| Reverse description | The reverse is dominated by a panoramic composite of four Canadian wilderness landscape vignettes — depicting forests, winter trees, and mountain scenery — printed across the centre and right fields in muted violet and grey intaglio tones, evoking the breadth of the Canadian landscape. At left, a large transparent polymer window contains a lenticular holographic insert with the Canadian coat of arms, a stylised loon, and maple leaf ornamentation in multicolour shifting inks. The commemorative inscription 1867–2017 appears beneath the CANADA wordmark at top centre, and the serial number is repeated twice in the lower portion of the note. |

The 2017 $10 was the first Canadian note issued as a standalone commemorative polymer release rather than as part of a scheduled series replacement. It broke from the sequential rollout of the 2013 Frontier polymer series specifically to mark the 150th anniversary of Confederation, which created an awkward transitional moment: the Frontier $10 featuring John A. Macdonald remained legal tender simultaneously, leaving two very different $10 notes in circulation for several years.
Canadian Bank Note Company printed the entire run in Ottawa — a domestic production arrangement that has been consistent for Canadian issues since the late 1970s.
