The route marker sits at the centre as a vertical rounded rectangle, and the wording \u003cem\u003eTRANSCANADIENNE\u003c\/em\u003e runs across it in the French form the sign uses. Below it, a white ribbon banner carries \u003cem\u003eQUÉBEC\u003c\/em\u003e, and a white maple leaf rises above the sign. The style is flat vector, with clean edges and no shading, so each element reads at a glance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eMeaning \u0026amp; Symbolism\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe route marker identifies the national highway that links Canada's provinces, so it stands for the country's long-distance road network and the journeys it makes possible. The maple leaf and the Quebec banner tie that network to one province, marking Quebec's share of the route. The artwork follows the visual standards set by Quebec's road sign regulation under the Highway Safety Code, which is why the sign looks like something drivers on the road would recognise. It is a modern piece that treats a working piece of infrastructure as a piece of regional identity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eLife on the Road Mug\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA road sign is built to be read from a moving car, but this one works best up close. Turn the mug in your hands and the marker, leaf and banner pass by one after another, like mile markers on a long drive. It is a good match for anyone who has ever followed a route number across the map, or who still needs a reminder of where they are in the country when the coffee runs low.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Go Mug Yourself","offers":[{"title":"11oz","offer_id":53184447217944,"sku":"GMY-MUG-TRNCND-11OZ-2","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"15oz","offer_id":53184447250712,"sku":"GMY-MUG-TRNCND-15OZ-1FPDN","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0703\/5204\/4312\/files\/trans-canada-highway-quebec-canada-road-sign-black-coffee-mug-GMY-MUG-TRNCND-11OZ-2-front.webp?v=1794207553","url":"https:\/\/gomugyourself.com\/products\/trans-canada-highway-quebec-canada-road-sign-black-coffee-mug","provider":"Go Mug Yourself","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
