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

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