Have you seen the new $50 polymer bill?

Have you seen the new polymer $50 bill? It features Arctic research icebreaker CCGS Amundsen, which was named after Captain Roald Amundsen, an explorer of the polar regions.




From May to December each year, the ship is used as an Arctic research vessel by various Canadian universities and research centres. During the winter months, the CCGC Amundsen is crewed by the Canadian Coast Guard and used for icebreaking service in the Gulf of St. Lawrence
