50 yr anniversary of Expo 67... I mentioned this to a friend who is a bit older than me... he recounted to me how he had worked at the world's fair for the NFB as a summer job and (specifically on the Labarynth exhibit) and went on to an amazing career in theatre and TV... thank you once again to Expo & the people of Montreal... the ideals of a world fair have never shone brighter than this... this retro print is from @inabstracto on #queenwest in Toronto... #montreal #nfb #ontariariario... #giveusaplacetostand #labarynth #expo67 #manandhisworld

TBT ... photo print of the monorail at EXPO 67 passing by the USA pavilion... great time with the World's Fair going and the Maple Leafs winning Mr Stanley's Cup that year... also a time of turmoil in the world but as well, a time of optimism when we thought of technology in terms of the Jetsons... the 24 hour work week was predicted to come about within 40 years... hmmm... photo print is from the store INabstracto on Queen St W... #expo67 #monorail #montreal #manandhisworld

Until next time, #Montreal, where even your humble power stations are interesting to look at, and harken back to optimistic visions of a future made of blocky #concrete... *********** #Montreal #mtl #mtlmoments #514 #travel #quebec #canada #CanCon #TheFuture #manandhisworld #expo67 #brutalism #modernism #futurism #publicworks #jemesouviens
