More importantly, why is Gene Wilder on the ten dollar bill?
There may be a problem with this: Is defacing money (even with no intent of fraud) illegal in Canada?
(As far as I can tell, it isn’t in the U.S., despite my being taught to the contrary. I was very alarmed when I’d seen those penny-pressing machines.

Coincidence indeed, I came across that strip just the other day hitting random and wondered what it was all about. I thought the joke was something to do with the fellow being bald and somehow ending up fully thatched on the bank note.
Not as perplexing as the average xkcd strip though.
I have an idea - all us Canadian Doper should Spock our fives and put a little SDMB on it as a signature.
yeah this bill looks pretty old. 1990 something:
