The irony in "Totem" by Thomas King lies in the fact that the protagonist, an Indigenous man named Leo, works at a museum displaying Native artifacts despite feeling disconnected from his own cultural identity. This juxtaposition highlights the complexities of cultural appropriation and assimilation faced by Indigenous people in a colonial society.

The theme of this short story. "Totem" is that traditions change in order to merge into the main society. In a simple way of saying, it explores the story behind the assimilation of the First Nations by Canadian Governments. You could say, the theme is Change vs. Tradition vs. Choice. Basically, Thomas King uses the technique of understatement to express the feeling of that Canadian Government is not taking care of its people. The government only accepts the problem, but not actually solving it. Just like the replacement of the First Nations to the reserve lands. Correct me, if I made any mistakes. ^.^
A totem is rebuilt after all totems have been destroyed. A randomly selected totem will be rebuilt, and will always require three gems; it will have a full set of teeth and the base layout will also change.
A vehicle for solidarity, such as a totem, king or constitution.

Dramatic irony is a literary device used in which the reader is informed about some facts which are unknown to the reader. It brings the readers interest in the story. In this story, one instance of literary device is when we know about the hundredth tiger has been brought and not actually killed by the king.
