150!Canada is an initiative from the Institute for the Public Administration of Canada (IPAC) to imagine, plan and celebrate Canada's sesquicentennial in 2017. It will begin with a conference of public servants, business leaders and non-governmental organizations in 2010.
The concept is based on the Canadian Centennial year celebrations which helped to define Canada’s modern identity. Planning for Canada's centennial celebrations began in the late 1950s as an initiative by private organizations.
A smaller commemoration took place in 1992 as Canada celebrated its 125th anniversary.
