East Gwillimbury, Ontario

Canadian Iconography:  Canadians are proud of nothing if not hockey, but lift your eyes to the heavens (as we all do when someone dies) and you will see something else that makes Canada Canada: a celebration in the sky, the aurora borealis, the Northern Lights. If you need evidence that the colorful sashes have become iconic, just look at one of Canada's commemorative coins (which also features an inuksuk). Queensville Cemetery. [2010]
