Vancouver's Expo '86 (Historic Canada)
Bill Cotter
To mark the 100th anniversary of the cityÂ?s founding and the arrival of the first trans-Canada train, VancouverÂ?s political and business leaders invited the whole world to participate in the festivities.
The result was Expo Â?86, and more than 22 million people came for the party. It took eight years of planning and hard work to transform a former railroad yard into a colourful showplace full of pavilions and shows for the six-month event, but those lucky enough to have been there would agree that it was worth it. Expo Â?86, truly a worldÂ?s fair,
included pavilions from 9 provinces and territories, 54 nations and international groups, and 3 American states. Many of CanadaÂ?s largest industries joined in, as well, to celebrate the fairÂ?s theme, Â?A World
in Movement, A World in Touch.Â? Vintage photographs recapture the fun and excitement of the largest event held to that time in British Columbia.
