Cool pic, and yep, the Chrysler is a '67.
The work in the background looks like they are building the old walk-through section with the steps, etc., that is now gone. Don't remember exactly when that was done...
That being said, front plates were required up until the mid '90s and that car definitely does not have a white plate on it, which means that the pic could be pre '72 (although, it could be an out-of-province car). The car is missing a piece of trim on its front fender (just behind the wheel) which indicates it's not likely a new car (an expensive New Yorker such as this would likely be repaired if sustained damage or lost trim if it were in its first few years of life).
Plate last used in '71 (image source: Service Nova Scotia

In the lower left of the picture you can see the guardrail for the Cogswell Interchange, which was finished in '70. So maybe the photo is from '71? The workers are wearing short sleeves and the driver's window is rolled down on the car, so... summer '71?
