The Canoe
“The canoe has become as much a part of the Canadian visual lexicon as the Canada goose, the beaver and the maple leaf,” says artist Jason Bouwman, explaining his design for this pure silver commemorative coin.
“This design shows a young person enjoying a recreational outing. The boy breaks from paddling to dip his hand in the water...and touches the past - the reflection reveals an early native paddler (or voyageur) in a traditional birch-bark canoe as it also appears on the early silver dollar of 1935. This concept is both intimate and sentimental and is striking in its unique composition. It tells a story of respecting our ancestry and sharing a love of this land.”
