The Traveler… O Canada!

Earlier this week I traveled to New York City by the way of The New York Times dated July 2, 1867 where I found the headline “The Dominion of Canada” with the subhead “Inauguration of the Confederation — A General Holiday — Lord Monck Sworn in — Review of Troops”. “This day has given birth to the political infant, the Dominion of Canada…” This was the announcement of the birth of Canada.
Happy (belated) birthday Canada!

Here we are 14th July 2017 and not one mention of a paper announcing WAR in 1917
I would have expected some items to celebrate a century.
Maybe the slogan Lest we forget has been forgotten
Shame

Hello John – Whereas I do agree the current interest in WWI is, sadly, practically nil, we did a post on this back in early April:
