In 1967, Montreal hosted Man and His World/Terre des Hommes. By far the most successful cultural event ever produced in Canada, it was embraced by the public and seen as a new type of exhibition for the new global age.

Craig Moyes is Reader in French and Quebec Studies at King’s College London and director of the Quebec and French Canada Research Network (QaFCaRN). He was co-editor with Steven Palmer of Expo 67 and its World: Staging the Nation in the Crucible of Globalisation (McGill-Queen’s University Press, 2022).
