There is much about Canada to inspire our rich collection of national symbols: we are a country with welcomed cultural diversity, we have four distinct seasons, and we are blessed with stunning landscapes of prairies, forests, mountains, rivers, and lakes. Historical events and our natural heritage have inspired the most famous of our symbols.

Perhaps the most recognizable symbol today is the maple leaf, just like the one that adorns the Canadian flag. The maple leaf image was adopted widely in the eighteenth century and has appeared on the uniforms and insignias of the Canadian military since 1850. All the grave stones of soldiers who have died in combat and are buried overseas or in Canada are engraved with a maple leaf.

The Canadian identity is also partly defined by our history with the British monarchy, highlighted by the image of Queen Elizabeth II on our twenty-dollar bills. Indeed, symbols of the British monarchy make our Canadian identity very distinctive when compared with that Another important symbol is the beaver. of the United States. Other distinguishing This animal’s image was closely linked traits are the RCMP and with the Hudson’s Bay Company many bilingualism. centuries ago, when Europeans first made their way inland. The beaver was later adopted as the logo of the Canadian Pacific Railway and is used today by many other groups and associations across Canada. The image of the beaver is engraved on the five-cent coin, and it appears on the coats of arms of Saskatchewan and Alberta as well as some cities, including Toronto.
