PRINCE GEORGE- A new 10 dollar bill will circulate later this year and it’s the first Canadian note with a vertical design. It symbolizes Viola Desmond’s stand for racial equality and social justice in the 1940s, as her portrait is on the bill. The Bank of Canada added a number of new security features to the bill to prevent counterfeits. Free guides on how to spot counterfeit bills can be found on the Bank of Canada website.
