| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse features a boldly rendered inukshuk — the traditional Inuit stone landmark — depicted in selective gold plating contrasted against an unplated silver-finish central figure, creating a striking two-tone visual effect. The inukshuk stands prominently in the centre of the field, set against a panoramic Arctic landscape of open water, distant rocky cliffs, and a stylised aurora borealis or sunburst radiating across the upper field. The engraver's initials TB appear to the lower left of the central design. The legend CANADA arcs along the upper rim, the denomination 20 DOLLARS is inscribed along the lower rim, and the date 2018 appears to the right of the design. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The inukshuk became internationally recognized after serving as the central symbol of the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics, an event that prompted significant debate among Indigenous communities — particularly Inuit leaders, who noted that the inukshuk is specifically an Inuit cultural marker, not a pan-Indigenous symbol, and objected to its appropriation as a national emblem. That controversy has never fully resolved.
The Royal Canadian Mint's .9999 fine silver with gold plating on collector issues of this period reflects a production approach the mint leaned on heavily through the late 2010s to justify premium pricing on a crowded commemorative market.
