Abstract

The article discusses controversy in Canada over polymer-based paper currency that has been introduced since 2011. Some have complained that the bills stick together, don't work well in vending machines, and are prone to melt near heat. Others aren't pleased that the maple leaf appearing on the new 20-dollar bill depicts an invasive Norway maple.
