All coins are equal but some are more equal than others

Looks like it'll be coloured and commemorating nothing. I wonder how serious Canadian collectors look at such issues.

An unidentified coin is a piece of metal. An identified coin is a piece of history.

Very similar to the recent Australian releases which are sporting the indigenous themes

They will be used to colored coins. As for "commemorating nothing", the coin refers to Canada's National Indigenous Peoples Day which is on 21 June. Sure, you may say that is something that occurs every year ;) but at least there is an occasion for the piece.
