King Charles III Takes Center Stage on New Canadian $20 Bill
The Bank of Canada is releasing a new $20 bill featuring King Charles III. This marks the biggest change to Canada's most-used banknote in over 70 years.
Bank of Canada Governor Tiff Macklem called the new vertical banknote 'striking, symbolic and secure.' The note combines advanced security features with images that reflect Canada's beauty and history.
The $20 bill featuring King Charles III is set to enter circulation in February 2027. This is part of a larger effort by the Bank of Canada to update its currency.
