around for at least a few more years, but it will probably become scarce like the U.S. $2 bill in some places (Atlantic Canada, in particular).

The 50s and 100s are on the rise due to rising inflation and the rampant Covid related government spending. The lower denominations are not in decline, they are being used as much as before. The 10s, being the “middle” denomination between the more commonly used 5s and 20s, have always been the least used. They are not going anywhere though, despite what you have been suggesting all the time here.
