Illustration of SS Bannockburn struggling in dark, stormy seas at night. Black and white photograph of a windowless room with floral wallpaper. A lamp hangs from the ceiling, a large cabinet is on the right wall, and a large sink is on the left wall. In the center is a large table with an array of laboratory instruments. Test tubes, beakers, and other less recognizable instruments are handled by two women in nurse's uniforms and a man in a lab coat.
Canadian soldiers disembark from their attack helicopter in single file. Equipped with weapons and combat gear, they are determined, focussed and ready for the many adventures awaiting them in foreign territory. Black and white photograph of Mississaga St. taken from the right corner of West St. and Mississaga St. The street is milling with people and vendors, numerous trees, and the sign for “Miller's Ladies Wear” is clearly visible.
A spread of various traditional dishes on a table with rice, curries, and bananas on a green woven mat. The food is served in earthenware pots. Black and white photograph of a man in a suit standing in a large room with machinery. An image drawn using Telidon featuring a computer screen and keyboard. A butterfly is on the computer’s screen.
