Former Prime Minister Sir Wilfrid Laurier lives on as a program in the 1982 Disney film Tron. Torontoist reader Brent created these "enhanced" bank notes.

Contrary to popular belief, defacing currency is not illegal in Canada. For defaced currency from elsewhere in the world, check out the defaced presidents Flickr pool.

"Spend More, Live Less"

Wow, even the money in Toronto is consumed by the leftist tendency to loath consumerism.

I've always preferred the Spock five dollar bill over the Tron one.

this is just hilarious....I loved the laugh - and the flickr pool to boot!

Does anyone else remember Where's Willy, where Canadian $5 bills were tracked? http://www.whereswilly.com/

I want to actually see one in person!

The top one looks more like Leonard Cohen as Tron.

I would gladly pay thousands of dollars for one of these fine works of art.
