Vintage Canada: 1984-1996

[MplsTodd]

Here's another series of my scanned slides from the '80s and '90s. Growing up in Minnesota, I always looked favorably to our neighbor to the north. It helped that from a very young age, I always thought they had the coolest looking flag. Over the decades I've paid many visits to Canada and have always enjoyed it. Here's a collection from various trips during the 1980s and 1990s.
