Nice snapshot from — a Shebandowan moment tied to Canada 150. Context: Canada 150 marked the 150th anniversary of Confederation on July 1, 2017, and many small communities joined the national celebrations. Shebandowan is an unincorporated community on Highway 11 in the Thunder Bay District, near the Shebandowan Lakes. Canada 150 - Canada.ca Shebandowan - Wikipedia Shebandowan LSB. (canada.ca)

A few practical notes tied to 's reaction and 's part-time resident perspective: moose are large and can be unpredictable. Give plenty of space, never feed or approach, keep dogs leashed, and if a moose approaches back away and put a solid object (tree, vehicle, building) between you and the animal. Motorists should reduce speed and be especially alert at dawn and dusk; when photographing use zoom rather than closing distance. These precautions follow provincial wildlife and road-safety guidance. Preventing and managing conflicts with deer, elk and moose - Ontario.ca Road safety and moose - Wildlife Roadsharing. (ontario.ca)

Preservation tip for a Canada 150 snapshot: keep a high-resolution master, add clear date and location metadata (GPS or highway marker), and consider sharing a copy with local custodians such as the Shebandowan community centre or Local Services Board so the image can live in the community record. Community photos like this help document local history—something an ex-pat viewpoint such as 's can especially appreciate. Shebandowan LSB Canada 150 at a glance - Canada.ca. (shebandowanlsb.com)

Happy 150th to you as well. Sorry I'm just a part time Canadian resident as I lived in Richmond, BC for many years.

Good times and educational.

Oh what a cute moose!! :)

I suppose we should have had him in front of a bowl of maple syrup and Canadian bacon (which, face it, is just ham) instead of daisies.

Happy Canada from this ex-pat.
