Birth Anniversaries come and go. We celebrate, we sing a song and we indulge in merrymaking. In case of famous individuals, we think about their life and work and re-appraise their achievements. In case of nations, anniversaries provide an opportunity to reflect on the past and chart out future course of action. Canada 150 (1867-2017) was such an Anniversary. It provided Canada an opportunity to reflect on its past, particularly its treatment of the indigenous people. Canada has come out as a stronger and caring nation as a result of it.
