Maple Leaf

The Maple Leaf has symbolized the land and the people of Canada since recorded history. In 1965, the maple leaf became the official emblem of Canada, representing the five common values shared by all Canadian: Freedom, Justice, Peace, Respect and Tolerance.

Hummingbird

Joyful messengers who represent peace, affection, and good fortune. The Hummingbird is a living rainbow that captures the sunlight and turns it into a jewel on its wings, signifying love, beauty and healing. This tiny bird is also called "Sah Sen" and is considered good luck, especially if seen before a major event.
