The Bank of Canada<\/a> has unveiled the design of the new $20 note, featuring King Charles III.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s the first Canadian banknote to carry his image, replacing the late Queen Elizabeth II, who has appeared on Canadian bills for decades. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The new note is vertical, with the familiar green colour and updated security features designed to make counterfeiting harder. The new $20 will be put in circulation in February 2027..<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the other side of the bill is an image of the Canadian National Vimy Memorial, which is located on the site of the 1917 Battle of Vimy Ridge in France.<\/p>\n\n\n
