The Canadian Journey series was designed to celebrate Canada's history, culture and achievements.
In 2001, the Bank of Canada introduced the new $10 note, with the $5 note in 2002. The Bank issued the new $100 bank bill in March, the $20 note in September, and the $50 note in November 2004.
All banknotes have tactile features to assist people who are visually impaired to identify the notes.
With most or all other features remaining the same Canadian Journey Series Banknote varieties exist with changes to the Date Printed and the signatures combinations. Canadian Banknotes are also printed by two different printers, the Canadian Banknote Company and BA International Inc. The serial number prefix indicates which printer was responsible for printing the particular banknote.
