In 2026 the Canada Postal Service continues its Celebrating
Lunar New Year series with a Year of the Fire Horse. According to the Chinese zodiac, the adventurous and fun-loving Horse is a fire sign, and as the element for the year 2026, Fire further intensifies the Horse’s dynamic spirit and high energy, resulting in personalities that are typically bold and decisive, smart and style-savvy. Adorned with lucky jasmine flowers, the Fire Horse’s dashing confidence is evident on this 15.43 g. pure gold coin, where, undaunted by the blazing sun or what lies ahead, the hardworking equine steps assuredly towards success without breaking its stride. The Chinese Zodiac
operates on a 12-year cycle, with each year represented by a different
animal. In 2026, we enter the Year of the Fire Horse, the fifth animal in the
zodiac cycle. |

HORSE year people are popular and hard workers. They have financially sound minds and are adept at handling money matters. Whether male or female, Horse personalities feel more comfortable in the company of their own kind. They are independent and self-willed individuals who never take advice. Horse people should choose a field as a dentist, financier, banker, or politician. |

[DIHM SUHM] Cantonese for "heart's delight," dim sum includes a variety of small, mouth-watering dishes such as steamed or fried dumplings, shrimp balls, steamed buns and Chinese pastries. Dim sum — standard fare in tea houses — can be enjoyed any time of the day. Unlike most dining establishments, servers in a dim sum eatery do not take orders, per se. Instead, they walk among the tables with carts or trays of kitchen-fresh food. Diners simply point to the item they want, which is served on small plates or in baskets. Each item usually has a set price. At the end of the meal, the check is tallied by counting the dishes on the table. Some dim sum restaurants add the price of each dish to a check that remains on the table, clearing dishes as they are emptied. |
