It is a symbol that our country takes great pride in, and itis used to express our identity to the rest of the world. Above the leaf, there are rays of varying colour that represent the diversity as well as unity of our country. These rays are also the ligt of the future and the milestones in time that Canada will come to ‘experience, The waves on the left and right side of the Canadian Maple Leaf symbolize the passage of time from the moment Canada became a confederation in 1867, to today. At the bottom of the logo | incorporated Aboriginal design, tying back to the roots of Canadian people, and the country's history. The overall design is cheerfully celebratory, and very proudly Canadian. ‘0000081867 - 2017 #20 27166732 The maple leaf has long being a symbol of Canada. A symbol that lives in the hearts of Canadian people every day and makes each of us, as diverse as we are, a part of it. So a Canada formed by its people is represented by a large maple leaf symbol formed by smaller ones. Not ones structured like the one in our flag, but each different in colour and shape, yet equally important to form the whole. As the autumn leaves tumble to the ground, each going its own way, they form the spectacle of the fall, only made possible by the diversity of its components. Each proud to be part of something bigger. ‘000009a CANADA 150 1867-2017 CANADA 150 1867-2017 CANADA 150 1967-2017 #26 2944745 The maple leaf is the nation’s most iconic symbol, and | used subtle design choices to represent Canada and its Confederation. The base of the leaf is made up of 4 diamonds (diamonds are celebratory gems), with nine more expanding outwards from them, meant to represent the four provinces that formed the Confederacy in 1867 eventually growing to the 13 provinces and territories. The repeated shape is meant to create a sense of unity, and the 13 shapes forming the leaf represents our togetherness as a country. In the colored iterations, the center 4 diamonds are the similar in color. From left to right, similar colors are used in a row if more than one joined Canada in the same year. The multi-colored iteration gives a feeling of diversity while the red one shows pride and unity. ‘000010Se CANADA 1867-2017 150 #40 29111163, My submission is a visual representation of the 1867 process of Canadian Confederation. The design plays on the idea of the many long roads (both literal and figurative) which were joined together to form ‘our great nation. Each road arrives at the same focal point, the signing of our constitution. The six leaf ‘segments represent the diverse cultures, ethnicities, ideologies, landscapes and climates that exist together in the true North and define Canada asa nation.

The design is a collection of unique pieces which complement each other, symbolizing the many contributors who collectively built Canada, paying homage to the native population, the settlers over decades of immigration and nature - one of this country's greatest influences. The space in between these pieces are the ‘rivers’ that simultaneously protect and bring together the diverse cultures, paying tribute to Canada’s rich environment and pointing towards unity and a brighter and peaceful future.

Here, in place of a heart, a bright red maple leaf declares who we are; instead of "Mom", the ribbons wrapped around it proclaim the rich heritage of our motherland. The ribbons trail away at both the top and bottom, because Canada's history - before and after 1867 - and its future, yet to be written, are just parts of the story we all carry within us. Now, as we celebrate 150 years of official nationhood, we are given yet another opportunity to proclaim how thankful we are for our neighbours, native land, and all we have built and have yet to build.

When I reflected on significant events in Canadian history, too many came to mind to include in a cohesive, 2 coloured logo. Since | wasn’t going to be focusing on a specific historic event | decided to focus on the idea of relationships. As a Canadian citizen | have a strong and proud relationship with my country as well as my loved ones who live all across Canada. To represent connectivity in a visual way | used postage. At the top of my design isa basic version of aspects from original Canadian postage stamps, including the crown and the word “CANADA”. The bottom part of the logo includes a more modern scalloped edge of the postage stamps we are used to today, ‘000087#59 29003656 This logo portrays Canada and its 150th anniversary by showing Canada's vast landscape with some of the major cities well known symbols/landmarks. Like in BC there is the Rockies, Alberta/Calgary there is, the Calgary Tower, Saskatchewan & Manitoba has wheat growing throughout, Ontario is the Parliament Buildings, Quebec has its vast forests and the east coast is all resembled by a lighthouse. Also in the background it shows all the provinces/territories to show what Canada looks like now after all these years. ‘000088#60 29454546 Diversity Canada is a country diverse in history, landscape and culture. Our incredible landscape has been preserved by a series of National Parks across the country including Gros Morne and Kluane. The mountain ranges along the west coast are breathtaking. Small fishing hamlets along the Pacific and Atlantic have transcended time, charming and timeless. Many world class cities bustle with celebrations and opportunities. But it is in our people that our diversification shines. Inuit and Natives walked across the Bering Strait, settling across North ‘America, giving our continent and our government its beginning. The Vikings in Newfoundland, the French in Acadia and Quebec, the Polish in the Prairies, United Empire Loyalists in Ontario, and the Chinese and Japanese in British Columbia gave us our beginning. Over the last 150 years, the people from over 150 countries and this incredible landscape they call home, have joined to become one, Canada. ‘000089186772017 #61 29045710 This logo was inspired by the poem “Dominion Day”, by Agnes Machar, one of Canada’s first female writers. The five “heads” of the maple leaf represent Canada’s major regions as well as the character of her people. The waterfalls represent Central Canada’s most famous landmark and is the embodiment of strength in the face of adversity. The mountains represent the ‘majestic West coast and stand as a testament to our resilience, to those who said our new ration would fail. The Northern “head” honours our aboriginal countrymen; the sun symbolizes our tradition of warmth and hospitality. The rolling fields of the Prairies illustrate wealth and endless opportunity. The seas that straddle the Maritime Provinces signify adaptability and readiness to change. The leaf itself is a composite of different shapes and colours, just like the human fabric of our great nation. 150 years of confederation have bound us as a People - strong, proud, and free. ‘000090ADA Ase 1867-2017 s967-20/> CANADA 150 #62 29071064 Je crois que l'utilisation de la feuille d'érable rouge est incontournable, puisqu'elle est notre embléme national.

