"It is our hope that you will view this new logo in the spirit in which it was conceived and packaged by our designer [Mark Roberts of Davis Design Associates]: a path of knowledge leading to an examination of Canadian identity and culture (the maple leaf under the magnifying glass concept) and a subtle question mark forming the frame of the magnifying glass which portrays the quest for knowledge and the ability to find the answers."
