Bank of Canada Bans "Asian looking woman" On $100 bill

What do you guys think?

BoC purges image of Asian-looking woman from $100 banknotes | CTVNews

I say its stupid for them do have even considered it... I dont think it is possible to make a neutrally ethnic looking person, and in the article I think it hits home with

""You're erasing all of us," he said from Toronto. "Your default then is an image with Caucasian features.""

I actually had a upclose look and analysis of the new 100 dollar bill with my family. We determined that it was pretty cool of Canada to put scientific research as a trait of the country by putting it on our money.

Not once did we notice the race of the researcher...
