When the RAM started the bimetal $5 series in the nineties I thought they were moving towards a circulating $5 bimetal coin. The polymer banknotes have such a long circulating life that I guess this won't occur in the near future.

It's a matter of opinion whether the new security features introduced in 2012 have enhanced the design: http://www.mint.ca/store/mint/about-the-mint/the-new-2-coin-6800006#.U55VD_m2iSo
