The Canadian totem is a totem pole in Chapultepec in Mexico City. Designed by Kwakwakaʼwakw carver Mungo Martin, it was given to Mexico by the Canadian government in the 1960s to celebrate the 150th year of Mexican independence. The pole depicts four figures: a Thunderbird, a sea otter, Sisiutl, and Cedar Man. One of the last projects Martin worked on before his death in 1962, the totem pole was carved by Tony Hunt, Henry Hunt, and Eugene Hunt.
