Symbols of Canada

Which five symbols do you feel best represent Canada?

  1. I believe that the five symbols of canada are the nickel because on the nickel there is the beaver and the beaver is the national animal of canada. I also think the hockey stick because hockey is the main winter sport. The maple leaf because it is on our canadian flag. I also think that red and white would work because it is on our flag. And lacrosse because it turns out that it is our national summer sport.

  2. I think the 5 symbols of Canada are:
    The maple leaf: the maple leaf has been the biggest symbol of Canada since the 1700s.
    Beavers, which also appear on our nickels has also been a huge symbol for Canada since the first explorers were around, they used them for in the fur trade.
    The Canadian colours: red and white are the official colours of Canada.
    The coat of arms: the coat of arms were given to Canada by King George in the 1920s. It has our moto "A Mari usque ad Mare" meaning form seas to seas on it.
    The great seal of Canada: the great seal of Canada is used on all state documents.

  3. I think the five symbols that best describe Canada would be the beaver because it is Canada's national animal, the maple leaf because it is on our flag so it is recognized as Canadian, the multiculturalism symbol because we have a lot of immagrants in Canada, the hockey stick because it is Canada's number one winter sport, and lacrosse because it is Canada's number one summer sport.

  5. 1.The maple leaf would be a good repersentaion of Canada becasue it is on the Canadian flag and repersents freedom, pride and joy!
    2.The beaver would be another good repersentaion of Canada because it shows one of Canadians many animals and it can also be the sigh of fair trade.
    3.The buffalo is a great repersentaion of strength, freedom and power in my opinion. It shows that you can be free and powerful at the same time!
    4.Hockey would be a good symbol for Canada because it is a national sport for Canada in the winter.
    5. Lacrosse is the national sport for Canada in the summer so it is a great repersentaion to Canada to me!

  6. 1.The beaver is a good representation of Canada because it shoes fare trading of the settlers and the strength of the nation. 2. A another great Canadian sibyl is the Canadian goose. It shoes the strength in the wins of Canada and great food. 3. The Canadian glaciers are a sibyl of beauty and prosperity. 4. Tim Horton’s symbolises Canada in it’s great coffee and donuts. 5. RCMP symbolises Canada for keeping the peas and helping any one in trouble.

  9. in my opinion the main five symbols of Canada are...
    The Beaver because it its our national animal and if you wait long enough by a river, one is sure to pass by!
    The hockey puck and stick is another great synbol because Canadian evented the sport of hockey and we love it!
    The maple leaf is one of ther symbols as well. Since it is on our flag and in our trees i think it is one of the greater symbols.
    The canadian penny is a great symbol because it has the maple leaf on. The nickel is pretty special too, because it carries the beaver on one of its sides.
    Last but not least i think the colors red and white are a great symbol of Canada. In my opinion the red stands for the natives to were found on the land when the European came and the white is the European!

  10. I think that the five symbols that best identify canada are:

    -The Maple Leaf
    -The Beaver
    -Hockey
    -Tim Hortons
    -Lacrosse

    I think the maple leaf represents Canada because, when somebody see's a maple leaf they instantly think of Canada no matter where you live.

    The beaver is Canada's national animal therefor it is a symbol of Canada.

    Hockey is known as Canada's game and that is why I believe Hockey is a symbol.

    Almost eery Canadian eats at a Tim Hortons, its just how it is. Some adults get Coffee there everyday, and children love the donuts.

    Lacrosse is canada's national sport, it is a game that requires great strength to play and that is why I think it is a symbol of Canada.

    Yours truly, Reinhart.
