At our last meeting, we had witnesses from the Trans Canada Trail. This project is certainly going to become one of the best commemorative symbols of the celebrations of the 150th anniversary. However, one has to be realistic and note that these efforts began 20 years ago and it will have taken 25 years for the trail to be completed.
As for the creation of historical sites, or sites that seem to be good potential parks to mark the 150th anniversary of Canada, that is certainly a long process. If we are aiming for the summer of 2017, by which date should the decision be taken? I imagine that if something has to be built, that can take quite a long time, but if all that needs to be done is to put up a few explanatory plaques and lay some paving stones, it would not take as long.
