Default Canadian money to become plastic, coins will be steel next year

The Canadian federal government announced in its budget that paper
Canadian currency will become plastic and have new security features
next year. Its $2 and $1 coins will also receive new changes.

Yeah, I saw on another group where they said that the $10 and $20
bills would be first, then the $50 and $100 later on, BUT there was NO
mention of them doing this to their $5 bills, which leads some of us
to believe that a Canadian $5 coin might not be too far off.
Otherwise, you'd think that they would plan more durable $5 bills
first as they wear out quicker than $10s ans $20.
