Geocache Description:

Celebrating Canada's 150th birthday, cache by cache, year by year.

February 13th - FLQ terrorists bomb the Montreal Stock Exchange.
July 7th - The Official Languages Ace makes French and English equal throughout the Canadian government.
October 23rd - at 821 am HMCS KOOTENAY (DDE 258) suffers the worst peacetime accident in the history of the Navy during routine full-power trials when her starboard gearbox reaches an estimated temperature of 650 degrees Celsius and explodes. The explosion and the ensuing fire killed 9 crew members and injured at least 53 others. The resultant investigation created a new exit within the ship...the 'Kootenay Hatch' so that sailors would not be trapped in a similar situation in the future.
