Banknotes of the Canadian dollar are the banknotes or bills (in everyday usage) of Canada, denominated in Canadian dollars (CAD, C$, or $ locally). Currently, they are issued in $5, $10, $20, $50, and $100 denominations. All current notes are issued by the Bank of Canada, which released its first series of notes in 1935. Beginning in 2011, polymer banknotes were introduced and have already been partially phased in, the 100's, 50's and 20's have already been issued. The 10's and 5's will be issued before the end of 2013. Banknotes issued in Canada can be viewed at the Currency Museum of the Bank of Canada in Ottawa.

Famous quotes containing the words canadian and/or dollar:
“We’re definite in Nova Scotia—’bout things like ships ... and fish, the best in the world.”
—John Rhodes Sturdy, Canadian screenwriter. Richard Rossen. Joyce Cartwright (Ella Raines)
“I favor the policy of economy, not because I wish to save money, but because I wish to save people. The men and women of this country who toil are the ones who bear the cost of the Government. Every dollar that we carelessly waste means that their life will be so much the more meager. Every dollar that we prudently save means that their life will be so much the more abundant. Economy is idealism in its most practical terms.”
—Calvin Coolidge (1872–1933)
