1. We know who Xi wants.

   1. We should know shortly what Klaus Schwab wants.

      1. There’s an old Jewish saying: “eventually you get the face you deserve.”

2. Where’s Karl Marx?

   So the Journalism-trained “Finance Minister” gets to choose?

   1. Let’s be honest, Chrystia Freeland will not be making the choice. The PMO will choose, Justin will rubber stamp, and Freeland will make the announcement.

   2. Karl Marx is running the printing machine.

3. Whoa, tough choice. Heroic white guy or a native who fought FOR “colonialism”. I wonder who the lefties would hate more?

   Maybe we could put that husky Brian the Beauty Pageant winner guy from Derry on the Canadian $5 bill so everyone is offended?

4. Its a toss-up between Jessica Yaniv and Kayla Lemieux.

   1. ROFLMAO!

5. 7 people I’ve never heard of, and Terry Fox…

   I wonder who the other 592 people were that the “advisory committee” rejected

   1. When I saw her name, a childhood catch-phrase popped into my head: “This is Lotta Hitchmanova, so fork it over!”

      1. “This is Lotta Hitchmanova of the Unitarian Service Committee. Every year, thousands of Unitarians are serviced by our committee. Please help!”

6. Terry Fox – token white

7. I could get behind Francis Pegahmagabow. You def don’t want to be in front of him… wearing a Wermacht helmet.

   Most deadly sniper in WW1, whats not to like?

   1. He was my vote.

   2. Mine too! A very good choice.

8. Here’s a suggestion. It wins boobs hands down.

9. Anyone want to wager that it won’t be Terry Fox. After all he’s the only recognizable name on their selected list.

   1. No matter how inspirational, no matter how much money raised for charity, no matter being an amputee and dying young from cancer, Terry Fox is stigmatized by his white, heterosexual male-ism. He never got to declare his privilege either that I am aware of.

10. Changed my mind. Screw Karl Marx … you should choose: Isapo-muxika or Sahpo Muxika

    Why? His unpronounceable name appears to need tongue clicks to pronounce. Tongue clicks are fun … and I can’t wait to hear your culture appropriating PM give it a try. I expect his tongue clicks will have a French accent.

    1. He’s been practicing tongue clicks when Klaus Schwab asks him to lick his boots clean.

11. There’s less White men on this list then you would see on a Canadian TV commercial in The Last 5 Years

    1. To be fair there are still white men in TV commercials, although they are usually gay, in a bi-racial relationship or complete morons.

12. I vote for the Abo with the full Indian headress of feathers to put on the money.
    And I mean pictured on the money exactly as he’s depicted in the story

13. Huh, no Fidel Castro or Chairman Mao???? WTF is happening to Canada, they weren’t even nominated – well at least not publicly.

14. Who’s the mountie from Rocky and Bullwinkle?

    1. Dudley DoRight.

    2. Dudley Dooright? I remember a cartoon mountie by that name.

       1. When the request for nominations came out (pre-covid), I had submitted Sam Steele; One of Canada’s first mounties; soldier; has a ‘heritage minute’. Had a role in almost every significant historic event in western Canada between Confederation and the Klondike gold rush. Of course, he was ignored.

15. Why don’t we make our own SDA bucks? More trustworthy and valued than any other currency out there, digital or wallet version. It could have pictures of Kate’s champion dogs on the back and the various moderators pictures on the front. We could exchange them for indulgences to be able to post items on the site? No HST

16. Control F “activist” on that page. Do you think any of those people ever used that word?

17. It’s gotta be Eddie Shack

    https://primalinformation.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/Eddie-Shack-1-300×163.jpg

    1. Shack didn’t have any brakes. I vote Laurier or the King. What do you mean, I don’t get a vote?

    2. Shouldn’t it be Henderson?

    3. Is there room for two heads on the fiver??

       https://www.ctvnews.ca/polopoly_fs/1.3436096.1520523874!/httpImage/image.jpg_gen/derivatives/landscape_1020/image.jpg

       After all … that is how THIS American knows Canada

18. As somebody said ‘7 people I have never heard of and Terry Fox’ – They still haven’t come up with a racebaiting 2 spirited BIPOC gender fluid non binary tranny in a wheelchair who identifies as a Freightliner(honk/Honk) –
    In all seriousness I believe it should be Jacques Plante – No other athlete has done so much for his sport or to turn the spotlight on hockey which was in his day THE Canadian sport – Just consider that every goalie IN THE WORLD from kids in house leagues to beer leagues to the bigs owes so much to Plante – The Greatest of all Time – However he is not obscure enough for the cementheads on the committee – If it isn’t Terry Fox whoever is chosen will leave the majority of Canadians scratching their heads rolling their eyes and asking Who Dat?

