The maple leaf’s outline mimics Canada’s geographical shape, stretching out to cover the far reaches of Canada. As though travelling from one coast to another, the Canadian Rocky Mountains and a white-tailed deer in the leaf’s left-most point represent the rugged wilderness of the western provinces. Behind the deer, wheat symbolises the grain-growing Canadian prairies. The fishing industry and the Eastern provinces are represented in the right leaf point by a fish, a boat and the famed Peggy’s Point Lighthouse. A partial map of the Northwest Territories and Nunavut – home to many of Canada’s native peoples – dominates the leaf’s middle point, while the Tower of Victory and Peace at the base symbolises the government and the tie that binds all Canadians together. mint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"West Edmonton Coin \u0026 Stamp","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51176345075844,"sku":"141689","price":111.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0967\/3447\/8468\/files\/Celebrating_Canada_reverse_gold_edge_rev2__95020.1503423480.1280.1280.jpg?v=1759537323","url":"https:\/\/www.westedmontoncoinandstamp.com\/products\/2015-10-fine-silver-coin-celebrating-canada","provider":"West Edmonton Coin \u0026 Stamp","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
