Well, I understood two of them. Hockey and Terry Fox.
The hand pic is a Children's program from long ago.....The Friendly Giant.
The other is Gord Downie from the Tragically Hip.

Not just hockey - that is Team Canada winning against USSR in 1972
"The Goal"
The famous photograph of Henderson by Frank Lennon
In the final minute of play, with Phil Esposito, Yvan Cournoyer and Peter Mahovlich out on the ice, Paul Henderson stood up at the bench and called Mahovlich off the ice as he was skating by. "I jumped on the ice and rushed straight for their net. I had this strange feeling that I could score the winning goal", recalls Henderson.[119] Bobby Clarke was supposed to replace Esposito, but Phil didn't come off ("There was no way I was coming off the ice in that situation" Esposito said). Cournoyer picked up a puck that had been passed around the boards by the Soviets in a clearing attempt. He missed Henderson with a pass, but two Soviets mishandled the puck in the corner and Esposito shot the puck on Tretiak.
Henderson, who had fallen behind the net, got up and went to the front of the net where he was uncovered. Henderson recovered the rebound of Esposito's shot, shot the puck and was stopped, but recovered the rebound. With Tretiak down, he put the puck past Tretiak with only 34 seconds to play. Foster Hewitt's voice rose in excitement as he called the winning goal:[120]
“ Cournoyer has it on that wing. Here's a shot. Henderson made a wild stab for it and fell. Here's another shot. Right in front. They score! Henderson has scored for Canada! ”
— Foster Hewitt, calling the play-by-play description of Henderson's goal."[121]
The scene was captured on film by cameraman Frank Lennon. The picture became iconic in Canada.
