The Boreal Forest, celebrated through this fine silver collectable coin, is a vast woodland that circumvents the globe across the Northern Hemisphere, home to thousands of species of flora and fauna. It acts as a critical source of life-giving oxygen and a major filter for absorbing carbon dioxide. In fact, Canada's boreal forest stores more carbon than any other terrestrial ecosystem on earth. The design is based on traditional Kwakwaka’wakw and Tlingit forms.
