This totem pole, carved by three Kwakiutl Indian carvers from a log of western red cedar, is a gift to the 1969 Canada Games Society on the occasion of the first Canadian Summer Games, held in the twin cities of Halifax and Dartmouth, Nova Scotia.
The four crest figures — Thunderbird, Killer Whale, Sea Otter and a Kwakiutl Chief — incorporate elements from stories that are typical of British Columbia.
Presented by the Province of British Columbia and the British Columbia Centennial '71 Committee, August, 1969.