C'est pourquoi, une fois image retournée, la feuille se transforme en un aigle en plein vol, le regard vers l'avenir.

The colours of the Maple Leaf changing from green to red are meant to signify the passage of time, as well as to illustrate how Canada has progressed from a young country to the proud Nation it, is today.

This tree is a metaphorical representation of unity and longevity. The unity of all the leaves attached to that tree and all connected through branches that eventually lead to the trunk, which is designed to resemble a single citizen of Canada in celebration.

This mosaic of stamps illustrates the many influences upon our identities. In the last 150 years, our society has flourished and developed, and along with it, the ways in which we identify ourselves, As Canadians, we pride ourselves in the multi-faceted nature of our cultural, social, and civic institutions, and my entry displays just that. There are aspects of my entry to which anyone may relate, be it the Metis, the RCMP, or hockey players!

The Vimy Ridge War Memorial commemorates our fallen war heroes and honours the sacrifices they made for our freedom. Since confederation in 1867, Canada has been influenced by heroes such as Terry Fox and his Marathon of Hope and the Canadian men’s and women's hockey teams who unified our nation in spectacular fashion.

The Blue arc in my logo represents the three oceans that touch our beautiful nation. Below this arc there are 13 circles, one for each province and territory. Each of the circles bear a different colour, each of which represent either the geography of our land or the resources our land provides us. For example, the Pink circle represents Pacific Salmon, whereas the Red circle represents Atlantic Lobster. The different. colours of the circles are also representative of the diversity of peoples and cultures. ‘0001421570 @O0H0000000600 6 e207 #114 29057225 The logo shows how Canada began as a small nation (population wise), and how it started out. It started as somewhat unknown, unlike countries like the UK or the US. This is represented by 13 circles (representing the 13 Provinces and Territories) starting at black, and gradually becoming lighter shades of red all the way up to the "Canada Red,” representing the Canada we know today. At the end of the line is a Maple Leaf, representing Canada as a whole. In the circles are the letters forming the phrase "Canada 150." On the left side of the line is 1867, representing the year of Confederation, and on the other end is 2017, representing the 150th year since Confederation. 000143#115 29093169 This logo represents a unified nation with a diverse heritage. Unifying all of the elements are two maple leafs, one in the negative space and one larger leaf in colour signifying growth and a bright future. The logo is capped with our country's iconic Canadian Parliament expressing both strength and direction, pointing true north. In tribute to the Centennial logo, there are thirteen elements, representing our thirteen provinces and territories. Also, commemorating the logo for Canada’s 125th anniversary, there are three distinct sections, which unite to create a maple leaf. This represents the three British colonies that formed Canada on Confederation. Finally, the various colours represent the bold and diverse multiculturalism of Canada and are based off of the colours in Stuart Ash’s Centennial logo. The bright explosion looks like fireworks, expressing a celebration of the 150th anniversary. The font used is Gibson, created by Canadian type designer Rod McDonald. 000144#116 29457690 This logo portrays enthusiasm for Canada's 150th anniversary of Confederation while remaining appealing and versatile as a logo. Through a few ways the logo can show enthusiasm and energy. The 150 in the logo is extending upwards, and the word Canada is rising to the right, as one reads from left to right. Then there is the general energy involved with the leaf, which is not the usual geometric design. Although it has not been reduced to geometric shapes its fluid ‘and natural, all the while conveying the necessary excitement. It all balances out, the fluidity of the leaf, and then the general square composition of the entire logo, making it very simple, appealing, and versatile. 000145#117 29assa14 For my logo, | chose to display a train composed of four different compartments moving through a diverse landscape of mountains, a river, and hills. The four train compartments signify the intial four Canadian provinces after Confederation. The three, high mountain peaks signify the three territories as the territories are situated above the ten provinces longitudinally and the ten wheels the train is, stationed on each serve as a Canadian province. The train is moving towards the date 2017 on a set of railroad tracks that serve as a timeline, but they also span from 1867 because at the beginning of the 1870's Sir John A. MacDonald desired a railway (now known as the Canadian Pacific Railway) that could span from the West coast to the East coast of Canada. This is of course why the train is moving through hills, a river, and mountains in my logo; so that Canada’s landscape can be displayed. 000148#118 29454834 ‘My simplistic design uses the color of the Canadian flag. It’s circular shape makes it easy to use as a logo in many different layouts. | have used symbols, such as the beaver and the maple leaf, which are a very well known as Canadian. 000147#119 29010752 This design celebrates and acknowledges the history of Canada for 150 years. The experiences and historical moments from heart felt loss to overwhelming joy continue to strengthen Canadians today. The railroad bordering the edges of the maple leaf represents the educated, dedicated and hardworking people of Canada. The hockey sticks showcase the talent of those that strive for new opportunities and success. The feathers symbolize respect, honour and. tradition. The colours represent the Earth’s beauty and nourishment it provides us. 000148Canada 150 1897-2017 #120 27175125, Mon logo représente la diversité du Canada, par tous les fragments de différents tons de rouges qui se rassemblent en un méme élément; 'emblématique feuille d'érable.

