| Beschrijving keerzijde | Colorized scene depicting a lush maple tree tunnel, rendered in vibrant greens, blues, and purples, evoking a sunlit garden pathway lined with tall maples and flowering perennials. A silhouetted figure stands at the base of the tunnel, framed by dark tree trunks, with a bright garden vista visible beyond. The negative space formed by the canopy's outline suggests the shape of a maple leaf in the upper field. The legend 'CANADA' arcs along the upper rim and the date '2018' appears in the lower field, both in raised white-enameled Latin characters. The engraver's initials 'JP' appear to the right within the design. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Part of the RCM's ongoing "Tunnel of Time" series, this piece commemorates the Arce Tunnel — an unlikely piece of Canadian wartime engineering built during World War II as part of the Canol Project, a joint U.S.-Canadian effort to move crude oil from Norman Wells in the Northwest Territories to a refinery in Whitehorse. The project cost over $130 million USD and was largely deemed a failure within two years of completion, abandoned in 1945 after producing oil for barely a single season.
