Design:
Canadian artist Cathy Boursey-Sabourin has created an original woodcut design of iconic elements that define Canada's Pacific Coast-an orca and bald eagle, with the rainforest and mountains in the background. The orca has just surfaced to take a breath of air, its back and large dorsal fin still visible above the water. To its left, an eagle descends towards the water, its claws outstretched and ready to grab a fish just below the surface. The orca's fin and the eagle's wings rise upwards, echoing the towering trees and mountains behind them, and the design flows from left to right, like waves that roll in from the Pacific Ocean and crash onto Canada's western shores.