Ce logo est ma facon de représenter le canada et ce qui est important pour moi (000150#122 29452581 chose this design for Canada’s 150th celebration of Confederation (1867-2017) because it represents the unity and history of Canada. The Maple Leaf takes the central stage in my design since it is an emblem of Canada that is known worldwide and evokes a sense of pride from all Canadians. The design is ringed by a circle of people linked via hands, a theme that is replicated at the base of the Maple Leaf demonstrating the diversity of Canada as well as our strength and harmony as a country. Behind the Maple Leaf are fireworks, demonstrating that as a whole, no matter what race, religion, social status, etc. all Canadians are celebrating the rich history and bright future of our nation. Since 1867 a key reason why Canada has managed to remain a strong country is because of the bonds between all Canadians, thus my design emphasizes community. 000151= S| a S| 5 a {[Screen capture: disregard frame]] #123 28615500 This is a simple logo with two halves. The first is the half maple leaf with the year of confederation to the year of the present, the portrays the past, what we've already been through. The other half, where the Canada150 is and without the other half maple leaf represents the future, what is to come for Canadians. The colours used, red and white, are Canada's colours so in true reflection for this canadian symbol felt it only appropriate to use Red and White. This logo also uses Canada's main symbol, the maple leaf, as its main focal point. 000152#124 28856282 This logo greatly reflects Canada as a nation united through pride and diversity. Through many famous Canadian landmarks, including the CN Tower, The Skylon Tower, Parliament, an Inukshuk, and the Confederation Bridge, all show how far Canada has come and how much we have achieved as a nation today. These important landmarks represent Canada and provide immediate association to our country. Much like the union and development of the Canadian confederation, all of these landmarks are shown to connect with each other, representing how ‘our provinces are united and joined; we are one. The landmarks also do well to reflect diversity within our nation as they come from different areas of Canada, mirroring Canada's diverse Union. The Canadian flag among the background represents how Canada is metaphorically behind us; being our identity and background. Finally the beaver above the zero, being our national animal, shows that we are looking toward the future. 000153#125 29456945, Voici ma proposition pour le logo du 150e anniversaire de la Confédération. La rose des vents fait d’abord référence a la situation géographique qui caractérise et définit a la fois notre pays. Elle fait aussi référence aux cartes tracées a la main, cartes qui n’ont cessé d'évoluer a la mesure que s’ajoutaient les kilometres & son vaste territoire. La feuille d’érable est constituée de formes aux dimensions et aux couleurs diverses. Elle symbolise la diversité de race, de religion et de culture des individus qui constituent notre nation. La typographie a été choisie pour son aspect calligraphique, autre regard vers le passé, et tout comme Veffet «fait a la main» se veut un rappel du caractére historique de la féte qui s’en vient, ce traitement confére aussi au logo un aura d’authenticité.