19. If you want to see where a culture is going, look to who its heroes are.

20. Five dollar bill?
    Who cares?
    I want the three dollar bill,with a Trudeau on either side.
    Made of a nice rubberized texture,cause Canadians are too stupid to notice such a joke.

    1. We should have one with Chrétien on it. Then we would have a trifecta. A Loonie, Toonie and a Cretin.

21. Shaggy Maggie turdo gets my vote. While Bardot was hugging baby seals, Maggie bravely promoted Canada’s fur trade in NYC discos.

    1. The classic Maggie beaver shot would be great on the five.

    2. Still have that pic. Pierre couldn’t find a stick to beat it with.. had never seen one before.

       1. Pierre was as queer as they came. Maybe that kept him out of the army.

22. Since we are all ‘Citizens of the World’, our currency should reflect that.

    I nominate the French guy that invented the guillotine.

23. If we are supposedly going digital currency, why bother?

24. Colour me disappointed that Grey Owl didn’t make it to the short list.

    Who could be more diverse?

    Who could appeal more to PM Dress-Up?

    Oh well, guess I’ll settle for a early Asian immigrant sniper from WW1

25. Full list is here: https://www.bankofcanada.ca/banknotes/banknoteable-5/nominees/

    Of course the big question is, it’s now 2022, and this list was released in November of 2020, so what is taking the finance minister so long to make a decision?

    1. He had to strike a subcommittee, find a handful of Lieberal dipshits to sit on it w/ him, get a few million in flash money, burn through the cash traveling around the planet w/ his jet set under the guise of “research”, get more cash, add a few subcommittee members, little more traveling, little more cash…

       You know, the usual.

26. Why not Blackie?
    Put Canada’s first black prime minister on it.

    1. Oh, I like that!

27. Maybe the Bank of Canada should be more concerned with the fact that, today’s five-dollar bill is worth less than a 1966 quarter and sinking further fast, than it is about replacing Wilfrid Laurier with some symbol of political correctness.

28. Soooo diverse! Vast majority are Indigenous. No one else (hint: white, hetero males) ever contributed to building this country. Yeah, right. F*ck Trudeau, f*ck this ‘country’, but most especially, f*ck Quebec.

29. Why not Mao?

30. They’re taking a Liberal off of a bank note? Never thought I would see that happen.

31. Henry Morgenthaler…..because we’re a horrible country now and deserve horrible money.

32. Terry Fox certainly a worthy choice, I’m not inclined to disparage anybody who made a genuine contribution to Canada among the rest of the suggestions. But why a choice, just print a run with each worthy candidate and keep some Laurier fives around, got used to the chap’s face even if he was (shudder) a Liberal.

    My face should be on the $3 bank note, the one nobody is supposed to know about.

33. From the short list we have one indigenous female. Are we kidding ourselves that the decision hasn’t already being made and the others are just listed as tokens and required homages to intersectionality?

34. Don Cherry has my vote. But why change it? The fiver and all other bills will be obsolete soon with the Central Bank Digital Currency. Nevertheless I also like Lotta. Used to admire her TV ads when I was growing up. And wearing a nice brown communist or eastern block uniform. What is not to like.

    1. Lotta Hitchmanova? A doctor of the PhD type. A Czech Jew who ran a Canadian Christian charity. She was a truly good person.

       Here’s the ad we all remember. I don’t remember her saying anything but Unitarian Service Committee but this clip says USC. It is now called SeedChange.

35. It won’t be Terry Fox because he is a white male. It won’t be any male no matter what color they are. It won’t be the white woman. The winner is Pitseolak Ashoona. Even though probably 50 people in Canada probably have ever heard of her, she is your winner. Deal with it all you colonialists. Lol.
