Ann Meekitjuk Hanson Arms (Canada) Vinyl Decal: A Visual Story

This striking vinyl decal presents the official coat of arms granted to Ann Meekitjuk Hanson by the Canadian Heraldic Authority. The design is rich with symbolism, offering a visual journey through Inuit culture and personal history.

The Shield: A Symbol of Warmth and Tradition

The central element of the design is the shield, featuring a deep purple background. At its heart lies a silver (Argent) qulliq, an Inuit seal-oil lamp, with golden (Or) flames. This powerful imagery represents warmth, light, and the enduring traditions of the Inuit people, historically tended by women.

The Crest: Flight and Floral Emblems

Above the shield, the crest showcases a rock ptarmigan, Nunavut's official bird, with wings outstretched. The ptarmigan emerges from five purple saxifrage flowers, Nunavut's floral emblem, symbolizing Hanson's five daughters. This crest also hints at the connection to the Hanson family's heritage, linking it to the "martlet crest" in the U.S.

The Supporters: Guardians of the Arctic Realm

Flanking the shield are two supporters: on the left, Sedna (Nuliajuq), a sea ruler in Inuit mythology, adorned in gold and with a white tail, and on the right, a ring seal in its natural colors. These figures stand on a compartment of stylized tundra and wavy water (purple and white), representing the Arctic landscape and seas, a reminder of the environment.

The Motto: A Call to Unity

The motto, "CO‑OPERATION ENHANCES PEACE," is inscribed in both English and Inuktitut. It echoes the core values of the Inuit people.

Glossy kiss-cut vinyl stickers made for smooth, indoor surfaces — laptops, journals, mirrors, and other finished items. Crisp edges, vivid color, strong hold, and not waterproof.

What “kiss-cut” means: the blade cuts the vinyl layer into the exact shape while leaving the backing liner whole, so pieces separate cleanly and lift off the sheet without tearing. It’s the neatest way to produce shaped stickers and multi-piece sheets.

  • Material: reliable vinyl face with a permanent acrylic adhesive formulated for smooth, non-porous surfaces.
  • Finish: glossy surface that enhances contrast and depth without feeling overly reflective.
  • Printing: eco-solvent inks provide dense color and crisp detail for fine lines and gradients.
  • Use case: intended for indoor environments only — not waterproof. Not recommended for continuous exposure to moisture or dishwashing.
  • Application friendly: easy-peel backing and a liner that releases cleanly to help reduce bubbles and misfeeds during placement.

These stickers perform best on smooth, dust-free surfaces — think laptop lids, sealed notebooks, glass, mirrors, finished shelving and lockers. They’ll stick well where the surface is flat and clean; avoid rough wood, silicone, fabric, and heavily textured paint.

  1. Clean: remove dust and oils with a lint-free cloth. For stubborn grime, use a mild soap and water rinse; let the area dry completely.
  2. Align: peel a corner, position carefully, then press the center down first.
  3. Smooth: work outward from the center with a soft card or a thumb to push air out and ensure the edges set down firmly.

Tip: give the adhesive 24 hours to fully settle before heavy handling. These are not designed for outdoor or wet conditions.

  • Gently dust with a soft, dry cloth, moving from the center outward to avoid scratching the gloss.
  • For light marks, a barely damp microfiber will lift residue — blot, don’t scrub, and dry right away.
  • Avoid bleach, solvents, abrasive pads, and steam; moisture or harsh chemicals can lift edges and fade inks.

Reminder: these stickers are not waterproof. Keep them away from sinks, outdoor exposure, and dishwasher cycles to maintain adhesion and finish.

Sizes are measured across the sticker’s longest side. For example, a 3″ sticker is 3 inches across its largest dimension (height or width, depending on the shape).

The kiss-cut follows the sticker’s outline for a tidy border; complex shapes can show small variances, but the advertised measurement refers to the maximum edge-to-edge length.
