加拿大推出新的20元紙幣,上面印有國王查爾斯三世(King Charles III)的肖像。這是自2022年女王伊麗莎白二世逝世後,逾70年來首次有新君主登上加拿大紙幣。

這張紙幣於周四(9月3日)在加拿大銀行的活動上亮相,央行行長蒂夫·馬克勒姆(Tiff Macklem)稱這是「非常特別的一天」。

這張紙鈔的獨特之處在於其豎版設計。背面印有法國維米嶺(Vimy Ridge)紀念碑圖案,以紀念加拿大在一戰中的角色。

同為英聯邦國家的新西蘭和澳大利亞,已將國王肖像印在硬幣上,不過澳大利亞已表示不會把他印在紙幣上。

澳大利亞並將著手發行新的5澳元紙幣,向「澳大利亞原住民的文化與歷史」致敬,以取代目前印有女王伊麗莎白二世肖像的設計。

自查爾斯登基以來,加拿大是英國以外首個將國王肖像印在紙幣上的英聯邦國家。

加拿大銀行表示,新款紙幣上還繪有花卉與枝葉交織的圖案,「靈感來自國王畢生對環境的奉獻」。

自由黨議員、加拿大稅務局國務秘書韋恩·隆恩(Wayne Long)在揭幕儀式上表示,紙幣上的符號「有力地提醒我們,作為一個國家,我們是誰,以及我們珍視什麼」。

央行補充指,紙幣的部分元素是在諮詢一個原住民顧問委員會後選定的。

這是加拿大發行的第二張直式紙幣。第一張是印有黑人平權運動倡導者維奧拉·戴斯蒙德(Viola Desmond)肖像的10加元紙幣,其設計於2018年獲國際紙幣協會(International Bank Note Society)評選為全球最佳紙幣。

央行行長馬克勒姆表示,新版20加元紙幣將於明年初投入流通。

民調顯示,許多加拿大人認為該國應結束與英國王室的正式聯繫,在法語省份魁北克尤其如此。

但隨著加拿大與美國之間的緊張關係升溫——包括持續的美加貿易戰,以及美國總統特朗普揚言讓加拿大成為「第 51 個州」的言論——王室在加拿大的支持度出現了小幅上升。

加拿大總理卡尼(Mark Carney)今年5月曾邀請國王主持加拿大國會開幕。卡尼當時表示,這次訪問「清楚彰顯了我們國家的主權」。

國王是加拿大的國家元首,由總督路易絲·阿爾伯(Louise Arbour)在當地代表。
