The beaver is the emblem of the fur trade and thus of the exploration of Ontario. The books express the importance of education as well as the rich heritage of Franco-Ontarian literature. The hat pins recall the struggle against Regulation 17, which forbade the use of French as a teaching language in Ontario schools from 1912 to 1927, as the mothers of Francophone students used hat pins to protect teachers defying the authorities during a famous incident at Guigues School in Ottawa, in 1916. The miner’s pick and the shovel honour the pioneers who helped discover and develop the mining and agricultural riches of the province. The pine trees and the cultivated ground refer to the natural resources of the land and the entrepreneurial spirit of its inhabitants. | The beaver is the emblem of the fur trade and thus of the exploration of Ontario.
