” The Inukshuk conveys our basic human warmth and friendliness as Canadians “

The Inukhsuk (pronounced ih-nook-suuk) mirrors this Canadian spirit of friendship and community.

There are many kinds of Inuksuit (plural for Inukshuk), and they mean different things depending on how and where they are built.

Traditionally, they were used by the Inuit in the north as directional markers. An Inukshuk in the shape of a person signifies safety, hope and friendship.

These stone sculptures were also important for navigation, as a point of reference, as a marker for hunting grounds, or to denote a food cache.

They were visible in snowy conditions, can endure extreme weather and, ultimately, can help people survive. _S.t.
