The Post One Monument in Toronto's Queen's Park commemorates Canada's centennial. Unveiled in 1967, the monument functions as a geodetic survey marker and has a time capsule that is slated to be opened in 2067.[1]
The monument is a stainless-steel plate, .97 by 2.29 metres (3.2 by 7.5 ft), mounted on a flat concrete slab.[2] A .96 by 1.46 metres (3.1 by 4.8 ft) bronze map of the country is affixed to the stainless steel plate.[2] Similar memorials are also situated in the capitals of other Canadian provinces, with each of these monuments also having inscribed the distance from the memorials to the various provincial capitals.[2] Surveyor tools such as survey markers were also sculpted onto the plate.[2]
In addition to commemorating the centennial the monument also holds a time capsule scheduled to be opened in 2067.[2]
