   I would like to see either pictures or artifacts of the different styles of architect across the nation. Each area has (had) its own unique style that depicts the different cultures of Canada.

   I would like to see a history of working people in Canada. Highlight the jobs, labour laws, unions, etc. I don’t think enough Canadians are aware of the diversity of work in Canada and how their career choices are shaped by history.

   Political history, events that shaped the entire nation. Artifacts from the old Parliament buildings. Our former national flag (the Red Ensign). The present museum has too heavy a focus on indigenous people’s history.

    We would like to see the original contract that bound Canada to the United Nations. We feel that it is a very critical aspect of modern Canadian History, because the United Nations currently has a larger impact on our world today. Canada has also contributed more peacekeeping operations than any other member nation, and we feel that it helped Canada gain recognition on the World Stage.

    Your “Iroquois” pot is a St. Lawrence Iroquoian style vessel. The Iroquois lived in New York State – not Canada! For the sake of Canadian history, please correct this classification.

    I would like to see a re-creation of the committee room where MPs deliberated which submission to choose for the Canadian flag-there were hundreds of submissions from across the country. This would be circa 1968

    I would be interested in hearing about the objects that are precious to ordinary Canadians. The stories behind these can be fascinating.

    One of the most recognized and enduring symbols of our country is a canoe. What about Bill Mason’s canoe, or Pierre Trudeau’s, if it is still around.
