The projects ranged from special one-time events to local improvement projects, such as the construction of municipal arenas and parks. The Centennial Flame was also added to Parliament Hill. Children born in 1967 were declared Centennial babies.

British Columbia's history was built on small towns with industries that were at sometimes good and sometimes not so good. Pretty well as was the case in Europe and USA. They had jobs that paid well allowing people to move up the economic scale.
How things change as almost everywhere we travel, tourism and service sector jobs dominate.
