French Canadians Busted for Printing Millions of U.S. Dollars

Canadian police on Jan. 31 seized something they had been hunting for years: a printing press capable of making some of the most sophisticated counterfeit American $20 bills investigators had ever seen.

As part of a joint action with the U.S. Secret Service, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police confiscated a press and enough specially watermarked paper to create more than $200 million.
