2020 Canada Proof Gold $10 An Inuk and a Qulliq The qulliq on this coin is the hopeful light that burns bright on a dark night — the light that warms the mind, body and spirit. Like the inuksuit landmarks that guide the way, the traditional oil lamp is an important symbol of Inuit culture: it represents hearth and home in the Arctic, where it embodies the strength and care provided by the women who nurture its flames.
