A secure currency means that we can use cash with confidence that bank notes will be readily accepted, and without fear of being stuck with a counterfeit bill. At the Bank of Canada, we are always mindful of our commitment to Canadians - to contribute to the economic well-being of this country.
Part of that commitment is to communicate our objectives openly and effectively and to stand accountable for our actions. The Famous Five and Thérèse Casgrain remind us of the tremendous influence that individuals can have on society.
