A square graphic with a soft gradient background blending light green in the upper left to light blue on the right. In the upper left corner is the CGNA logo: a stylized red maple leaf above the letters "CGNA" in bold black, with the text "Canadian Gerontological Nursing Association" in small print beside it.
Centered at the top of the graphic, the word "HAPPY" is written in a handwritten font. Below it, "NURSES" appears in large bold blue text, followed by "WEEK!!!" in large bold black text. Beneath that, the date "MAY 11–17, 2026" is in bold orange text.
In the center of the graphic, a message in dark grey reads: "CGNA thanks nurses for the expertise, empathy, and advocacy they bring to older adults and their families every day."
Below the message, in bold blue italic text: "Your work makes a meaningful difference!!!"
At the bottom center of the graphic is a black line illustration of a stethoscope styled to form a heart shape with its tubing, symbolizing care and compassion.

Aerial photograph of the Toronto skyline on a clear, sunny autumn day. The iconic CN Tower rises prominently in the centre of the frame, its slender concrete shaft and pod-shaped observation deck topped by a tall broadcast antenna reaching into a vivid blue sky dotted with scattered white clouds. The downtown core stretches across the background, filled with a dense cluster of modern glass-and-steel skyscrapers in shades of teal, silver, and grey. In the mid-ground, lower-rise residential and mixed-use buildings transition toward the waterfront, where patches of autumn foliage in gold, orange, and green soften the urban landscape. The shoreline of Lake Ontario curves along the right side of the image, with a marina, docked boats, and a historic concrete grain elevator visible in the foreground. A ferry or tour boat can be seen on the calm blue water. The overall scene conveys Toronto's dynamic blend of urban density, natural greenery, and lakefront setting on a bright day.
