Google crowns national winner and three grade group winners of Doodle 4 Google Canada

Google Canada revealed the national winner and three grade group winners of this year’s  Doodle 4 Google contest. More than 12,000 students from across the country submitted doodles around the theme “What I see for Canada’s future is…”. Young artists imagined a country where robots could cure disease, others dreamed of living on Mars, while some saw a world united by nature.
