Inukshuk Canada, symbol of the Vancouver Olympics is a popular Canadian Symbol. Canada abounds with man made Inukshuks along highways, lakes and in the wilderness. The Canadian Inukshuk meaning in the Inuit language "In the image of man" are magnificent stone figures originally built to act as guide posts in the far Northern terrain of Canada. Today Inukshuks (pronounced - In-ook-shook) still endure as eternal symbols of leadership, encouraging the importance of friendship and reminding us of our dependence upon one another. Erected to make the way easier and safer for those who follow, an Inukshuk represents safety and nourishment, trust and reassurance.
