Another New Year

canada150

Welcome to the new level, welcome to 2017, welcome to the year of the 150th anniversary of Canada.

I'm just about old enough to remember the centennial celebration in 1967 in Montreal, with the International Exposition Expo 67, so even though I've lived abroad for a number of the intervening 50 years, I feel some sort of connection to this event and I will certainly seek out some celebrations during this year to show I feel that this is a most excellent country :-)

It's been fun being along for the ride for the past 50 years, and while it's a bit sobering to reflect that I will most likely not be around anymore in 2067 for the 200th anniversary, I intend to be along for a great many years still.

So, to my friends all over the world and all over this country: I wish you a happy 2017, and I invite you to join me in wishing this country a happy anniversary!
