| Beschrijving voorzijde | The obverse is dominated by a red and yellow multicolour underprint with a vertical holographic stripe at left. The Coat of Arms of Canada and the bilingual issuer inscription appear at left, while an intaglio portrait of William Lyon Mackenzie King — Prime Minister of Canada during 1921–1930 and 1935–1948 — occupies the right-centre area, accompanied by a watermark of his likeness. A vignette of the Peace Tower in Ottawa is rendered in the centre, flanked by the note's denomination numeral '50', a Canadian flag above the bilingual legend, and the face value inscription beneath. |

| Opmerkingen |
The BC-65 series $50 was a joint production between BA International and Canadian Bank Note Company — an unusual arrangement that reflected BA International's declining capacity in its final years before the firm ceased operations in 2012, ending over 140 years of Canadian banknote printing. Jorge Peral, a Cuban-born designer who joined the Bank of Canada's in-house team, was responsible for the Canadian Journey series across multiple denominations.
The hologram strip on this issue caused persistent complaints from retailers about verification difficulty under certain lighting conditions — a known practical problem with the series that accelerated the Bank of Canada's move toward polymer substrates, which arrived with the Frontier series beginning in 2011.
