5 - CANADA
Les hivers de mon enfance
étaient des saisons longues, longues.
Nous vivions en trois lieux:
l'école, l'église et la patinoire: mais
la vraie vie était sur la patinoire.
- Roch Carrier -
The winters of my childhood were
long, long seasons. We lived in
three places - the school, the church
and the skating rink - but our real life
was on the skating rink

Comments

Varieties :
→ Prefix "H" : Canadian Bank Note Company Limited
→ Prefix "A" : British American Bank Note Company Limited

Mention "Replacement" :
→ Notes that were issued to replace notes that were damaged or destroyed before they were put into circulation.

Printed in "2001 / 2003 / 2004 / 2005" :
→ In 2002, the Bank introduced the new $5 banknote (ISSUE OF 2002) but this note also bears the year of printing on the reverse (PRINTED IN 200X).



Knight/Dodge (Prefix: JHS) - Printed in 2001 - ULTRA RARE (Experimental banknote) :
→ "The Bank of Canada inadvertently issued a $5 note with this serial number [JHS] during a note exchange event to mark the launch of the new $5 note in March 2002. That note was part of the first print run of the Canadian Journey $5 note, and was genuine. While we cannot confirm wheather there may be more notes with the serial number prefix "JHS" in circulation, no evidence exists at this time to suggest so."
