Miss Canada

Feeling extra proud to be Canadian these days, et voilà Miss Canada was born...

Born in 1867, Miss Canada’s skin, mottled with age still glistens with youth. She is dressed in waterfalls, lakes, forests and mountains and is ‘armed’ by bountiful water sources and protected fisheries. She is proudly and appropriately tattooed with Canada’s motto “ A MARI USQUE AD MARE” which translates “FROM SEA TO SEA”.

As a reminder of her young heritage, miniature ghosts of her past rest upon her bosom. Prominently above her neck, a peace dove reflects an optimistic future amid her diverse, tolerant population and jewelled wealth. Most significantly, the Canadian flag, embedded on her neck, pridefully screams “MADE IN CANADA”!
