Forgot to mention in my edit summary, that it's spelled materiel to distinguish from material. heqs 16:32, 20 May 2006 (UTC)
I can't think right now what else might be a suitable image for this article, but an also-ran from the Flag Debate doesn't seem to fit the bill; especially since that particular one is an echo of the Ontarian flag, which is why the rest of us didn't like it. Given the timeframe I'd almost say that a triptych of Diefenbaker, Pearson and Trudeau would do much better; or maybe the Katimavik pavilion at Expo '67 (the giant ashtray of the Canadian pavilion).

I think 1984 - the year of change in governing party - is a more natural point to break up the history. 1982 events flow more smoothly from this earlier time period -- JimWae ( talk) 01:05, 20 July 2008 (UTC)
My main point is that the 1982 Canada Act naturally falls in with discussions of the events dealt with in the section that begins in 1960. Btw, I moved to BC in 1969 (& have lived here since then) & I still consider the 1984 election an event that marked a significant change in Canadian history. I don't think that changes in political parties that are not in power are generally solid enough events to mark out historical "periods". I only got involved with this becuase the History_of_Canada#1960.E2.80.931984 section date kept getting changed &, incomprehensibly, was virtually empty anyway. -- JimWae ( talk) 18:05, 20 July 2008 (UTC)
There was a section in History of Canada marked as 1981 to present and the first event mentioned is/was 1987 -- So, I would not oppose 1982 as a demarcation date - as long as those events get included SOMEWHERE in the History of Canada article -- Further, there is no point to having a 1960–198? section there if it is only ONE paragraph JimWae ( talk) 18:44, 20 July 2008 (UTC)
I was referring to the History of Canada article, where 1960-198? is/was/will be especially weak -- JimWae ( talk) 20:01, 20 July 2008 (UTC)
I'm not against including the Marathon of Hope in a major Canadian history article, but I wonder if it needs to be what it is and if it needs to be a section. It's true that Terry's run galvanized Canadians in a way unique to the era and his run was a "major event" in the same way that Expo '67 and the War Measures Crisis was, though in a different way again.....in its present state, this item seems out of place, though...and he's one of our only real national heroes in the "superstar" sense of the term "national hero" for sure; he can't not be mentioned but a lot of what's here seems excessive as far as content goes, or stilted (almmost fund-raising in nature...).
