Bluenose: In 1921, Atlantic Canadians built one of the finest racing and fishing vessels in Canadian history, the Bluenose. Known for its speed, and almost unbeatable in a race, the shipfirst appeared on the ten-cent piece in 1937.
Beaver: The beaver is Canada's national animal. Highly soughtafter for its rich fur in the 17th and 18th centuries, it was the mainstay of the colonial economy for centuries. Today, the beaver is revered as a symbol of hard work and perseverance.
