Canadiana - The Inuit
Symbolism of the flag
The colours, blue and gold, are the ones preferred by the Nunavut Implementation Commissioners to symbolize the riches of the land, sea and sky. Red is a reference to Canada.
The inuksuk symbolizes the stone monuments which guide the people on the land and mark sacred and other special places.
The star is the Niqirtsuituq, the North Star and the traditional guide for navigation and more broadly, forever remains unchanged as the leadership of the elders in the community.
