    I heard about Expo 67. No, was not there.
    Nice that you have memories of the 100th and now being able to experience the 150th

    I was born in 1961, so don't remember much about the Centennial - I do remember learning the CA-NA-DA song in school, and we got a coin.

    Very cool to know that my son, and some of you young'uns, will be around for the Bicentennial of Canada!

    Yes, as a matter of fact I first met the man I married 37 years later, bless his soul in the Centennial summer. We both went to Expo 67 but at different times. We both lived in the centennial year and also in Canada's 150th.

    If I live that long, I'd be 103...By then it might be a fairly common age to reach.
