Read it on CBC the other day, now Canada is like Australia. Aussie company is even printing the money lol. We use that stuff here, now they look the same.

It's so mother fuckers can't counter fit that shit. I think it is only the 100 dollar bill right now, but they are going to be rolling out the rest of our bills in that format in the future. Good idea if you ask me. Good idea even if you don't ask me.

BKT.

This is the one I read http://www.cbc.ca/news/business/smallbusiness/story/2011/10/...

$100 now, $50 a few months into 2012 and the rest in 2013.

When it was first announced earlier this year (or longer) they said an Australian company was gonna be making them, probably same one that does ours.

They last in the wash and you gotta put massive effort into ripping one (or just grab scissors). Cool fuckin things though.

Better plastic than made out of thin air if you ask me.

There was a guy near me that printed $5 bills and such for decades and never got caught until he was like 80 or something cuz nobody looks at a fin ever,

Had a friend busted with a wad of fony $20s years ago.
Shit they used to just go buy an egg roll at them bullet proof Chinese joints in the hood and walk away with $19 in legit change.......his cellmate boxed Tyson....
