In ancient times, a great flood happened that threatened the survival of the Squamish people. The people banded together in canoes and tied their canoes to En cheki—now called Mount Garibaldi—so they would not drift away. An eagle caught a salmon and dropped the fish into the canoes, giving the Squamish people sustenance and ensuring their survival.

This story depicts the power of many working together. It also illustrates the power, connection and interdependence between man and nature.

ABOUT THE ROYAL CANADIAN MINT

The Royal Canadian Mint is known as one of the most reputable mints in the world. The Ottawa Branch of the Royal Mint opened in 1908 and was renamed The Royal Canadian Mint in 1931 when control was transferred to the Canadian government. Their high standards for excellence and quality allowed them to be the first refinery to manufacture 9999 fine gold bullion coins in 1982, as well as the first to reach 99999 fine gold purity in 1998.
