Thank you for creating this. I never attended the actual Expo, but through videos like this, you have taken me there. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. If I could take a trip anywhere, I’d love to go (back in time to) there. But, that’s not possible. I’ve been to the site numerous times, and I could always sense the excitement and hope and joy and amazement that was present all those years ago. I’m envious of all of those who were able to experience it first hand.
Thank you so much for creating this video. You are completely right when you describe Expo 67. The excitement leading up to it and then finally that special magic summer. I had the honour of visiting Expo twice and I can even still remember the dates. September 29th and October 13th 1967. I was 12 years old. Those two days changed my life. They taught me to dream and realise that anything was possible. A 12 year old boy saw the world spread out before my eyes. The excitement, the crowds, the sights, the sounds and I was there and saw it all. The video you produced is just a great memory for me to relive those days. THANK YOU.
I was lucky enough that my parents took us in 1967 when I was 6-1/2 years old. The story and photos bring back wonderful but distant memories. Thank you!
We visited there when I was 10. I still have good memories as I'd never seen anything like it before. It was a very promising view of what the future might look like.
I was almost 12 years old during Expo. Like you, I was amazed every time I went there. It truly was another world. My dad had a season passport and so we were there every weekend. And then when he was on his vacation from work we were there 4 or 5 days a week for the whole month of August. My dad and I were there on the last day before it closed. Even at that age I felt a sense of sadness knowing that one of the best summers of my life was coming to an end. Thank you for posting this. It truly brought many great memories.
Expo 67 and the subsequent years of Man And His World are some of my earliest memories and I'm haunted by them to this day. Even as a young kid, I sensed the harmony and optimism people speak of.
I was 15 and got to go to Expo twice from New Brunswick. I spent a total of about 3 weeks there and went to Expo every day. I loved the magic of that place and even got my first French kiss. Wish there was a time machine!
My family and I went there 7 times in '67, I was 8 years old and remember so much of it, naturally my favorite part was LaRonde the amusement park section of it. The Gyrotron was something to behold! Also the restaurant there that served buffalo burgers, they were delicious!
I was 15 when our family went. We took the Metro from the southside of the river and when we got off it was like going to Disneyland. My brother and I would try our best to get our passports stamped as many times as possible. Great memories for Me, thanks for sharing your memories and photos.

even their tacky jingle bellows those damn 'hallmarks' of Corporateria's .. I mean, do you reckon these neo-feudally cleptoparasitic barons could've ever got away with launching COVID-67..? 🌬brrrRrr🌬
