This is Canada's National Aboriginal Veterans Monument, which was "raised in sacred and everlasting honour of the contributions of all Aboriginal Canadians in war and peacekeeping operations".
Located in Ottawa, Ontario, this monument was sculpted by Lloyd Pinay of the Peepeekisis First Nation in Saskatchewan. To learn more about this impressive statue, and how Pinay expresses the idea that the desire for peace often lies at the root of war, click here.