The maple leaf balloon shows the pride of the Canadians as we celebrate Canada’s 150 years. The abstract quality of the leaf is formed through a series of triangles to reflect unity, diversity and the foundation of Canadian culture: multiculturalism. The small arch of triangles at the bottom of the balloon are a representation of the 3 colonies that first came together in 1867. They are positioned there to show that without this as the foundation, there wouldn't be the Canada we have today. Triangles were used because it reflects the 3 colonies that came together, and it’s, a shape that's strong in nature when put together. This strength is what Canada is and continues to strive for, as the nation continues to evolve. 000158#128 29092388 In the logo | designed and sketched for Canada’s 150 year anniversary, | included the beautiful Rocky Mountains because of their significance to Canada's landscape and the diversity they bring to the West coast. | also thought it was important to add the amazing architecture of the parliament building in Ottawa, as itis quite significant within our government. Since maple syrup is a very prominent Canadian symbol | decided to add a maple forest with sap buckets to symbolize the lifestyle of many in Canada's East. For the middle i included a marshland pond and the ever amazing beaver, who helps to maintain the diversity of life in this beautiful country by changing the way waterways flow with it's never ending hard work and dedication.

Its a stylized polygonal version of the maple leaf, representing Canada's movement towards modernity, while the fonts have an aged look, a throwback to the founding of our nation. 000158#130 28480455 This logo represents Canada with its most meaningful symbol: the maple leaf. From far and wide our country is recognized by the strong, clear, and friendly leaf. The three points of the leaf’s top could represent the three British colonies that became four Canadian provinces on July 1, 1867. The ‘150’, displayed in gold, represents not only our country's standard for greatness, but also celebration as we prepare for this anniversary. The text used for ‘1867’ is a font that looks older, as if it came straight off the page of the confederation’s act. In contrast, 2017’ js a font that looks very modern. This shows the transition through time as ever changing, but still holding strong with the sense of unity that the confederation has given us. 000159#131 28801762 Canada isa very large place with many different types of people from all different backgrounds.

The graininess bringing it back, like an old photograph. The old style maple leaf, resembling some of the very first logo designs on the Toronto Maple Leafs hockey jerseys. The leaf, of course, is also our national symbol and has been since the confederation of Canada and nearly a hundred years later became a part of the Canadian flag.

The simple outline of the Canadian leaf represents the love and patriotism running through all Canadians. Since 1867, the Canadian flag has represented strength and freedom. Through the valleys and peaks of our history, we have demonstrated our true colors.

Those images represent diversity of Canada. People from six continents come over the five oceans to Canada. Canada grows with them in beautiful harmony, The highest center part of the maple leaf symbolizes the crown of Sovereign. The maple leaf also symbolizes rising sun.

Apart, they represent the land bound by two oceans. The large triangle appears first as an ice-capped mountain, but also exemplifies a First Nations tipi, symbolizing shelter and protection. The tree branch symbolizes industry, creation and strength; the three maple leaves are symbolic of the three colonies of Confederation, and their colours stand for multi-cultural diversity. The 13 rays of sunlight on the horizon embody Canada’s 10 provinces and three territories, as well, agriculture, life and growth.

With the help of the word "Canada" written against the "1", the famous Maple Leaf symbol found in the fiag against the "0", and the years "1867-2017" against the symbol, the logo greatly symbolizes and represents this big part of in Canadian history. 000168IS622017 #140 28432171 Strength, unity and pride inspired my design. Helvetica Bold, an incredibly legible and versatile sans-serif typeface is my foundation; this powerful font represents the significant strength of our nation worldwide. The text is separated into triads, representing the three colonies that, united to form the Canadian Confederacy in 1867. By adjusting the kerning and line spacing of the text, the letters evolve into a higher-powered form. This reflects the fusion of our various ethnicities and cultures into a unified country that builds upon its diversity. The organic movement in Canadian aboriginal art inspired the fluidity of the design’s red tones and contributes to the creation of harmony within the negative-space outline of the maple leaf —an iconic symbol of Canadian pride. Another maple leaf is embedded in the zero of 150. Understated and rising upwards, it emphasizes the incredible growth of our nation over 150 years and its promising future 000169#141 28812436 My entry combines Canada's famous landmarks, animals, values, and symbols, and places them around a clock to emphasize the country's 150th anniversary of Confederation.

Above the large maple leaf are two small leaves, as though to express the image of them being carried upon its shoulders. It symbolizes support. The fireworks above “Canada” represent the celebration that's brought about with the 150th Anniversary of Confederation. Upon the parliament's clock isthe time 7:01; a time relevant to the date Canada officially became a nation: the seventh month of the first day.
