"I'm working with the Institute of Public Administration of Canada to host the first major conference this March in Ottawa to begin imagining and planning Canada's Sesquicentennial in 2017. If you need an idea of the magnitude of this anniversary, it's basically akin to running two or three concurrent Olympics — for a year. So it's a big deal and its going to require a lot of work if we want it to turn out better than the snooze that was Canada's 125."
