"[The Fathers of Confederation Memorial Building] is a tribute to those famous men who founded our Confederation. But it is also dedicated to the fostering of those things that enrich the mind and delight the heart, those intangible but precious things that give meaning to a society and help create from it a civilization and a culture."
Prime Minister Lester B. Pearson, October 6, 1964.

This piece which stands outside of the centre does not have a title plaque or any readily visible markings allowing for identification of the piece.
It stands about 3 metres in height and shows a significiant level of effort in its construction. It's worth finding and having a look if you are at the centre.
