In April, the sucker fish returns to spawn after travelling to the spirit realm to receive cleansing techniques for this world. As it swims through the water, it purifies a path for the spirits and cleanses the water beings. As life bursts forth within the stream and along its banks, we are reminded that we are but partners in this experience called life—that the harmony within the stream can also exist within ourselves. Once we discover this and are healed, we can bring healing to others through our peaceful presence and actions.

Design:
Algonquin artist Frank Polson has created a captivating image of a full moon filling the sky as it sits low on the horizon behind a leafless tree. To the left, a sucker fish swims downward, away from the viewer, along the edge of the coin. A trail of bubbles forms in the wake of its tail as the fish turns towards the tree on the right. The use of bold lines, and the insertion of vivid colour within black areas as if to reveal what lies within, is a signature design element in woodland art.

Packaging:
Your coin is encapsulated and presented in a Royal Canadian Mint-branded maroon clamshell with a graphic beauty box.
