Default Re: photo from '67 Montreal Expo

Mr. Drapeau engineered a lifelong debt for the good citizens of Quebec with his folly of a sports centre called the Big "O" but became known as the BIG OWE due to ridiculous cost over runs and a debt tha is still being paid off for a building that while looking good was an engineering disaster..
lol
much like the Skydome/Rogers Centre..that folly will be part of my great great great grandchildrens tax bills in Ontario.
My mum went to Expo '67 but would have never crossed the street to see Lightfoot.

I was but 12 and unaware of The Man at that point in my life.
