I didn't even know there was a bill.

I found this on it.

Never seen such bitching.

"It's soft core porn." < That is probably the dumbest when toplessness is 100% legal in public.

"the Vimy Memorial, created to honor Canadian servicemembers who lost their lives during World War I, is not the most recognizable of national symbols. “I’ve never seen this monument, ever,”" < The bigger problem is most Canadians can not recognize the Vimy Memorial. You know what would help... Putting it on a bill!

"For another, it also happens to be in France: the memorial rises 120 feet over the Douai Plain, near the battlefields where more than 7,000 Canadian soldiers lost their lives." < The site is considered Canadian Soil.

"“Given the climate domestically and around the world, I wonder if war is too much of a statement." < Yeah **** those 7000. The focus group member is right who cares. Funny thing the didn't say it in German. Straight

“When you quickly glance at it, and if I didn’t know any better, it looks like the Twin Towers,” < And now we are off the rails stupid.

That's "honour," by the way. Eh.

heh... at first glance of the article I thought, "looks too much like the twin towers".

I'm also canadian and had no idea what that monument was supposed to be. I knew it wasn't 'exactly' the twin towers, but what else looks like that, looking up with that camera angle? certainly no canadian monument I have ever seen...lol

I like the high-tech anti-counterfeiting stuff built into the bill however.

That is the thing though. Likeness to a pair of towers that were part of a tragedy is one thing but I didn't know what the monument was.

I think that that should be the bigger concern, that so many soldiers sacrificed themselves and most of us don't recognize the monument.

I think the twenty Dollar Bill is the perfect place to remind us of what they gave up.
