Does this new $50 dollar bill scare you? According to information obtained by the Canadian Press under the Access to Information Act, some people who participated in focus groups on Canada’s new currency designs saw shapes inside the port holes of the Coast Guard’s research icebreaker, the Amundsen. “The small white windows at the front of the icebreaker’s bow were believed to have faces in them,” a report says. “One respondent who saw faces in the windows suggested that they looked like skulls and crossbones.” Others said they thought the Inuktitut syllabics which mean “the Arctic” were a code or simply mysterious symbols.The $50 plastic bills will enter circulation in March.
