Looks good but i thought the furture money was going to be digital.
All truth goes through three stages:

•First it is ridiculed
•Then it is violently opposed
•Finally it is widely accepted as self evident

Haven't seen any personally, since they just rolled out this week. I know it's been planned for some time, and the 100 and a couple of new bills can be seen on the Bank of Canada website. http://www.bankofcanada.ca/banknotes/ba ... s/polymer/

This is nothing new, really. Australia has had almost the exact same kind of polymer currency with transparent windows for well over a decade.

The only question is.... how am I going to Spock my Fives in 2013?
