Scarlet Point Blanket

The HBC Point Blanket has been called many things throughout its history: an essential trade item, an enduring emblem of Canada, a carrier of disease, and a symbol of colonialism. We begin to acknowledge the many layers of symbolism the blanket embodies in history, art, pop culture, and commerce.

Moving forward, 100% of net proceeds of all Point Blanket sales will go to Indigenous Peoples. Hudson’s Bay Foundation and the Gord Downie & Chanie Wenjack Fund have partnered to launch Oshki Wupoowane | The Blanket Fund.
