| Beschrijving keerzijde | A poignant vignette depicting a young boy, approximately five years of age, breaking free from his mother's grasp to run toward his uniformed father, who marches away to war as part of a column of soldiers. The composition commemorates the iconic 1940 photograph taken in New Westminster, British Columbia, capturing the emotional farewell between a soldier and his family. The word REMEMBER arcs prominently across the upper field, with the date 2014 and the word SOUVENIR inscribed in the lower portion of the design. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
This issue commemorates one of the most reproduced Canadian photographs of the Second World War — Claude Dettloff's October 1940 image of five-year-old Warren "Whitey" Bernard breaking from the crowd to chase his father's regiment down Columbia Street in New Westminster, British Columbia. The father, Jack Bernard, was permitted to briefly leave formation to say goodbye. The photograph ran globally and became a significant recruitment and morale image for the Allied war effort.
The colourized toonie format was a relatively new production technique for the RCM at the time of issue, applied selectively to commemorative bimetallics beginning in the early 2010s.
