Canada Cards
Description: The 1986 World Exposition on Transportation and Communication, or simply Expo 86, was a World’s Fair held in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada from May 2 until October 13, 1986. The fair, the theme of which was “Transportation and Communication: World in Motion – World in Touch,” coincided with Vancouver’s centennial and was held on the north shore of False Creek. It was the second time that Canada held a World’s Fair, the first being Expo 67 in Montreal (during the Canadian Centennial). Expo Ernie was the mascot of the event and while often mistakenly referred to as an astronaut, Ernie was actually supposed to be a robot, or perhaps an astronaut robot?

Description: Honest Ed's was a landmark discount store in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. It was named for its proprietor, Ed Mirvish, who opened the store in 1948 and oversaw its operations for almost 60 years until his death in 2007. The store continued to operate until it closed on December 31, 2016. By 1968 the store was grossing $14 million annually and gained fame for its marketing stunts, including loss leader specials. Mirvish's annual turkey giveaway before Christmas always received a lot of attention, and the birthday parties he threw for himself became neighborhood events with free cake, hot dogs, candy, and giveaways.
Description: The Edmonton Trappers were a minor league baseball team in Edmonton, Alberta. They were a part of the Triple-A level in the Pacific Coast League, from 1981 to 2004.

They were also the only team to win a PCL championship, and first to win any championship, under affiliation with the Angels. Home games were played at Telus Field in downtown Edmonton.
