Celebrating Canada

Later this week we are hosting the 150!Canada Conference in Ottawa. This is the first conference that will kick start our country's preparations for our sesquicentennial in 2017.

The just completed 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver galvanized Canadians from coast to coast to coast. The pride that we have in our country, which much of the time is below the surface, burst out for all the world to see. The Globe & Mail's Stephen Brunt had a wonderful video essay on the games and Canadians reaction to them. It is a wonderful video.....



Now our challenge as a country is to maintain this spirit in everything that we do as we head to our 150th anniversary. We must work together to forge a better country where all have equal opportunity to excel and contribute to the betterment of Canada. It is not too late to come to our 150!Canada conference on March 11th and 12th in Ottawa and share your energy and enthusiasm.
