A Finale For The Museum

 Departing from the Canadian History Hall, we pass more of the images displayed on the walls of the country, with white overlay on a reflective surface to create the respective images. This is a train crossing in the Rocky Mountains of British Columbia.

Terry Fox inspired the country with his Marathon of Hope to raise money for cancer research, and was cut down by the very disease that had taken his leg. Monuments to him are found in the country, including in Newfoundland and Labrador, where he started his run.

The Northwest Territories has their own distinctive shape for their license plates.

Province House is in Prince Edward Island.

While Cape Spear is found in Newfoundland and Labrador.

Here we have the Tuktoyaktuk DEW Line site in the Northwest Territories, part of the defensive measures of the Cold War.

The Hartland Covered Bridge in New Brunswick is the world's longest covered bridge.

The Chateau Frontenac is an iconic hotel in Quebec City.

Grand Pre is a national historic site in Nova Scotia that tells the story of the Acadian culture.

The Confederation Bridge links New Brunswick to Prince Edward Island.

L'Anse aux Meadows is in the northern part of the island of Newfoundland, where Vikings established a settlement a thousand years ago. Today, recreated buildings are established at the place, near the original excavations.

My last of these are powow dancers, a vital part of indigenous cultures.

Out of the corridor, I came face to face with the plaster cast version of Chief Of The Undersea World, by Bill Reid, depicting a killer whale in a way that shows his Haida roots.

And one more look over the Grand Hall.

I finish with this view outside towards the exhibition wing from close by the curatorial wing. I hope you've enjoyed this tour of the Canadian Museum of History.
